Style Pick of the Week: Bespoke Post x Schott NYC Leather Rancher Jacket – Back & Better than Ever

Bespoke Post x Schott NYC Leather Jacket.

Some menswear collaborations, even some of the best menswear partnerships, are so rare that they tend to flash in the pan and never return, arriving for one season and then being whisked away on the wind.

That might seem like hyperbole when it comes to the best menswear essentials, especially ones sold by Bespoke Post, but sometimes, it just so happens to be true — and yet, that’s not the case with the return of the Bespoke Post x Schott NYC Roughout Leather Rancher Jacket. It takes inspiration from 1930s service jackets, and only gets better from there.

As you might recall, Schott and Bespoke Post teamed up last year on the perfect jacket for fall, and a new edition of one of the best leather jackets for men returns just in time for “shoulder season.” The Bespoke Post x Schott NYC Roughout Leather Rancher Jacket hits the mark perfectly in terms of an heirloom leather jacket for men, to say the very least.

And as you might expect, it was made specifically for the acclaimed retailer (also a purveyor of some of the best subscription boxes for men, as you know if you read this Brooklyn style blog).

The Bespoke Post x Schott NYC Roughout Leather Rancher Jacket is American-made from rich roughout leather, the kind with standout texture and durability — a hallmark for decades with Schott, which routinely makes some of the best moto jackets on the market. Antique copper hardware adorns this handsome jacket, which also boasts a chest zipper pocket and handy side hip pockets to store everyday carry essentials aplenty.

The rugged Bespoke Post x Schott NYC Roughout Leather Rancher Jacket, at least in this year’s new release, boasts a durable contrasting leather collar and a rich, hard-wearing construction, the kind that should feel relatively supple out of the box while breaking in wonderfully over time.

And at the splurge-worthy price of $825, it’s a safe bet that you’ll want to get plenty of wear out of your new favorite leather jacket — particularly atop fall style classics like a rugged henley and expertly faded blue jeans.

It’s hard to find one iteration of an iconic leather jacket in a special collaborative build, much less a second edition, but the Bespoke Post x Schott NYC Roughout Leather Rancher Jacket lives up to its billing and then some — find your size while it’s still around, and then proceed to wear it in casually rugged fashion as often as yo ucan.

Inspired by classic workwear styles, the Line of Trade Frank Shirt is the sort of shirt you can reach for any day of the week, one that’s able to pair with everything from classic denim to expertly cut chinos. It doesn’t hurt that its build is tailored and crisp yet easy to wear — it’s not a more formal dress shirt, yet it’s more polished than a polo, for instance.

Made from 100 percent cotton in a variety of versatile colors, it’s the type of piece that simply looks great any way you style it, in any season at all. The choice is yours as to which option you opt for, be it a rich Coffee Herringbone hue or a deep indigo variety, another personal favorite.

Again, either variety of the Line of Trade Frank Shirt wears especially well at the office, on the weekend and every day in between. It toes the line between formal and casual in expert fashion, which in my experience is always something great to have in your closet.

In my experience, the Line of Trade Frank Shirt is a surefire style winner, one that’s sure to stand the test of time.

Style Pick of the Week: Line of Trade Mason Short-Sleeve Shirt – A Winning Summer Move from Bespoke Post

Bespoke Post men's shirt review.

In my experience, your summer #OOTD and your summer wardrobe in general need a wardrobe workhorse or two, pieces built with versatility and a no-fuss, no-frills approach. These pieces, like one of the best men’s short-sleeve shirts or one of the best USA-made T-shirts, are simple on the surface, yet made with versatility and durability in mind.

Take the Line of Trade Mason Short-Sleeve Shirt. It hails from Bespoke Post, purveyors of one of the best subscription boxes for men — as well as a full line of easygoing, easily wearable men’s style essentials.

It’s somewhere between a casually rugged pocket T-shirt and a slightly more formal polo or an Oxford shirt. That makes it perfect for in-between days this summer, like a BBQ — layered over a classic T-shirt — or a day at your favorite brewery (styled on its own alongside the best chino shorts for men).

The key with the Line of Trade Mason Short-Sleeve Shirt? Its textured waffle weave, which gives it some depth, plus a laidback look and feel. Workwear button chest pockets give it a more rugged feel as well, not unlike an old-school shop shirt.

Line of Trade men's shirt review.

The weave of the Line of Trade Mason Short-Sleeve Shirt itself is also a two-tone weave, so it stands out stylishly, even in a darker color (like the navy option shown here). And as with all things Bespoke Post, it features a reliable build and quality at a very agreeable price.

