Spring came early this year, and that’s a good thing. It’s time to put away the heavy woolens and embrace lightweight wools, linens and silk blends. And just in time, we’re stocked up with beautiful sport coats from our Italian resource – Canali. This has become a prized collection for us and for our discerning customers. When it comes to the fabrics and colors, Canali can’t be beat. And the silhouette pleases the gentlemen looking for classic styles with a hint of the contemporary.
Make a point to drop in and check out the following selections. For added inspiration, we’ve created some looks for your consideration.
Beautiful blue and brown houndstooth….so many options!
A great sport jacket for the spring and summer. We absolutely love this take on a teal blue jacket with various colors of windowpane. Take your pick and pair up with some cream dress trousers or your favorite pair of AG Denim.
This mid-blue suit is perfect for the coming warm weather. Pair up with some burnished brown shoes and it’s very Italian indeed. Increasingly, we’re seeing men go back to the suit but leave the tie at home. Therefore, we suggest that you start treating the pocket square as the new neck wear. It’s a splash of color and a healthy dose of sophistication.
Now you’re ready to take on the spring!

A beautiful one of a kind from Alden …
Just in from the shoemakers at Alden is this whiskey toned, pebble grain dress loafer. Shoes from Alden, as many of you know, are a work of art, but the special leather takes this shoe to another level. All the hallmarks of handcrafted artistry will be evident upon your initial inspection, but it’s when you slip these beautiful shoes on your feet that you will feel the expertise of an artist’s hand. These loafers will look great with flannels or cords that are paired with your favorite sport jacket. If your closet allows, these shoes will work with any number of country tweed suits. And as we are showing here, they are nicely enhanced with new socks from Nigel Knox.
This is an exclusive make up shoe just for M. S. McClellan, so when they are gone …. they are gone.
Come in soon and try a pair on!
The details matter …..
It’s true in all things, but even more so in the sartorial arts….the details matter. It’s the small touches that often get noticed as the mark of a well dressed man. Little things like pocket squares, hosery, and braces all make a statement of their own. So do the little treasures featured in this blog. Cuff links truly allow your personality to come through with equal parts elegance and whimsy.
And sometimes, as with cuff links from Jan Leslie, the details are really cool like mother of pearl tusks, moving bulldog mouths, spinning globes, precision painting and the like. So these cuff links aren’t just a means of expression they’re collectibles and heirlooms as well.
As we’re about to enter into the season of giving, the following images might provide some inspiration for the clothes horse on your list who “has everything.”
Please be aware, that there is only one of each shown. so if you want it don’t delay!

Fall cannot get here soon enough…..
Sooner than late, you have to believe that the weather is going to turn. With the leaves already turning color and falling there simply must be a cold front on the way, right? We sure hope so as it’s time for sweaters, flannels, pullovers, outerwear, gloves and the like. Here at M. S. McClellan, we are locked and loaded for the season, and it is with that in mind that we present you with some inspiration to make the best of this fall!
If you see something you like, never hesitate to give us a call. We’re always happy to help.
