Wen Yeunh, Founder of WJ & Co.
Located in Bangsar Shopping Centre, WJ & Co. is a treasure trove of expertly curated menswear gems. Wen Yeunh, the dapper founder of WJ & Co., tells The Peak about the gift he hopes to receive this year. “Anything from my wish list but I suppose it depends on who it’s from,” he says. If it’s from my wife, a Land Rover Defender 90 in Pangea Green. From anyone else, probably a Land Rover Defender 90 in Pangea Green.”
A fail-safe option, according to Yeunh, would be one meant for sharing. “I’m not really fussed with gifts but if I had to choose, I enjoy gifts that can be shared, like a good bottle of wine.”
As for his gift recommendations, Yeunh likes to keep it stylishly simple:
John Lobb Lopez in Dark Brown Suede
“The John Lobb Lopez is, in my opinion, the best-looking penny loafer ever made. And the most versatile version of it is made in dark brown suede.”
Le Labo Eau de Parfum Santal 33 15ml
“Le Labo’s Santal 33 is the fragrance I wear most often and the 15ml size is perfect for when I’m travelling light.”
Johnson Silk Bowtie and Cummerbund
“I have a terrible habit of misplacing my bowtie, my cummerbund, or worse, both of them, right when I need them for a black-tie affair. These matching ones from P. Johnson are always my preferred replacements.”
The Durand Wine Cork Opener
“I’m not the most dextrous, I struggle with opening older wines with those tricky crumbly corks. This corkscrew-tweezer combo always seems to do the trick.”
Vacheron Constantin Perpetual Calendar Wristwatch
“I gravitate towards watches based on their design more than anything and this neo-vintage Vacheron Constantin Perpetual Calendar is no exception. The four subdials are just so elegantly symmetrical and the use of lapis lazuli in its moon phase indicator is incredibly striking.”
WJ & Co. Buttonless Polo in Knitted Cotton
“These cotton knit polos are the perfect in-between of a shirt and a tee. The collar is effortless while the ribbed sleeves and hem keep everything trim and together.”
