Comfort and style is what we all want in men’s clothing and J Crew is well-known for catering to all our needs.  A prime example of this would be the brand new Sun-Faded Stanton shorts which provides ultimate comfort.  These shorts have been washed for over 300 minutes making them feel like your favorite shorts that you have had forever and love wearing.  The dyed material was also treated to give them a vintage look.  Careful when trying these on as you might find yourself buying more than one.

The baseball season is about to kick off and Los Angeles based label, Shades of Greige is already excited for the 2010 post season with their Fall Classic Jacket.  It is one of the nicer baseball style jackets this spring and my favorite from their current collection.  Alternatively if you are not a fan of the baseball classic, Shades of Greige has also designed more refined linen herringbone which can be seen after the jump.

Looking for a pair of jeans to protect you from flying bullets?  Today is your lucky day as Naked & Famous have produced an interesting pair of jeans.  Ok it’s not actually bulletproof but the denim contains 20% Kevlar which is a common component in body armor.  Now Naked & Famous design some of the best jeans on the market but I am still trying to rationalize this concept.  I guess if you are looking for a tremendously strong pair of jeans, these are for you.

The release for the highly anticipated iPad is less than a month away (April 3rd) and the first commercial has launched to introduce the tablet PC.  It could be classified as an oversized iPhone, but this device will surely change the way we use computers and technology.  It will also be the white knight to a distressed publishing industry, transforming the way we all read books and newspapers.  Other than that I’ll have to say the iPad is the coolest looking touch-screen computer anyone can own.
