FINE DINING ON FIFTH
Have you been yet to Del Mar Restaurant? This Mediterranean eatery from the same team that owns and operates Ocean Prime Naples is coming up on its one-year anniversary this holiday season. And there are plenty of reasons to say “cheers” to this new addition to the Fifth Avenue South shopping center (which has a wide selection of cocktails, beer and wine for the toasting). Its chefs are inspired by flavors from Greece, Spain, Morocco, France, Italy and Turkey to create a crafted menu that rotates with the seasons. The Lamb Tagine is out-of-this world delicious, but don’t take our word for it. Check these guys out and tell them John Craig sent you.

All in THE FAMILY
For more than 25 years, John Craig has been treating everyone—from loyal staff members to longtime customers to first-time shoppers— like family. We take a vested interest in all who visit our stores, not only because we want them to look good but also to ensure they feel good about themselves. It’s the same care and attention we give to our parents, sons and daughters, grandkids and cousins. When you scan our A to Z list, you’ll notice many of our brands are also longtime, family-run companies. It’s not surprising that some of the world’s renowned brands have stayed in their families since Day One—and they often align with other family-run businesses, such as John Craig, that share values of providing the highest quality menswear and exceptional customer experience for all. We are proud to work with these family-run companies:
L.B.M. 1911, Edward Armah, Hagen, Manto, Maurizio Baldassari, Italo Ferretti, Robert Jensen, Kenton Michael, Dion, Peru Unlimited, Samuelsohn, Canali, Kiton, Martin Dingman, Jack Victor, Alan Payne, Calder and many more

From Naples… TO NAPLES
If you’re a big fan of Kiton, the Italian, family-owned brand known for its luxurious suits and jeans, you’re going to be really excited about John Craig’s newest addition—Marco Pescarolo. A cousin to the Paone family, who are the owners of Kiton, Marco Pescarolo is one of Kiton’s suppliers for their jeans and casual pants. But the Naples, Italy-based pantmaker has also had his own line of luxury denim and trousers since 1999, and we’re proud to offer them here for the first time for the fall/winter 2022 season. Marco Pescarolo’s two staple items, the five-pocket jeans and flat front chinos, are defined by their slim, flattering fits that emphasize comfort. The products have a touch of whimsy too—embroidered on each pair of pants is the mask of Pulcinella, a mischievous puppet well-known in Neapolitan theater. Best yet, Marco Pescarolo pants are a fraction of the price of Kiton jeans but with the same luxurious feel and slimming look. Stop by John Craig to try on a pair for yourself and see why we’re so excited to offer them to our customers this season.
Take These Collabs OUT FOR A SPIN
Some of the world’s brightest engineers work in the auto industry, so it’s no surprise that the finest luxury collaborations often involve top automakers. As a man who’s into all things current and fashionable, you know all the best car companies—and you might even own one or two. But below are four brands that teamed up with the best of the best in other industries to create non-car products that you may love: Aston Martin and Bowmore. The British automaker and the first distillery on the Scottish isle of Islay teamed up in the past, but their latest collab is their finest. The duo’s latest whisky, ARC52, is a single malt aged 52 years and bottled in a gorgeous, limited edition decanter. Ferrari and Montblanc. The leader of fine writing instruments, Montblanc pays tribute to Enzo Ferrari, the iconic founder of the Italian automaker, in its special edition line of fountain and rollerball pens. Each pen mimics the lines and details of the Ferrari 125 S and includes Ferrari’s famed prancing horse logo. McLaren and Tumi. The supercar company lends its cutting-edge tech to the luggage brand to create a line of travel bags and accessories for those into lifestyle and fashion. The sleek Aero International carry-on, for instance, features molded sides for durability, a removable suit section, built-in USB port and Tumi’s Tracer technology. Mercedes Benz and IWC. Make room in your vanity for IWC’s latest Pilot watch, the Mercedes-AMG Petronas’ Formula 1 Team. This chronograph features a 41mm case design crafted from lightweight titanium, the same material that went into the Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series’ production. The dial layout uses Petronas green numerals, indexes and subdials to display the watch’s functions.

Outerwear IN FLORIDA?
It’s not the craziest concept. We don’t always need jackets here in South Florida, but when we do, Manto is our new go-to. Northern-Italy based Manto has produced clothing for other prestigious brands for more than 15 years but now, their newest capsule collection of outerwear is available at John Craig. Manto is defined by its combination of technical, high-end fabrics, exquisite craftsmanship and sophisticated style. So come to one of our stores to try on a trench, a raincoat, a parka and more from Manto. You won’t need these items every day here in the Southeast, but you just might wish you did.
A NEXT-LEVEL Party
Elevate your next corporate dinner, birthday party or lunch event by booking it at Hannibal’s on the Square, nestled in the heart of historic Winter Park. Reserve the underground cellar for your party of up to 30 people, where your crew will enjoy a vast menu of wines from around the world and an urban, European-inspired ambience. Not planning any parties in the near future? Stop by for a pre-dinner Scotch, a happy hour cocktail and light bites that’ll complement your drink of choice. The food is prepared by chef/owner Vincent Gagliano, the brainchild of Winter Park’s Chez Vincent. P.S.: Don’t miss Hannibal’s live music on the weekends.
