The Friday Read: The Best Spring Rain Jackets, The Best Socks for Your Favorite Boots and New Spring Menswear at Huckberry

If you ask me, things are really looking up in terms of spring menswear, plentiful spring style points and new essentials aplenty for your wardrobe. Just take the Huckberry Spring Preview for instance, especially as we roll into another lovely spring weekend.

Huckberry spring menswear 2024.

You’ll find that your favorite retailer stocks a bit of everything to get you from point A to point B, be it lightweight spring sweaters, stylish and breezy buttondown shirting, durable-yet-stretchy chinos and denim and of course, an array of rugged, handsome leather boots.

The shot above is but, well, a preview of all of that, with much more to come. Yes indeed, if I were you, I’d dive into the Huckberry Spring Preview ASAP to refresh my wardrobe for the season ahead.

That spring wardrobe refresh is certainly on my mind, but not before yet another getaway for the season from New York City. For as much as I love the Big Apple, I look forward to quality family time down in Florida — and in this case, it’s bookended by a spring Caribbean getaway (starting today!) to the lush, tranquil confines of Turks and Caicos!

You can follow along with all the fun on my Instagram, but it’s proven as great a place as any to go for a family getaway these past few years. The occasion? This time, my dad’s birthday — again, keep up with all the fun (and my spring break style tips!) over on Instagram. For now, here are a few additional spring style reads to get your weekend rolling the right way.

  • I’m all about being prepared for whatever spring throws your way, especially when it comes to blustery, breezy and rainy weather. The right tools for the job tend to start coming in handy as soon as you come out the door, and that’s no more true than with one of the best spring rain jackets (like the picks above from AskMen). And with all that being said, you should certainly head over to that esteemed site to check out my seasonal picks. Happy shopping and layering, folks.
  • We talked above about the essential nature of rugged, versatile gear found within the Huckberry Spring Preview, so let’s double down: The tough waxed jacket shown above hails from Flint and Tinder, and it’s among my most essential style picks this week (and for this season in general). So, consider this my wholehearted endorsement to shop the Flint and Tinder American-Made Waxed Mill Jacket for prime seasonal layering (and read this blog post for more insight). Cheers, my friends.
  • Here’s one more style pick for your weekend (before tomorrow’s Style Pick of the Week feature, as regularly scheduled for Saturday, that is). The most durable, hard-wearing spring boots in your rotation — for spring day hikes, weekends away and beyond — deserve the best boot socks, right? The right pair of socks make all the difference, delivering a secure fit, comfort and even warmth on especially breezy spring days, and you can check out my selections for the best boot socks for men over at, well, AskMen.

That’ll wrap up today’s (moderately) deep dive in the world of menswear, with a special focus on the most useful spring style essentials for the days and weeks ahead. Have any brands you’d like to see on the blog? Be sure to let me know in the comments below. Cheers and here’s to a stylish spring weekend!
