Why You Bought It: March is a fickle month, but for the last decade or so, GQ has counted on one constant to get us through it: a new drop from Uniqlo U, as sure a sign as any that spring is coming, and not a moment too soon. You all seem to be taken by its wide pants, so light and crisp that they should probably come with a lime.

What You Should Buy Next: Quite literally everything else from Uniqlo U. Or even another pair of wide-leg pants.

The Better Skate Shoes: Village PM 1PM

The Story: This Tiny French Skate Brand Is Making Sneakers Everyone Wants

Why You Bought It: Cementing their shoes in the exclusive cadre of skate classics isn’t promised, but what makes Village PM more likely than others is the fact that it’s nabbed dozens of coveted fashion accounts, too. From Dover Street Market to HAVEN, Village PM is spinning its wheels faster than the competition, and it all comes down to the refreshing and innovative design. Plus, the brand designed their shoes to be easily repaired by a cobbler. Once you’ve done enough tres flips and the rubber’s wearing thin, a cobbler can simply peel off that layer of rubber and apply a new rubber layer so your shoes can keep on pushing.

What You Should Buy Next: While the desert boot is getting a lot of love, we also have to give props to Clarks’ Wallabees, an icon that’s been around for decades and a silhouette we can’t imagine ever going away.
