The color palette for Tod’s fall men’s collection says it all: chocolate brown, warm honey, marble stone and earthy sand. Yes, it’s all about distinct yet classic bags, many in exotic skins like crocodile and python, that exude a richness that only Tod’s can create. A key piece is the transversal 24-hour bag, designed not only for the weekend but as a functional must-have for any moment of the day, including the office. Tod’s bags are always seasonless and, while formal in appearance, have a relaxed appeal that makes them so contemporary. Whether or not your budget affords you a leather or croc tote, one thing I love about Tod’s bags is how they wear over time. I love that the weekender duffel is structured but relaxed enough to sit casually on the shoulder, thanks to its extended strap. The navy blue briefcase is also terribly chic; the rounded handle keeps with the ultraslim trend design is reverting back to while the solid buckle closure is bold yet discreet. It’s a bag I’d be proud to own!
