Mr. Porter is increasingly becoming our favorite men’s luxury-goods website. Ever since the site launched in 2011, Mr. Porter has been offering some of the finest items that everyman should invest in. Whether it’s clothing or accessories ranging from shaving kits to luggage, Mr. Porter is the ultimate one-stop shop for men. And, the recent capsule with Marni only proves how fantastic of a shop Mr. Porter truly is.
Marni is a Milan-based brand that was founded in 1994 by Consuelo Castiglioni her husband Gianni. Over the years, the fashion house has earned a reputation as an ‘insider’s brand’. It’s been a well-kept secret that has been enjoyed by creative men who admire the sophisticated, yet offbeat, designs.
With sweater season officially among us, Marni has created an exclusive collection for Mr. Porter for Fall/Winter 2013.
Inside the collection are six vintage sportswear pieces – two jerseys, two cardigans and two backpacks. The capsule takes us back to the ski lodges of the ’70s, but the updated look makes this an essnetial purchase for the contemporary man. This simple line is highlighted by the raglan-sleeved cardigans made from jersey with a bonded, double-faced construction. Also included are wool crew necks from a single layer of fabric and canvas backpacks with a leather trim.
You’re going to have pay a pretty penny for these items in this exclusive collection, but incredible and lesser known luxury pieces aren’t supposed to come cheap. So do yourself a favor and pick up anything from this stellar collection by heading over to the Mr. Porter website. You definitely won’t have buyers remorse.
