We’re still deep in the throes of winter, a detail you surely haven’t missed if you’ve stepped outside your front door any day in the past few weeks. Perhaps at this point, you’re searching for updates to your sweater rotation, and it might be high time for an affordable refresh with one of the best winter sweaters for men.

And perhaps, it might be time to take the plunge with a buzzed-about brand you haven’t yet tried: Meet Quince, makers of highly affordable cashmere sweaters and perhaps best known for its line of Mongolian Cashmere Crewneck Sweaters, among others. Let’s say we take a look at what could be your new favorite sweater, shall we?

The brand has something for just about everyone (including a line of home goods and basics, right down to socks, plus pages of accessories aplenty to pore through). There are also more Quince men’s sweaters out there than you can shake a stick at, including a range of shawl cardigans, quarter-zip sweaters, polo sweaters, classic cardigans and of course, the famed line of Mongolian Cashmere Crewneck Sweaters.

Right off the bat, the Quince Mongolian Cashmere Cable Crew is a major winner in terms of affordability, especially concerning what traditional designers might dream up.

Of course, 100 percent Mongolian cashmere makes up its ultra-soft construction, billed by the do-it-all brand as “a lightweight yet exceptionally warm sweater that delivers natural breathability and a luxuriously soft hand-feel against the skin.” In frigid temperatures across NYC, that certainly holds true (when layered beneath a trusty peacoat, of course).

The Quince Mongolian Cashmere Cable Crew also comes in highly stylish, easily wearable colors, including shades of beige, tan, grey and navy — and at their current price tag, you very well might want to pick up more than one iteration of the handsome Quince Mongolian Cashmere Cable Crew.

Style Pick of the Week: Todd Snyder Terry Pocket Sweatshirt – An Everyday Essential from the Famed Menswear Designer

When a designer like Todd Snyder talks about the best men’s style essentials, pieces every guy should own, it’s a wise bet to listen closely. The award-winning menswear designer and veteran of J. Crew and Ralph Lauren has been shaping the way guys should dress for decades — especially with his namesake line, as you well know if you read this Brooklyn menswear blog. Yes, it’s lofty praise, but when a guy wants to look great in a luxe shirt, or find the perfect pair of selvedge jeans, or switch things up with relaxed tailoring or a Don Draper-approved sweater polo, Todd Snyder is the man to see.

Learn more and shop your new favorites at Todd Snyder

That also holds true with more casual and casually rugged style essentials, like the effortless Todd Snyder x New Balance 574 Sneakers or the just-right Oxford shirt, or an ultra-soft T-shirt, or the just-right fade of Japanese selvedge light wash jeans… the list goes on and on, as you can see.

And now, as part of his new line of Todd Snyder Essentials, the designer is recommending ten must-shop picks every guy should own — starting with a winter-friendly, layering-approved Todd Snyder Pocket Sweatshirt. The designer previously put his own twist on athletic sportswear for years with the Todd Snyder x Champion lineup of luxe yet gym-inspired basics, including the must-buy pocket sweatshirt. It begins anew with one of the best sweatshirts for men, in the best way possible.

The Todd Snyder Pocket Sweatshirt takes the classic pocket sweatshirt and gives it a luxe finish in Portuguese French Terry cotton, light enough to layer comfortably over an Oxford shirt or a thermal henley, and substantial enough to give it some heft underneath a sturdy waxed cotton trucker jacket.

In fact, your new favorite pocket sweatshirt should be well-suited for layering indeed, as the famed retailer (now with more than 20 locations nationwide!) notes this sweatshirt is in fact “roomy through the chest, tapered at the waist” for a more classic look in a nod to old-school athletic sweatshirts.

Split needle construction offers a clean and crisp finish to this sweatshirt whether you score the Todd Snyder Pocket Sweatshirt in a timeless color like Light Grey, or the indigo-inspired Deep Springs. Any option should add depth and a sense of sporty, heritage style to your favorite pieces, be they tobacco-hued stretch chinos, faded blue jeans or perhaps corduroy pants and a chambray shirt for a luxe, high-meets-low look. This certainly won’t be the last time we talk about his new line of Todd Snyder Essentials, so it’s best to start with a fresh take on a throwback classic.

