If you’ve been searching for a brand that brings the heat, so to speak, when it comes to spring style essentials, today’s edition of The List is for you. We like to cover the best new gear across all sorts of brands here at The Style Guide, and this certainly won’t be the last time you hear about L.A.-based Aether Apparel. Founded more than a decade ago to help bridge the gap between stylish urban exploration gear and off-trail, adventure-minded functionality, the new Aether Apparel spring collection features, well, all the best new spring menswear you could hope to find.
Heck, they’ve even launched the Aether Apparel #WFH Collection in recent months, and they’re also well-known for road-ready picks like the rugged and incredible Aether Apparel Moto Boots. Here are some of my favorite picks below, from footwear to outerwear and beyond. These are investment-level pieces, but assuredly worth it. Last but not least: To see how I’m getting ready for the season, give me a follow on Instagram.
The Best New Spring Menswear from Aether Apparel
Aether Apparel Sector Jacket — $250
If I had to guess one category that’s top of mind right now, it’d have to be the best men’s jackets for spring. Right? Right. This jacket, featuring raglan sleeves for ease of movement — plus a garment-dyed stretch cotton twill fabric — is the perfect casual spring jacket.
Aether Apparel Dalton Sneakers — $325
These premium high-top sneakers are a favorite of the brand’s loyal fans, and you’re going to love ’em, too. After all, they’re a pair of durable Italian leather high-tops made with maximum shock absorption and expert spring style in mind. That makes ’em worth the price.
Aether Apparel Seward Button-Down Shirt — $275
That might seem like an eye-popping price for a shirt, but this modern men’s button-down shirt features 100 percent Italian wool construction, made to regulate your temperature and keep you warm on blustery spring days. Wear it atop a classic tee on a weekend morning.
Aether Apparel Moto Boots — $595
Aether Apparel made a bold leap into the footwear realm with the seriously cool and incredibly designed Aether Apparel Moto Boots, and they’d make a perfect spring footwear option for road trips or excursions when you need something sturdier than the Aether Apparel Dalton Sneakers.
Aether Apparel Vector Pants — $250
Now that you’ve got your Aether Apparel Moto Boots for tooling around this spring, how about adding a pair of tailored technical pants to the mix for even more versatility and comfort? These Aether Apparel men’s pants are made from garment-dyed stretch cotton twill and reinforced at the knee for travel-friendly performance and durability.
Aether Apparel Long-Sleeve Raglan Henley — $85
It wouldn’t be a guide to the best spring menswear at Aether Apparel without including a cotton henley in a classic raglan-sleeve cut, right? Consider this one of the best henleys for men (and one of the best base layers out there) for relaxed spring days aplenty.
Aether Apparel Dolomite Boots — $400
Let’s talk about another pair of much-loved, covetable men’s boots (probably some of the best hiking boots for men out there) from Aether Apparel, shall we? The expertly crafted Aether Apparel Dolomite Boots are the perfect boots to carry you from winter into early spring, made with day hikes and crosstown strolls in mind.
Aether Apparel Camber Jacket — $550
In my book, it’s always wise to take a look at Aether Apparel new arrivals, particularly when it comes to the best spring outerwear, ehh? Enter the water and wind-resistant, well-made Aether Apparel Camber Jacket for spring projects and spring hikes in equal measure.
Aether Apparel Scout Sunglasses — $600
Yes indeed, that’s an eye-popping price for a pair of men’s sunglasses. But you shouldn’t be surprised to find that even in the accessories realm, Aether Apparel has gone above and beyond. That means these shades feature a beta-titanium frame and unbreakable temples, perfect for the open road, the trail or the town.
Aether Apparel Relay Track Pants — $195
I called out the Aether Apparel #WFH Collection specifically at the start of this post, so it’s to that collection we’ll return as we take a look at some of the best men’s sweatpants to wear at home or even around town this season. Note the stylish side stripe and the fact that these are as ready for a coffee run as they are for a workout.
Aether Apparel Pique Pocket Tee — $65
Let’s keep the casual yet incredibly well-made vibes rolling here with Aether Apparel menswear, shall we? Made from soft pique fabric, this is one of the best T-shirts for men.
Aether Apparel Lyon Sweater — $275
For breezy spring mornings and unexpectedly cold nights that require an extra layer, it’s hard to go wrong with this rugged men’s sweater, made from a merino wool blend.
Aether Apparel Clarke Shorts — $195
Because it’s going to warm up eventually, how about you spring for a pair of the best men’s shorts for the season, the kind you can wear on casual days on your porch or around the bonfire (or to that first early spring cabin getaway) without missing a beat. The garment-washed stretch cotton fabric is comfortable and ready for anything.
Aether Apparel Laptop Case — $75
Last but not least: Want to add some everyday carry essentials to your rotation without spending an arm and a leg? Better yet, want to protect your laptop on road trips and your daily commute — in style? This technical laptop case is the way to go.
With a brand like Aether Apparel and the robust and well-rounded Aether Apparel spring collection, it’s tough to single out just one must-have piece of gear, is it not? If you need something to add to your everyday carry essentials, they’ve got you covered. If you need an heirloom-worthy pair of Aether Apparel Moto Boots, they’ve got you covered.
