Quality Goods, Now in Higher Quantity

WHY WE LOVE 'EM: The brothers Corsillo are all about fetish-worthy pieces made with a fanatical attention to detail.

WHAT TO EXPECT: Wool sneakers, camo-lined tote bags, square-bottom ties—plus the complete look you see here.

THEIR TAKE: “Quality materials are our hallmark,” says Emil Corsillo, “so it wouldn't have made sense to come out with a Gap collection that's been taken down five notches. We nitpicked to find the quality we always look for.”

NSF

A Wardrobe with a Dirty Mind

WHY WE LOVE 'EM: Nick Friedberg and Jamie Haller deliver beat-to-hell denim, chinos, and tees.

WHAT TO EXPECT: NSF's whole Gap collaboration (which includes a mean buffalo plaid shirt) has a lived-in, SoCal feel. These dye-splotched trousers were inspired by the Dickies that founder Nick Friedberg wore as a skate rat in Los Angeles.

THEIR TAKE: “Our stuff's not much

of a departure,” says Friedberg. “We took what Gap does and beat it up, distressed it, got it all dirty.”

Stampd

STANLEY CHOW

Streetwear, Meet Sportswear

WHY WE LOVE HIM: Because we're not entirely sure if Chris Stamp's stuff is for the gym or for brunch. (So we wear it to both.)

WHAT TO EXPECT: Clothes like this shorts-and-leggings combo are built for a restless, go-anywhere twenty-first century where impromptu meetings are as likely to take place at a coffee shop as in a conference room.

HIS TAKE: “Gap is all about that classic Americana look—and then we wanted to give it our edge.”

David Hart

The Rebirth of Doo-Wop Cool

WHY WE LOVE HIM: For his unapologetic geezer sensibility, which brings the '50s swinging back to life.

WHAT TO EXPECT: Proper raincoats. Tweed blazers. Horizontal-striped neckties. Oh, and retro polos like the ones Hart's granddad used to wear.

HIS TAKE: “We've been making these polos since the beginning, so it's only natural we'd do one for Gap. It's the kind of thing you can throw on to go golfing, or go to the beach, or go for a drive.”
