The Sunday Sale: Save 40 Percent On This Durable Huckberry Chore Coat for Spring

Any rotation of spring style essentials, at least according to this Brooklyn style writer, should feature pieces that occupy a versatile, dependable middle ground — pieces that can pull double or triple duty as needed, like one of the best chore coats for men. And that’s where we find ourselves this fine Sunday, diving into the Wellen Maker’s Chore Coat at Huckberry — that it just so happens to be 40 percent off right now (marked down to $118 from $198) is icing on the cake.

Shop the best men’s spring jackets at Huckberry

While the rugged chore coat has roots in real-life workwear (like jackets worn by French painters and field workers), today’s chore coats are a little cooler, more streamlined and as ready for weekend park strolls and brewery visits as they are for a laidback day at the office. The Wellen Maker’s Chore Coat lives up to that versatile billing quite handsomely, carrying on Wellen’s penchant for sustainable production along the way (it’s made from 98 percent organic cotton, with helpful 2 percent spandex for added stretch).

Crucially, the Wellen Maker’s Chore Coat boasts truly functional chore coat touches, like a button flap chest pocket for your everyday carry, plus large patch pockets at the waist — again, all the better to store your everyday carry essentials. There’s also a left chest patch pocket, and those pockets are adorned with Wellen’s distinctive wave stitching. Yes indeed, the Wellen Maker’s Chore Coat also delivers in matters of style, whether you pick up the dark olive Tobala Green color or the handsome Natural version.

As Huckberry shows, this durable chore coat can be worn in the shop or garage, or out on a coastal vacation with ease — that’s what the best chore coats should be able to do in this day and age, and the Wellen Maker’s Chore Coat checks off all the proper boxes — and then some — for a very agreeable 40 percent off. Get to it, my friends.

If you read the blog, you’re well aware of the fact that a heritage outfitter like Filson is the place to go for the best spring style essentials, picks that will serve you well even if you deal more frequently with a city commute than days in the backcountry.

Inspired by, as the brand says, vintage Arctic gear, this rugged anorak streamlines and lightens things up a bit, with design inspiration also coming by way of mountaineering and WWII-era artic smocks.

Colors like Dark Navy and Olive Drab give the Filson Ranger Anorak a classic look and feel, but the Expedition Orange colorway (with contrasting white detailing) is also a standout touch if you like your outerwear with just a touch of flair on drab days. There are helpful touches like a front snap-button pouch pocket, plus a front kangaroo-style pocket, while the drawcord waist offers maximum coverage in rainy, windy conditions.

What are we up to this week at The Style Guide? Well, much like yourself, I’m dusting off my spring style gear, checking out some new spring menswear essentials and preparing to step slowly but surely into a new season. The best way to gear up for a new season varies based on where you live, to be sure, but I like to start from the top down (or the bottom up), and one way to revamp your early, early spring dressing this week? One of the best men’s jackets for spring, a downright cool, casual and classic pick from Todd Snyder’s New Arrivals section.

Learn more at Todd Snyder

The Todd Snyder French Blue Chore Coat, in fact, might be one of the best spring jackets you can get your hands on right now, what with its old-school, workwear appeal and the sort of construction that makes it easy to layer for plenty of days and weeks ahead. This style of jacket, as you might have guessed, was first worn by painters and tradesmen in France, the original home of denim.

The earliest iterations of the fabric lent itself to hard-wearing, hard-working silhouettes, best epitomized for the modern man by the Todd Snyder French Blue Chore Coat. It makes perfect sense that the famed American designer would want to offer up his own take on the silhouette, considering he already crafts one of the best canvas work jackets out there.

It’s a handsome workwear jacket that almost functions as a blazer hybrid, what with its hip patch and chest pockets, plus that rich blue color akin to your go-to blazer. But the Todd Snyder French Blue Chore Coat has a few more details going for it that turn it into an eye-catching spring jacket, including the use of imported Japanese indigo and a breezy, unlined 100 percent cotton construction. Note that the indigo dye on the Todd Snyder French Blue Chore Coat will fade over time, so wear it carefully, but get ready to look for wear patterns that tell unique stories all your own.

After all, with a jacket like the Todd Snyder French Blue Chore Coat — which retails for an investment-worthy $468 — you’re going to want the chance to wear it as often as possible, right? And something with as timeless a design as this handsome indigo blue chore coat offers plenty of style potential.

