The Thursday Buy: This Relwen Canvas Chore Coat is an Instant Outerwear Upgrade

Best chore coats for men.

It’s hard to believe that we’re shifting slowly but surely from burly winter outerwear and some of the best winter jackets into, well, burly and tough-as-nails early spring outerwear for seasonal style transitions, but here we are. And that leads us to today’s featured pick, a true must-buy if you — like me — prize expertly rugged style and frequently wear pieces like one of the best chore coats for men.

If that sounds like you — and I’m guessing it does, if you read the blog on the regular — then the Relwen Canvas Chore Coat could be the latest and greatest piece from the vintage-inspired Ohio brand to find some space in your wardrobe.

The brand has come up time and again in Huckberry reviews on this Brooklyn style blog, and in my experience, the company’s focus on tried-and-true recreations of the classics with a modern twist is much appreciated. That goes for pieces like the iconic Relwen Quilted Tanker Jacket as well as its famed hunting jacket-inspired blazers.

So, to business: What separates the Relwen Canvas Chore Coat from other chore coats you might be eyeing as we step from one season into the next? Well, your new favorite chore coat uses high-tensile cotton and nylon with stretch for plenty of durability and strong yet lightweight layering potential. It’s also water-resistant on the outside (thanks to a polyurethane coated backing finish), and you’ll find the Relwen Canvas Chore Coat is comfortable to wear inside and out: The tricot lining should see to that.

And in my experience, chore coats that are abrasive are no fun to wear — the Relwen Canvas Chore Coat should prove the opposite, whether layered over a midweight flannel, a thermal henley or an American-made T-shirt in warmer weather. You’ll also find the classics are covered in terms of details when it comes to the Relwen Canvas Chore Coat — that means it’s outfitted with a foldover collar, a five-button front and oversized patch pockets (a top-entry chest pocket and side-entry hip pockets) for your everyday carry essentials.

Relwen Canvas Chore Coat review.

One more feature to love about the Relwen Canvas Chore Coat — besides the fact that it comes in a trio of tasteful, wear-with-just-about-anything, lighter colors for spring? It’s finished with a drawstring cord waistband, so you can customize your fit when wearing the hearty Relwen Canvas Chore Coat into the field in inclement weather.

The rest of the time, this handsome chore coat should prove ruggedly casual with light wash jeans, suede chukka boots and your favorite henley. (Slightly) warmer days await ahead, and the Relwen Canvas Chore Coat should be your go-to jacket for all of ’em.

Style Pick of the Week: Schott NYC Lambskin Leather Jacket – An All-Time Classic

I’ve said it before on this blog and I’ll say it again: The classics are the classics for a reason, especially if they’re made by a retailer with a steadfast commitment to timeless style, quality craftsmanship and investment-worthy appeal.

Those are three very high benchmarks to clear when it comes to menswear essentials, but in my experience, Schott NYC consistently clears those benchmarks, and then some.

And you can be sure that if a company has made waves for its emphasis on tradition, style and quality, then its wares are likely sold by Huckberry. Consider ourselves two-for-two as we dive into the first weekly Style Pick of 2025, since the Schott Leather Delivery Jacket is a surefire winner for supremely cool, durable style this season (and beyond, of course).

In short, you can always count on Huckberry, and you can always count on Schott — that holds true for its famously durable moto jackets as much as less-heralded (yet no less stylish) pieces like the Schott Leather Delivery Jacket. Thick, rich lambskin leather and USA-made craftsmanship bolsters this road-ready leather jacket, which is accented by a bi-swing back to give you ease of movement on and off the highway (or reaching for a cold beer at your favorite dive bar).

The black leather of the Schott Leather Delivery Jacket is timeless and tasteful, with a cut that hits above the hip and a collar that can be flipped up to block the wind. In my experience, Schott hardware is also ultra-durable, and that should hold true with this antique-style hardware in particular. As Huckberry calls it, this handsome piece represents the “original delivery man’s jacket reimagined for everyday wear.”

And if you ask me, this piece offers a sense of effortless cool and the knowledge that — yes, for close to $1K — you’re getting a jacket made for life, the kind of piece you should be proud to hang in your closet (and wear as often as possible).

The Sunday Sale: Save 40 Percent On This Classic, Military-Inspired Relwen Combat Jacket at Huckberry

Best military jacket for men.