The Friday Find: Bolster Your Jacket Roster with this Stylish Plaid Number from Patrick James

We like to keep things moving and grooving at this Brooklyn style blog — that is to say, the name of the game today is still winter outerwear and one of the best winter jackets for men, but viewed in a bit of a different light from a brand that knows a thing or two about refined menswear and comfort.

So while it can be essential to keep a thick puffer jacket or a tried-and-true peacoat at the ready, some casually rugged options (yet fashioned with durable, ultra-soft fabric) are also a prime addition to your wardrobe. Take Patrick James, the long-running California menswear purveyor (since 1962, in fact) and the Patrick James Dolomine Plaid Cord Jacket. It’s a bit of a different take on a rugged winter jacket, with the same classic plaid build as you’ll find on the best shirt jackets and flannel shirts for men, for instance.

Find out more now and shop the best menswear at Patrick James

But a closer look reveals points of distinction and comfort any guy you should be glad to have close at hand — especially as winter’s chill keeps sticking around. The Patrick James Dolomine Plaid Cord Jacket (which just so happens to be 30 percent off right now) is the perfect sort of pick for our Friday Find series — just different enough, but familiar in all the right ways. In fact, the Patrick James Dolomine Plaid Cord Jacket boasts a rich Italian-made wool blend structure to go along with that utterly timeless plaid pattern.

Here’s where it gets a bit different with the Patrick James Dolomine Plaid Cord Jacket: Note the corduroy collar and cuffs, touches typically found on waxed barn coats or field coats from iconic brands like Barbour (for instance).

Two button flap chest pockets and eye-catching angled hip pockets deliver warmth for your digits and space for your everyday carry, to round this jacket out in fine form indeed. Feel free to layer the Patrick James Dolomine Plaid Cord Jacket atop a chambray shirt or even an Oxford shirt in place of a blazer based on the weather at hand — winter style classics with just a touch different about ’em have never been more within your reach.

The Thursday Buy: This Flint and Tinder Quilted Waxed Jacket Is Your Next Go-Anywhere Casual Layer

Flint and Tinder waxed jacket review.

If there’s one thing on my mind every time I step out into the snowy streets of Brooklyn, it’s the need — a deep need — for a darn good, tough-as-nails, hard-wearing winter coat these days. Not just any coat meets that mantle — the best winter jackets for men need to layer with ease, fight off wind and sleet, and look good while doing it — in casually rugged fashion, of course.

And while your rotation of the best winter menswear probably has a durable parka or a puffer jacket at the very minimum, rugged versatility and variety is never a bad thing. In fact, every guy can use a stable of options as far the best men’s winter jackets are concerned — and as I always say, if you can find one up for grabs at a discount within the confines of, say, the Huckberry Annual Winter Sale, you should certainly make haste.

Shop the best winter gear now at Huckberry

That brings us to a seasonal layering staple, one you can wear well into spring when the snow finally tapers off: That’d be the hard-working, sleek Flint and Tinder Quilted Waxed York Jacket, just the latest foray into the best waxed jackets for men from the good folks at Huckberry and Flint and Tinder. It’s the best of all worlds, I say, as you shop the Huckberry Annual Winter Sale, between the combination of rugged, durable staples, winter style points, functionality and savings — and this dependable, casual sits nicely at the cross-section of those categories, does it not?

The Flint and Tinder Quilted Waxed York Jacket looks like the kind of grab-and-go jacket every guy can use, more capable at repelling wind and rain than a nylon puffer jacket, and every bit as streamlined for casually rugged fashion (Think: Atop blue jeans and a chambray shirt or thermal henley on “balmy” days, and atop a fisherman sweater as temperatures plummet).