To wit: Team the Todd Snyder French Blue Chore Coat with a heather grey T-shirt, tan stretch chinos and brown leather chukka boots for a nice mix of high-low style (just like wearing a lightweight blazer over a T-shirt!). Beyond that, look to pair up the Todd Snyder French Blue Chore Coat with a grey Oxford shirt and dark brown chinos or five-pocket pants, all the better for 9-to-5 style and beyond. No matter how you choose to wear it, just know that every guy should have a touch of workwear style is in his rotation this spring, and the standout, investment-level Todd Snyder French Blue Chore Coat is the one to buy now.

Style Pick of the Week: Mack Weldon Atlas Full-Zip Jacket – Winter’s Best Go-Anywhere Jacket

Preparation makes perfect when curating your wardrobe of menswear essentials — or rather, perfect preparation does, in fact, make for the perfect set of curated style picks, like one of the best men’s winter jackets. It’s all about having the right tools on hand for the job, particularly on those days when winter throws you for a loop and feels (slightly) more like spring — for those situations (and more!) turn to the polished, casually cool Mack Weldon Atlas Full-Zip Jacket. It’s your new favorite casual jacket, well-suited for those days when you need a polished jacket for that Zoom call or quick trips around town or, well, just about anything else.

Helpfully, the Mack Weldon Atlas Full-Zip Jacket falls right in line with the brand’s ethos: Crisp, comfortable performance menswear made to suit just about any scenario: Cozy tailored sweats for stylish at-home lounging, one of the best shirt jackets or a set of stretch pants for days at the office, and yes, picks like one of the best men’s casual jackets (that’d be the Mack Weldon Atlas Full-Zip Jacket) for a little bit of everything in between.

When you need a jacket that blends sleek performance with versatile style, the Mack Weldon Atlas Full-Zip Jacket checks all the boxes. Let’s find out why, shall we?

Notably, the Mack Weldon Atlas Full-Zip Jacket bridges the gap between a front-zip workout jacket and a casual bomber jacket — it’s made from water-resistant, stretchy recycled polyester fabric, but racks up the crisp style points and does away with an athletic logo. Think of the Mack Weldon Atlas Full-Zip Jacket like a grab-and-go jacket — throw it on over a Mack Weldon T-shirt or your favorite henley, pair it with Mack Weldon joggers and get out the door in cozy, comfortable style. Note that it also comes in a half-zip design in three cool, neutral colors.

Of course, the Mack Weldon Atlas Full-Zip Jacket manages to take things a step further than the typical casual coat — note the hidden interior zip pocket for your EDC, plus the exterior front zip chest pocket. For good measure, the Mack Weldon Atlas Full-Zip Jacket features a seam-sealed front zipper design, so you can wear it out and about when it’s breezy or drizzling.

Now, this lightweight jacket isn’t one to wear out on its own during a winter blizzard, but on more temperate days, this stylish zip jacket should perform more than adequately. It’s also priced fairly given that it’s sharp enough to work at a casual office alongside a Mack Weldon Oxford shirt, but cool enough to wear any time at all the rest of the week. Figure out your next essential winter layer right now: It’s the Mack Weldon Atlas Full-Zip Jacket

While there are assuredly some men’s style essentials that are a bit more straightforward, like one of the best shawl cardigans or one of winter’s best blazers, there are other menswear picks that blur the lines between the two — in a way that’s rugged, stylish and seriously cool all the while.

That’s because of the hybrid style, of course, and the high-quality specs (keep scrolling for more).

You see, the Buck Mason Interloop Shawl Jacket manages to be easy to layer — thanks to the brushed back French Terry cotton fabric — as well as relatively warm at the same time. You should certainly be able to layer the Buck Mason Interloop Shawl Jacket over one of the brand’s expertly cut and washed shirts, while the shawl collar provides extra protection at the neck (wear it inside the house on drafty days or use it as a mid-layer beneath your favorite peacoat when temperatures plummet).

The Buck Mason Interloop Shawl Jacket also features some more appealing visual details that make it one of the coolest casual men’s jackets out there, like hip patch pockets (similar to a blazer). Double-needle stitching adds a nice dash of durability, while articulated sleeves make it easy to move around even when layered up.

And of course, the Buck Mason Interloop Shawl Jacket is nothing if not timeless in terms of color, be it the Classic Grey option or deep Jet. Either would wear well with some Buck Mason men’s jeans or chinos, any day of the week and any time winter weather hits. Your search for a go-anywhere winter jacket is complete, thanks to the arrival of the Buck Mason Interloop Shawl Jacket. You know where to find it, folks.