In my experience, at times, the best style essentials — or rather, most of the best style essentials — draw inspiration from the past to craft rugged, versatile style for the future (and the present). That holds true with throwback-yet-timeless picks like the henley, the Oxford shirt or the blue jean, as well as one of the best military jackets on the market. And that’s where Relwen once again enters the fray.

Assuredly, you know the brand — as sold by Huckberry — if you’ve passed on by this blog over the years. They mine military heritage and classic styles (like one of the coolest shawl cardigans on the market) for looks that are every bit as functional as they are formidable.

And certainly, the Relwen Combat Jacket is no exception, with its Korean and Vietnam War-era military inspiration.

Even better? One of the best men’s military jackets is now on sale for a whopping 40 percent off via the always-intriguing Huckberry Sale section.

Plus, the Relwen Combat Jacket is actually not just one jacket, but two (an even better deal for the current sale price). There’s a handy, warm snap-in liner for breezy spring days and even brisk fall and winter days — one that’s actually also what Huckberry rightfully calls a “handsome bomber jacket.”

This rugged military jacket is packed with bells and whistles aplenty, including a foldover collar you can turn up against the wind — not to mention ribbed cuffs for protection against breezes.

For instance. the Taylor Stitch Fremont Jacket updates the chore jacket silhouette with a fold-over collar, a button-front and a hip-length cut, while its sturdy organic cotton build uses handsome selvage for a high-quality feel.

These pockets are also roomier than those of a traditional denim jacket, a nice touch for the modern man on the go. The washed fabric is supple and sturdy, and the Taylor Stitch Fremont Jacket has a nice, vintage-style look and feel to it.

Style Pick of the Week: Flint and Tinder Flannel-Lined Denim Trucker Jacket

Best denim jacket for men.

Editor’s note: Welcome back to The Style Guide after a brief Friday intermission. Going forward, what would you like to see from the Friday Read? A new direction might be on the way for those weekly posts, so let me know any feedback in the comments.

My friends, we’re back at it again with another look at — you guessed it — one of the best denim jackets for men, or more specifically, we’re back at it again with another look at rugged menswear from Flint and Tinder.

The Huckberry in-house brand is an icon and personal favorite for a reason in terms of the modern menswear pantheon, with durable, rugged and timeless appeal. Of course, the latest and greatest Flint and Tinder trucker jacket builds off the company’s DNA in a way that only Huckberry can.

Best denim jacket for men.

Just in time for prime layering season, the Flint and Tinder Flannel-Lined Denim Jacket is an ideal way to bridge the gap between seasons.

As we move slowly but surely into transitional weather, your new favorite trucker jacket is ready to take on just about anything, in a fashion not all that different from the instantly recognizable, fan favorite Flint and Tinder Waxed Trucker Jacket. In this case, it starts with premium Italian denim from Candiani, which you might call “the good stuff.”

Best denim jacket for men.

Of course, this jacket follows the brand’s penchant for old-school silhouettes like the road-ready trucker jacket, with a few key updates (namely, a cotton denim exterior, of course).

The exterior also uses 2 percent stretch for ease of movement, while the 7oz. cotton-polyester blend lining adds a touch of warmth and comfort to what just might be the perfect transitional jacket.

It also boasts other handsome, throwback details, like a corduroy collar and a pleasingly vintage-inspired Flint and Tinder label. It’s also worth noting that one of the best new jackets from Huckberry comes in both a medium-wash blue denim and a Natural denim, just like the 1950s Lee Rider jackets that inspired it.

And with sturdy Flint and Tinder hardware and that handsome contrasting striped lining, this jacket surely gets the details right. Would you expect anything less from Huckberry, after all? I certainly wouldn’t, and that makes this new release a highly appealing, highly reliable option from the famed retailer.

Style Pick of the Week: Sea Culture Brand Montauk HWY Trucker Jacket – A Casually Rugged New Favorite

If you’ve been swinging by this very blog as you search high and low for essential winter menswear, the kind of pieces you can layer up with to get out there and get after it, then you’re in luck.

That’s because we’re tackling another installment as far as the best jackets for men are concerned, and it’s a new offering from a New York State clothier I’ve come to admire: Sea Culture Brand.

The upstate New York company uses soft, sustainable fabrics and A-plus, classic-meets-modern designs to dream up everything from one of the best men’s henleys to the perfect men’s jacket for spring, and they’ve taken things a step further this winter. That’s apparent with the recent introduction of the Sea Culture Montauk HWY Trucker Jacket, which plays off the timeless style of the trucker jacket and ramps things up with winter comfort and style in mind.