Billed by Huckberry itself as a “waxed canvas puffer that’s a city slicker by day and cabin dweller by the weekend,” it’s also finished off internally with recycled Primaloft insulation and useful details like a stand-up collar and welt-snap hip pockets (plus an interior chest pocket) for your ever-critical daily carry.

And while sizes of the Flint and Tinder Quilted Waxed York Jacket are going fast in certain colors, there are more than enough options in highly neutral, easily wearable colors like Grey or Olive. And for the perfect fit, the Flint and Tinder Quilted Waxed York Jacket even features snap wrist cuffs and adjustable side tabs based on how much mobility your next winter adventure calls for. At a prime savings of 40 percent off (marked down to $178 from $298), this handsome waxed jacket is an effortless winter layer packed with performance — trust me on that, my friends.

And when it comes to the rugged, Americana-inspired style purveyors at Line of Trade, the Bespoke Post-owned and inspired brand assuredly delivers in every stitch (at least, in my experience!). Let me put it this way: If you want the right mix of rugged appeal, winter performance, style points and good looks in spades, this is one brand to shop — over and over again, at that.

In fact, there are certain winter style essentials from the brand that are a cut above the rest, even in a crowded market where the quality of winter gear from heritage-minded brands seems to get better with each passing season. And on that note, meet – or re-meet – the Line of Trade Summit Flannel Shirt, a durable and rugged style staple with old-school appeal in every thread.

The Line of Trade Summit Flannel Shirt is quite simply a do-it-all, goes-with-almost-anything casual shirt with style points aplenty to spare. Crafted from a ultra-soft yet sturdy 100 percent cotton flannel fabric, the company itself says “Line of Trade custom-designed the Summit Plaid Flannel Shirt’s exclusive patterns for a lineup of flannels that’s a touch above ordinary – and unlike none other.” Of course, that’s high praise, but in my experience wearing the handsome Line of Trade Summit Flannel Shirt, the brand lives up to its billing — and then some.

Featuring an array of rich plaid patterns and retro-minded colors, the Line of Trade Summit Flannel Shirt truly feels timeless, whether worn with stretch cotton chinos, corduroy trousers or classic dark blue jeans.

Complete with crisp finishing touches like a left chest patch pocket and mitered double-button cuffs, this hard-working yet stylish flannel shirt deserves its place in your rotation — in at least one color, if not multiple given the highly affordable $75 price tag. Winter has indeed met its match, at least as far as the best men’s flannel shirts are concerned, my friends.

The Tuesday Steal: This Lightweight Relwen Puffer Jacket Is a Discounted Style Find at the Huckberry Annual Winter Sale

And in the interest of time, there’s at least one stylish men’s winter jacket you should be shopping at a serious discount: The Relwen Featherweight Down Jacket is the best of the best at what the Ohio-based makers at Relwen do, at least in my experience.

The company leans on heritage styles like the hiker-approved down jacket as inspiration for the coolest, most useful and modern gear of today.

That’s lofty praise, but I’d wager that in terms of lightweight performance, the Relwen Featherweight Down Jacket definitely punches above its weight, and then some (better still is the fact that the hard-wearing Relwen Featherweight Down Jacket is discounted down to $243 from $348 — savings and style rolled into one functional package, my friends. Weighing in at a mere 9.3 oz., the outdoor gear company notes this sleek yet ultra-warm jacket is already “the lightest winter-ready Relwen jacket ever,” built with handy details like a two-way center front zipper and three pockets for your everyday carry.

The placket is even reinforced with herringbone for improved durability, while plastic snaps offer quiet performance, Relwen notes. Meanwhile, a reinforced collar teams nicely with a stand-up design for comfort and protection from the wind. It’s but one of many must-shop discounts within the digital pages of the Huckberry Annual Winter Sale, but it could prove the most useful and dependable at offering standout protection from the cold. Try one on for size while options are available in one of four retro-minded colors, my friends. Good luck out there, and as ever, stay stylish.
