The Tuesday Steal: Save 30 Percent On these Stylish Men’s Shorts from Mack Weldon

Finding a stylish deal on a menswear essential you can wear right this very second, in this very season, is a bit of an unexpected delight, is it not? At least, that’s my experience, and that’s also been my experience with Mack Weldon. The NYC-based brand delivers the best of the best across the board, from some of the best men’s boxer briefs to one of the best men’s T-shirts, and then some.

That also includes the Mack Weldon Maverick Tech Chino Shorts, which is why we’re gathered here today. You can currently snag these stylish shorts in two colors (a vibrant, preppy Sconset Red and a crisp and classic Commando color), but that’s not the real kicker.

You see, these stylish chino shorts can be yours for under $70 — put it another way, and your new favorite men’s shorts are on sale for about 30 percent off right now. They feature an agreeable 7.75″-inch inseam that should work very well on most guys, and there’s plenty more to love beyond that when it comes to the Mack Weldon Maverick Tech Chino Shorts.

They also boast water and stain-resistant four-way stretch fabric, the kind that’s suitable for both hours on the links and hours manning the grill. Plus, the Mack Weldon Maverick Tech Chino Shorts feature six pockets (including a hidden zipper EDC pocket).

For good measure, they come in waist sizes ranging from 30 on up to 44. This deal (again, under $70 for your new favorite shorts!) won’t last forever, though. Between those two summer-friendly colors, I sure hope you find an in-season essential for a stellar deal from one of my favorite brands. Good luck out there, and here’s to summer.

Crucially, this jacket is also made with a touch of spandex for comfort and stretch. Plus, the Buck Mason Carry-On Jacket pairs up perfectly with the aptly named Buck Mason Carry-On Pants, and yet, you can also rock it with a pair of expertly cut Buck Mason jeans.

Style Pick of the Week: Flint and Tinder 365 Shorts – The Best Men’s Shorts for Summer

In my experience, especially in the summer months, it seems you just need workhorse wardrobe pieces that consistently get the job done in terms of casual, effortless style. Of course, a pair of the best men’s shorts certainly qualifies, and that’s where my good friends at Huckberry enter the equation, and that’s part of the reason why I’m keeping today’s post short and sweet. Some things just make sense in matters of men’s style, right? Yes indeed.

The Flint and Tinder 365 Shorts (part of Huckberry’s selection of bestsellers) take the cake as far as the best shorts for men are concerned, using the company’s lightweight yet durable 365 fabric (a blend of cotton and spandex that’s also been garment-dyed).

Learn more and shop at Huckberry

These shorts check off all the proper boxes in my book: These stylish men’s shorts come in three inseam lengths to suit guys of every height, they’re available in rich and versatile colors to match up with plenty of other summer style essentials, and they boast custom Flint and Tinder hardware, for good measure.

I’m going to wrap up this post here today, since it’s quite clear to me that your next move is simple: Go ahead and get a pair of the best shorts for men over at Huckberry ASAP. You know exactly what to do.

The Friday Read: Buck Mason’s USA-Made T-Shirts, Glendalough Gin & LCD Soundsystem

Folks, it’s time for another edition of the Friday Read, as we roll into what promises to be a lovely summer weekend here in New York City. What’s on your weekend shopping and reading list? Hopefully, that includes a healthy dose of perusing Buck Mason menswear, as I’ve found myself doing quite frequently. After all, the brand just started making its best-selling T-shirts in the United States, at a famed Pennsylvania factory, as I wrote about yesterday on the blog.

Shop USA-made tees now at Buck Mason

That’s certainly one way to kick off the weekend properly, and I’ve got another idea as to how to kick off my own weekend. Later this afternoon, I’ll be trekking up to Queens and to the lovely, historic Forest Hills Stadium for a momentous mini-music festival of sorts, headlined by none other than one of my favorite bands: New York synth pop and dance rock heroes LCD Soundsystem. I’ll assuredly be dancing my way into the weekend — how about yourself? In the meantime, here are a few other reads and style picks to get your own summer day started properly (led by Buck Mason menswear, of course). Cheers, my friends.

Speaking of rugged and expertly crafted T-shirts, here’s another one for. I find myself living in Filson pocket tees this time of year, and I wrote about a new favorite T-shirt over on the blog earlier this week. If you love the brand as much as I do, drop a comment below. Here’s to a major wardrobe upgrade, yes?

Shop Filson tees right now

As part of my many freelance writing pursuits, I’m endlessly fortunate to be able to travel the world covering spirits, menswear and more. In fact, if you recall correctly, I visited Dublin and lovely Wicklow earlier this spring with Glendalough Gin. It was the trip of a lifetime, and I wrote all about foraging for gin botanicals with Glendalough over at Maxim late last week. Cheers, indeed!
And last but not least, you know what this weekend is, right? It’s Father’s Day weekend, and I’d also recommend you shop my picks for the best Father’s Day gifts from Huckberry right now, as covered over at Maxim. Dad deserves it, right? Yessir.

Well, my friends: That’s going to wrap it up from me today. Here’s to an eventful summer weekend, a wonderful Father’s Day and plenty of stylish shopping selections in your future. As always — thank you for reading!

The Thursday Buy: Buck Mason Is Now Making Its T-Shirts in the United States

When something is well-made, you know it right off the bat: It feels different out of the box, it wears more stylishly, and it lasts longer. In my experience, that’s what I’m looking for in my menswear essentials. And that’s why I’ve found that Buck Mason consistently delivers some of the best men’s style picks across the board over the years. Perhaps you’ve found the same holds true over the years, yes?

