Your Spring Guide to Wearing Things

We just spoke to spring. It’s looking for you. And it wants you to get dressed. For ballparks. For outdoor merrymaking. For classical concerts guest starring Jason Alexander. And it’s on its way now, so throw some clothes on. These should do...

The Item: A Very Baseball Belt
THE EVENT: APR 4, HOME OPENER

The Item: A Very Baseball Belt

So you didn’t learn needlepoint this winter. It’s okay. Just outsource the task of hand-stitching little bats and baseballs onto a belt to these guys. And feel free to loosen it up a notch after that fourth Fenway Frank.

The Item: A Jock-Worthy Extra Layer
THE EVENT: APR 16, BRUINS PLAYOFFS

The Item: A Jock-Worthy Extra Layer

We say: Bruins in the playoffs. You say: cashmere cable-knit cardigan. Wow, that was the complete wrong answer. Leave it at home and don something more appropriate for contact-sport spectating. Like this sweatshirt born from Todd Snyder’s collaboration with Champion.

The Item: Shoes for Running/Barhopping
THE EVENT: APR 21, MARATHON MONDAY

The Item: Shoes for Running/Barhopping

These American-made, retro New Balance runners would be great for completing a marathon. Turns out, they’re just as good for watching one or even, you know, walking into a barroom. That’s what you call product versatility.

The Item: Double-Breasted Nonchalance
THE EVENT: MAY 7, POPS OPENING NIGHT

The Item: Double-Breasted Nonchalance

Nothing says “light classical American orchestra” like a lightweight, double-breasted blazer with peak lapels. Okay, so maybe that didn’t make sense. But this year’s celebrity guest performer is Jason Alexander. And you’ve got to look your best for Jason Alexander.

The Item: Red Shorts with Tiny Martinis
THE EVENT: MAY 26, MEMORIAL DAY

The Item: Red Shorts with Tiny Martinis

If you’re going to do this whole weekend-on-the-Cape thing, just go for it. That would mean Nantucket reds. Preferably shorts. And preferably covered with some sort of whimsical pattern. Martini glasses should do the job.
