Maxwell Runko stars in 'Why Wait Another Day,' a normcore style exclusive for web publication The Ones 2 Watch. The model dons an understated wardrobe that consists of brown leather jackets and casual t-shirt and jean pairings. He sports pieces from Yves Saint Laurent, [Levi's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/levis-and-jjjjound) and Wilsons Leather along with a number of vintage clothing picks by this shoot's stylist and photographer Easton Schirra.

Grooming for 'Why Wait Another Day' is courtesy of Seana Gorlick who creates a slicked back hairstyle for her model subject. Maxwell's look is rebellious and reflective or an edgy and understated normcore style -- a look that has graced major runways in the few months.

Exuding a nostalgic air, this scenic editorial boasts a visual design by [Rosie Daily](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rosie-hong) and is captured in the heart of Mount Wilson, California. The shoot's zen vibe is met with an effortlessly cool wardrobe.
