Pieces that stand the test of time in your wardrobe, whether through style points, utility or classic looks — or a combination of all three — are to be treasured and worn as often as possible, in my opinion. And if you’ve been reading the blog as of late, you know that hardly a brand out there hits those three tentpoles quite like legendary Pacific Northwest outfitter Filson.

From some of the best waxed jackets to sturdy T-shirts, durable blue jeans, hard-wearing work pants and some of the finest tool and travel bags on the market, Filson menswear lives up to its mission, and then some. Take the Filson Lightweight Alaskan Guide Shirt. It’s been in the company’s rotation for years, and with good reason.

As the company says, it’s a lighter-weight version of its iconic Alaskan Guide Shirt, which is typically made with burlier, thicker fabric to serve as a hard-working overshirt or even a mid-layer in especially brisk conditions.

The Filson Lightweight Alaskan Guide Shirt uses sturdy yet breathable 6oz. 100 percent cotton twill for a tightly woven layer that works as a breezy shirt jacket of sorts over a T-shirt, or else a buttondown to be worn with ease beneath your favorite denim jacket. Of course, the hits keep rolling from there.

This rugged shirt (or shirt jacket) is fit for work or play, thanks to that durable weave and a relaxed fit that encourages layering. That holds true whether you rock it over a USA-made T-shirt, worn unbuttoned on a spring day, or else atop a rugged long-sleeve henley for brisk seasonal mornings and nights.

Helpfully, the Filson Lightweight Alaskan Guide Shirt features oversized front-button chest pockets for easy storage of everyday carry essentials, and it comes in a massive array of sizes. Plus, a handful of distinct, timeless and tasteful color options provide variety for your spring and summer wardrobe (and beyond). For the brisk, breezy days ahead this season, layer up with the Filson Lightweight Alaskan Guide Shirt — it’s a move you won’t regret.
