After 22 years in the biz, Brooklyn-based fine and demi-fine jewelry brand Catbird today launched Well Worn, their first ever dedicated menswear capsule collection. And it is as covetable as it is affordable, which is to say very. Almost shockingly so.
While Catbird’s jewelry has long been designed to be worn across genders, the new capsule marks their formal entry into the men’s category, translating their signature approach to modern heirlooms into five easy pieces made for everyday wear and crafted in 100% recycled sterling silver and solid 10k gold.
“Worn Well is an extension of something we’ve always believed: the best jewelry becomes deeply personal through how you wear it,” says Catbird’s chief creative officer, Leigh Batnick Plessner. “These are familiar, enduring pieces made to be lived in, loved, and gather meaning over time.”
1. The Oak Shield Charm
Catbird describes it as “an old symbol, made new” and “a talisman for carrying what matters,” but we just think it is totally cute. Especially the small version, which comes in 10k gold and is discreet and lightweight enough that even guys who rarely wear jewelry are likely to put it on and never take it off. The small gold version is $298 while the larger silver version is $98. Plus $10 for engraving. You can also get a 15% off a chain when you buy the shield online, which, with gold and silver prices where they are these days, is a deal worth taking advantage of.

2. The Watch Ring
A classic watch band, given new form as a ring. It’s bold and modern and looks great worn on its own or in a stack. Made of silver, it is $88 for the 5mm and $128 for the 10mm.

4. The Century ID Chain Ring
A reworking of Catbird’s popular ID ring with a substantial curb chain backing, made to stand on its own. It can also be worn with the engraving tucked inward, like a little secret. Available in matte or shiny silver, engraving is free.

5. The Diver Signet Ring