Best trucker jacket for men.

The Sea Culture Montauk HWY Trucker Jacket starts off simply enough, with a handsome, worn-in twill cotton fabric exterior in a deep, versatile navy color. This rugged trucker jacket is then beefed up with an interior 100 percent polyester liner for quilted warmth. The fact that the lining of the Sea Culture Montauk HWY Trucker Jacket is a contrasting, stylish red is a nice touch, as is the branded upper-sleeve patch for vintage style.

Accordingly, Sea Culture Brand also made sure the details were on point, including side slash hip pockets and front chest pockets for your everyday carry. But the coolest part about the Sea Culture Montauk HWY Trucker Jacket is the vintage-inspired, chain stitch detailing on the back, calling out Montauk’s famed waterfront in a seriously cool manner.

It’s one of my personal favorite details of this stylish casual jacket, but its warmth and functionality doesn’t hurt, either. Branded buttons and easy-access zip front really drive home the idea that this is a highly useful winter jacket that doesn’t skimp on style points either, so give this brand a good look as you plan out your next winter #OOTD.

Style Pick of the Week: Flint and Tinder Special Edition Waxed Hudson Jacket

Best men's waxed jacket for fall.

How do you take a certified style classic like one of the best men’s waxed jackets and make it even better? Well, in the case of my friends at Huckberry, that means updating the already famed Flint and Tinder Waxed Hudson Jacket with all-new, custom fabric from one of the best waxed jacket makers on the planet.

It might sound too good to be true, but when it comes to the Flint and Tinder Special Edition Waxed Hudson Jacket, seeing is believing.

It’s already part of a full rotation of the best waxed jackets for men over at the rugged, ever-versatile retailer, and the Flint and Tinder line is already quite hard to beat. In the case of this jacket, it’s the use of British Millerain Tekwax Evolution 8 weather-resistant waxed canvas that gives it plenty of durability and seasonal performance, especially on brisk fall days.

It can also stand up to chillier weather thanks to the flannel interior lining, but the real difference maker here with the Flint and Tinder Special Edition Waxed Hudson Jacket is the unique blackwatch plaid pattern. There are also seriously cool color options available in the everyday version of this hunting-inspired jacket, but that plaid pattern is about as rich and stylish as it gets for the season at hand.

Of course, this all doesn’t come cheap, as the Flint and Tinder Special Edition Waxed Hudson Jacket will set you back about $400 ($398, to be exact).

But given Huckberry’s know-how at finding partners who make the best stuff on the planet (in this case, the best men’s waxed jackets) is something you can trust in, and something that makes it worth the higher price tag. If I were you, I’d add the Flint and Tinder Special Edition Waxed Hudson Jacket to your style rotation ASAP.

Best chore jacket for men.

My friends, sometimes, there’s no getting around it: Even on the hottest summer days, you still might find yourself in need of, say, one of the best chore jackets as the sun goes down.

Be it an evening bonfire, a sunset beach walk or a camping trek up into the mountains, you’d be surprised at how handy a rugged chore jacket can be, particularly one that’s made in America (and made the right way, at that). And that, folks, is where American Giant — one of the best made-in-America style brands, assuredly, factors into the equation with one of the best chore jackets for men.

Learn more at American Giant

Hopefully, you recognize American Giant from making one of the best zip hoodies out there, and the brand has also successfully tried its hand at stylish T-shirts, durable work pants and even some of the best blue jeans. Of course, they do it all right here in the U.S. of A., and the American Giant Roughneck Chore Jacket looks to carry on that legacy in handsome, rugged and durable fashion.

The American Giant Roughneck Chore Jacket takes its cues from the Roughneck line of pants from the brand, and it’s crafted from a 9.5oz. cotton-canvas and spandex blend in El Paso, Texas. That means it’s got some stretch and supple movement to it, but it’s still comfortable enough to wear over a classic American Giant T-shirt on cool summer and early fall nights.

The American Giant Roughneck Chore Jacket is also garment-dyed for added softness, and finished with timeless chore coat touches via three patch pockets to handle your everyday carry essentials. And to suit plenty of stylish combinations, this chore jacket comes in three versatile, rich colors (the Deep Olive shade very well might be my favorite).
