Spring and summer bring forth many possible adventures on and off the trail and the water, so it might seem like a natural fit for more low-key footwear, like a pair of the best men’s sneakers (preferably styled with chino shorts). But there’s still something to be said for old standbys, like a pair of the best work boots.

And even if your “work” these days consists of tracking down a cold lager at a Brooklyn brewery, a pair of the best boots for men can still come in mighty handy when paired up with, say, some stylish light wash jeans and your favorite henley.

If those boots can be had on sale, then even better — and that’s the case with the FRYE Hudson Workboots, a rugged pair of handsome suede leather boots crafted with premium apron-toe stitching.

It gets even better beyond the specs themselves: You can find these boots online at FRYE right now for more than 30 percent off. That discount drops them below $250, making them quite the steal for some of the best men’s boots.

The specs on the FRYE Hudson Workboots are certainly on point, as one might expect, including the rugged rubber lugged outsole for added traction. Double-reinforced stitching also delivers durability across the upper, while the insole is fully wrapped in leather for a smooth ride underfoot.

Keep in mind that the FRYE Hudson Workboots are more of a rugged style move than a tried-and-true steel toe work boot, but for all manner of casually cool spring style situations where things might get a bit breezy, these are an apt move to team with your favorite pair of blue jeans.