In fact, the Line of Trade Mason Short-Sleeve Shirt retails for $65, a fair price considering that you can even wear it as a casual shirt beneath a soft-shouldered summer blazer. The benefit of that particular move? Staying cool in the heat by shedding some extra fabric.

However you choose to wear the Line of Trade Mason Short-Sleeve Shirt, it’s yet another Bespoke Post menswear essential that gets the job done in matters of form and function.

Best bomber jacket for fall.

There comes a time in every guy’s life when he’s got to make a choice: The choice to layer up and save some cash in the process is ideal, but it doesn’t come around all that often. Or at least, it doesn’t come around all that often if you’re not already on the lookout for one of the best bomber jackets, like the Line of Trade Outfield Bomber Jacket from my friends at Bespoke Post.

The famed NYC brand bridges the gap with this in-house-designed jacket, and between seasons, quite handsomely.

The Sunday Sale: This Bespoke Post Shirt Can Be Yours for Under $50

Line of Trade shirt review.

The cornerstones of a stylish everyday men’s wardrobe might appear simple on the surface, but they’re anything but that once you take a closer look. Consider this Line of Trade shirt from Bespoke Post, for instance. It’s part of the in-house line of everyday essentials from the NYC-based direct-to-consumer brand, which specializes in a balance of casual classics and rugged gear.

This shirt falls in the “casual classics” realm, no doubt. It looks like a classic men’s shirt, to be sure, but it’s the use of brushed end-on-end fabric that gives it depth and texture — plus softness, which makes it an even easier men’s shirt to wear than a timeless Oxford shirt. Not a bad option to have in your closet, right?

Shop Bespoke Post Sale deals now

Here’s where things get even better: For a limited time, the Line of Trade Arrow Shirt (at least in this medium-blue textured option) can be yours for under $50. Granted, it’s only available as of now in sizes Small through Large, but there are also plenty of the best menswear deals via the rest of the well-stocked Bespoke Post Sale section (even after Labor Day weekend sales earlier this month!).

The fan-favorite menswear retailer describes it as a three-season buttondown, and since it’s made from textured 100 percent cotton, it’s easy to see this shirt working in a variety of seasonal style situations. And if you act quickly to score your size, the Line of Trade Arrow Shirt can prove an excellent deal in terms of form and function.

The Thursday Buy: This Field Watch from Bespoke Post is An Affordable EDC Upgrade

Best field watch for men to buy this spring.

If you’re anything like me, perhaps you’ve amassed quite the collection of everyday timepieces over the years: Rugged, dependable, versatile, with leather straps or NATO straps… the list goes on in assembling any collection of the best men’s watches.

My own collection includes brands like Shinola, but I’m always on the hunt for the best affordable watches, especially from a trusted retailer. Naturally, that lends itself well to a company like Bespoke Post, which curates one of the best subscription boxes for men — and also stocks plenty of the best men’s gear, including EDC upgrades like the one in front of you today.

And the watch in question today is an astonishing one for the price: It’s the Wren Field Watch, a subtly stylish, reliable and durable watch available right now for under $150. Believe me when I say it packs a ton of bells and whistles into one highly affordable package, the kind you’re not apt to find all that many other places on the market.

Best field watch for men this year.

If per chance you’ve been following me on Instagram, you know that I’ve had the chance as of late to test out this rugged field watch, which performs well from coffee shop to concert to bar — and back again, of course. Yes indeed, the Wren Field Watch hits the right specs, from the PVD -coated stainless steel case (clocking in at a slightly larger 44mm case diameter) to the wear-with-anything nylon pass-through strap.

It’s the kind of casually cool watch right at home with your favorite spring shorts and a breezy polo in casual style situations aplenty, but a few touches turn the Wren Field Watch into a watch you can truly wear, well, out into the field. The Wren Field Watch is water-resistant up to 100 meters, so while it’s not a pro diving watch, it can get wet during a day on the water (that nylon strap dries quickly, too).

Plus, the Wren Field Watch boasts luminescent markings and indices, and the coolest touch of all might be the usable rotating compass bezel — how cool is that? Oversized numerals at 12-o’clock and 6-o’clock deliver nice legibility, while the dial has directional markings to help with that compass utility.

It’s worth remembering that you’re getting the Wren Field Watch for under $150, and that’s a heck of a deal when you really dive into it. Pick it up in a flash, then start plotting your next adventure with your new favorite casual watch.
