Style Pick of the Week: Flint and Tinder Poplin Draftsman Shirt – A Lightweight Spin on a Daily Style Staple

A new season brings with it a new outlook in matters of style and the best menswear, does it not? Or perhaps, it’s a bit of a fresh take on the classics you know and love, retooled for a new season. These are fresh spins on foundational staples, like one of the best buttondown shirts for men — as crisp and breezy to wear to a backyard BBQ as at the office when you select the right one, you very well might find what you’re looking for at Huckberry via the company’s in-house, utterly fantastic and foundational Flint and Tinder line of menswear.

The roster at Flint and Tinder is packed with Americana-tinged staples like rugged waxed trucker jackets, vintage-inspired denim jackets, dusty faded denim, eye-catching patterned short-sleeve shirts, and the one, the only, the near-perfect Flint and Tinder Draftsman Shirt.

Over the years, my Flint and Tinder reviews have covered a bit of everything from the modern fan-favorite, with plenty more where that came from in store. The brand looks to everything from the American West to East Coast Ivy prep for style inspiration, and it shows in a lineup of A-to-Z menswear favorites you can practically mix and match (especially the brand’s best-selling Flint and Tinder 365 Pants alongside picks like the Flint and Tinder Draftsman Shirt.

Now, with heat on the horizon and around the corner, the Flint and Tinder Poplin Draftsman Shirt lightens things up considerably while keeping the same classic silhouette and style points top of mind. This crisp, expertly cut takes on the character of a shirt, as Huckberry says, worn reliably by Mid-Century architects (perfect for rolling up your sleeves and getting to work, my friends).

With its nicely cut and face-framing buttondown collar and chest pocket for casual style points and visual appeal, this shirt is practically a do-it-all shirt (even able to be worn with a soft-shouldered blazer and linen trousers this season). Even the chest pocket boasts contrast stitching and an old-school pen slot for real-world utility.

Plus, the Flint and Tinder Poplin Draftsman Shirt is also garment washed for softness right out of the Huckberry bag or box — comfort in every stitch, my friends.

Your new favorite buttondown shirt also comes in a range of colors so engaging and stylish (including a Wide Blue Utility Stripe, timeless White and an earthy Olive Three-Check pattern). If I were you, I’d certainly consider picking up more than one color or pattern, then teaming them up with crisply cut stretch chinos in a variety of contrasting colors — among other ways you can rock the Flint and Tinder Poplin Draftsman Shirt. Style in the heat has never looked so good, or been so easy — at least, that’s my experience wearing Huckberry, my friends.

The Sunday Sale: Get 15 Percent Off This Classic Men’s Shirt from Freemans Sporting Club

Freemans Sporting Club review

A new favorite casual shirt that you can even wear with a spring or summer suit.

Who’s ready to get 15 percent off a classic men’s shirt from Freemans Sporting Club? That sounds like a resounding “Yes” to me, so let’s get to it. Now, in last week’s Sunday Sale, we talked about getting a deal on the best T-shirt for men for spring and summer, but we’re going to amp things up a bit today. Namely, remember your trusty rotation of casual buttondown shirts, the sort of shirts you’d wear to the office and now (mainly) wear on Zoom calls? Well, this is that shirt, and it’s on sale until April 30th (more on that in a moment).america
That’s where today’s deal on one of the best shirts for men comes into play, because you’re going to have to really get dressed again eventually. Be it a summer wedding, perhaps a date or a coffee run or a brewery visit (those last two are favorites of mine in Brooklyn!), you’re going to need a new favorite shirt, which leads us to today’s deal on a new Freemans Sporting Club shirt. The Freemans Sporting Club CS-1 Shirt in Navy Plaid is about as classic as it gets, with all the bells and whistles that you need (note the tailored fit and the casual chest pocket), and nothing extra to slow you down. It’s part of the Freemans Sporting Club Archive Sale, which in and of itself is a great place to get the best deals on premium menswear from this New York City brand.

A great way to wear your new favorite shirt.

It’s one of the best men’s buttondown shirts for a reason, with a price tag to match (it’s 15 percent off at FSC, which drops the price to $187). Why spend that much on a shirt? I’m glad you asked. It’s a shirt you can call your own, an entirely unique and outstanding shirt from a respected fashion brand, the kind you can wear underneath a khaki cotton suit at a summer wedding or all on its own with your favorite pair of spring and summer denim, high-top sneakers laced up and sleeves rolled. And just as above, you can certainly wear one of the coolest shirts for spring with olive chinos and brown leather boots.
