"FacebookPinterest\n\nEach day we're highlighting a truly inspirational look from How GQ Are You? and breaking it down to give you what's needed to create something similar. Don't forget about our December Style Challenge, where the winner gets a new GQ designed Fiat 500c. Entering is as easy as uploading your best look from 2013 right here.\n\nMASOUDARDESTANI is proof enough that classic American sportswear is here to stay. Chinos and a L.L. Bean tote bag exude prep culture, but have been styled with streetwear in mind. At one point in time, the stuff these guys are wearing symbolized class hierarchy (not dissimilar to the kind Kanye West so poignantly noted during his last visit to Jimmy Kimmel), but have since have become an intrinsic part of today's youth rebellion. An American made bag no longer stands for a privilege and education, but a \"local is the new global\" point of view. Don't shy away from \"preppy\" items because of how they're defined in the Prep Handbook circa 1980, because those ideas (i.e. snobbery and elitism) are no longer relevant. Instead, think about what it means to dress with a sense of heritage... it'll give you a newfound sense of national pride.\n\nFacebookPinterest\n\nMASOUDARDESTANI shows how so much of American made gear has become more closely aligned with street style than leisure wear.\n\nFacebookPinterest\n\nIf you can't find what you're looking for in-store (or if you just want a really good deal) do like Mark Anthony Green and check out eBay.\n\n$176, available at ebay.com\n\nFacebookPinterest\n\n$35, available at llbean.com\n\nFacebookPinterest\n\n$44, available at supremenewyork.com\n\nFacebookPinterest\n\n$180, available at savekhakiunited.com"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