The Buck Mason approach starts with its consistent attention to detail via the best men’s T-shirts, the brand’s cornerstone. The company makes plenty of stylish men’s tees in fabrics like slub and pima cotton, sure, but they’re now doing it in an even bigger and better way.

To wit: Buck Mason is now making some of its best-selling T-shirts right here in the United States, and that news is music to my ears (and hopefully, to yours as well).

Buck Mason just announced the launch of Buck Mason Knitting Mills, a new frontier for the Americana-focused company. The short story: The brand is reviving the historic Mohnton Mill in Mohnton, PA, a region known for its textile manufacturing expertise.

Learn more about Buck Mason Knitting Mills

Buck Mason bought the mill, saving it from closure, saving jobs and then ramping up production of some of the best T-shirts for men in the process. They’re also using USA-grown cotton for a true “grown-and-sewn” approach.

The story is an inspiring one, and one that’ll allow you to get picks like the Buck Mason Slub Curved Hem Tee with USA-made production front and center. It’s an impressive move, and I’ve had the chance to try out some of Buck Mason’s USA-made tees already.

Shop Buck Mason’s USA-made T-shirts

The fabric quality is top-notch, the durability is outstanding, and the handfeel and overall design is excellent. Would you expect anything less? I certainly wouldn’t. It’s only the start of Buck Mason’s journey to making more of the best USA-made tees, so get in on the ground floor and upgrade your summer wardrobe ASAP. You won’t regret it.

See Now, Buy Now: Wear This Rugged Filson Pocket Tee As Often As Possible This Summer

No man’s wardrobe of summer style essentials is complete without the right T-shirt. As the thermostat rises ever higher, it might be the only item you feel most comfortable wearing, be that underneath a lightweight cotton blazer or styled beneath an open camp-collar shirt.

And of course, I’ve found just the source to sort out your T-shirt rotation for the rest of summer: That’d be Filson, one of the most experienced menswear outfitters on the market, whether or not you’ve spent any time exploring the Pacific Northwest.

Learn more and shop at Filson

As you might expect (and as I’ve found over the years), the Filson Pioneer Pocket T-Shirt gets plenty right when it comes to the best T-shirts for men, regardless of where your summer takes you. For starters, this stylish men’s T-shirt is made in the U.S.A. — how’s that for extra attention to detail?

It’s got durable, classic construction and style written all over it (not literally, but you get the idea), and that’s a great starting point as you look to bolster your wardrobe of casual menswear essentials. Let’s take a deeper dive, yes?

As with any rough-and-tumble Filson product, the Filson Pioneer Pocket T-Shirt delivers in terms of fabric: It’s made from a midweight cotton jersey fabric for a sturdy handfeel made to be worn on its own or perhaps layered under your favorite Filson shirt.

The rib-knit collar on the Filson Pioneer Pocket T-Shirt should also hold its shape over time, rather than fraying or bunching up.

Shop rugged Filson gear now

In fact, it’s the small details like that — along with the reinforced chest pocket — that make the Filson Pioneer Pocket T-Shirt worth the higher price tag (it clocks in at $60). That chest pocket also gives it some visual interest, so you can wear it with everything from Filson blue jeans to a pair of Filson adventure shorts any day of the week (and especially on a laidback summer weekend).

A pocket T-shirt is so much more than just a pocket T-shirt in the very capable hands of Filson, and it’s certainly not a stretch to say that the Filson Pioneer Pocket T-Shirt is going to be the best T-shirt you wear all summer.

The Tuesday Steal: This Adventure-Ready Taylor Stitch Shirt is 30 Percent Off Right Now

The best menswear brands on the market, the menswear brands I love the most, tend to be the ones that take the ordinary and elevate it ever-so-slightly. Take Taylor Stitch. I’ve long been a fan of this San Francisco-based brand, as you know if you read the blog on the regular — perhaps you feel the same way? And in fact, hopefully you already know the brand’s focus on making some of the best shirts for men, right?

Learn more now at Taylor Stitch

I sure hope so, because this modern icon has a way of taking the expected and making it, well, unexpected. That leads us to today’s Tuesday Steal, which shines the spotlight on one of the best men’s shirts for summer — a shirt that’s available for 30 percent off via the effortlessly cool Taylor Stitch Last Call section.

Now, don’t get me wrong: It can be mighty hard to find the proper deal on a versatile, go-anywhere shirt, one that you can wear for adventures aplenty and casual days working from home. Yet, that’s the hole that the Taylor Stitch Point Shirt fills in your wardrobe. It’s modeled after throwback military field shirts, and helpfully made from a super-breezy yet durable blend of organic cotton and linen.

The Taylor Stitch Point Shirt also boasts the brand’s customary chest sizing, all the better for a flattering fit (consider sizing up if you want a slightly looser fit). But the Taylor Stitch Point Shirt is about so much more than the right fit (and that standout discount of 30 percent off).

Shop the Taylor Stitch Last Call section now

It features the brand’s classic, face-framing California collar, but it’s the two front flap chest pockets that should prove especially useful for handling your everyday carry essentials in the field. And of course, the Taylor Stitch Point Shirt comes in two seriously cool colors: A rich Indigo Slub — which just so happens to be my personal favorite — and a field-ready Rain Drop Camo.

Between the soft-yet-reliable fabric, the sub-$100 price on sale, and the durable performance features, you ultimately can’t go wrong with the Taylor Stitch Point Shirt — at least, not in my book.

For good measure, your new favorite leather card case features a mesh ID display window for easy access. Take it from me: It’s got everything you need, and nothing you don’t. That sounds to me like one of the best everyday carry wallets out there.
