There are certain designers and brands — in my humble opinion — that are always impressive, seemingly always at the top of their game, and always worth shopping in spades when it comes time to revamp your wardrobe for a new season with the best menswear essentials. Chief among those designers right here, right now? That’d be Todd Snyder, purveyor of everything from one of the best men’s cardigans to the coolest trucker jacket for the season.

Step on up and consider taking your wardrobe to the next level in a major way with the latest and greatest standout offering from the award-winning menswear designer. That’d be the rather stunning Todd Snyder Oil Cloth Cruiser Jacket, a heritage-minded piece that quite simply looks like your new favorite spring jacket. It looks like a jacket you’d find in a seriously cool antique shop or else an old history book, with timeless style and rugged appeal in spades — would you expect anything less from Todd Snyder, after all?

Indeed, the Todd Snyder Oil Cloth Cruiser Jacket takes its design cues from “timber cruiser” jackets, then upgrades the style in modern, functional fashion with famed British Millerain waxed cotton cloth. The Todd Snyder Oil Cloth Cruiser Jacket also boasts classic “timber cruiser” jacket touches, like four oversized flap button pockets for your everyday carry, and a rear game pocket.

For good measure, the collar on the Todd Snyder Oil Cloth Cruiser Jacket is even lined in corduroy, and the entire jacket is delivered in a handsomely rugged shade of dark brown (similar to cruiser jackets from other iconic brands, like Filson.). Is the Todd Snyder Oil Cloth Cruiser Jacket an investment at $498? Yes, it certainly is: If you ask me though, your wardrobe is all the better for it.
