At Sandro, Fall promises to offer a more generalized array than last season’s ’90s-skater-influenced pieces. Ilan Chétrite, who oversees Sandro’s menswear branch, mentioned a (very of-the-moment) conscious calibration of tailoring and streetwear nods. The results are a straightforward, usable, and unambiguous wardrobe. With well over 500 points of sale worldwide, this sort of quality daywear makes sense for Sandro; mass volume needs an application that’s digestible and uncomplicated. But, that being said, this company’s output doesn’t really change all that much from season to season, so if you’re looking to Sandro for spark . . . look elsewhere.
Comfortable candor came through in a micro-houndstooth open-collar jacket, or an oversize knit fisherman’s sweater. Pants were slightly wider, while a check motif was unfurled over a puffer jacket or a sneaky flannel shirt (which featured more of that puffer insulation, concealed inside). The hallmark items were an Arctic white duffle coat and a matte-black insulated hooded top. Plain and simple—it does the trick.
