Having a Moment

Flap Pockets
for Fall

At this point, when so many brands seem to have finally mastered the subtle art of a trim-yet-not-tight fit, there's not a whole lot of innovation expected from your shirts. That said, we're pleased to see a preponderance of shirts this season—from bengal stripe oxfords to chambrays to plaids—featuring a flap pocket on their chests. While not a new invention, the old school touch is certainly a refreshing look for fall.

Epaulet, $130; Levi's, $69.50; Brooks Brothers, $79.50; Gap, $49.50
