OUTFIT OF THE DAY

The “Summer Fatigue” Look

Max Israel (commentary) and Gui Mendes (video) . June 4, 2025

Here's a video of me showing this Outfit Of The Day on Youtube – and you can see these pieces together in one group here.  

Today’s look is what the Wall Street Journal Style Section calls “summer fatigue” — military-inspired, stylish looks for summer. Cotton twill on both top and bottom, relaxed but pulled-together. It’s casual, rugged, and made to move through the day with ease.
 
I went with a Dark Military Olive Lagos Canvas Work Shirt (no leather pocket here, but you can add it if you want that extra detail), and paired it with a White Lotus Becker Short. Light on the bottom, darker up top — don’t be afraid to flip the usual script. It works. 
 
This combo feels sharp. It’s the kind of thing you can wear on a travel day, to lunch, or a casual dinner and know you’re walking in with presence. You’ll feel good. You’ll look ready. And yeah — you’ll probably get a few compliments along the way.
 
Try it out and let me know what you think.
