Justin Theroux was recently papped taking his dog Kuma for a walk and there's a lot to unpack. What struck us before anything else, though, was how in-tune the duo looked. Theroux's heavy wool coat anchors a muted color palette that runs via accessories and finishes with Kuma's jacket while the two are literally linked by the black rope leash that runs through Theroux's belt loops.
Theroux has got dog walking style to a tee: it's functional, warm, and not too polished. Rugged boots and distressed denim characterize the laid-back style that seasoned dog walkers are familiar with; your box-fresh Nike Dunks are a no-go for dog walking, look to technical and outdoor styles for a guaranteed win. So, that's your fit sorted, but taking the doggy-drip game seriously means perfecting both sides of the equation. That is, making sure that your canine partner is looking as good as you are.
The world of clothing for dogs is booming right now, with labels like Snow Peak and UGG staking a claim in the world of outfitting pups in cool stuff. While going out to meet pals might not be on the cards for the foreseeable, taking your dog for a walk might be the only chance you have to get a fit off. Seize it.

Your Fit
Carhartt WIP Byrd Hood

Hestra Utsjö Glove
Gloves are a necessity. Not only will you be gripping a leash attached to a tugging creature for most of the walk, you'll most likely be picking up muddy tennis balls and the like, too. We're opting for Hestra, the family-owned Swedish label that's been doing its warm, durable thing since 1936.
