Check Mate
Maybe it’s the hint of Canadiana cool or an ode to camping in style, but black-and-red checkered patterns (a.k.a. buffalo plaids) get us every time.
The hint of check Tommy Ton captured during the men’s collections in Milan is sublime and you can find buffalo plaid jackets aplenty in vintage stores around town.
But with its oversized collar, slim fit and crop cut, the Alternative Apparel jacket ($153) is our pick for this trend and a far cry from your father’s baggy cabin work shirt.
