When it comes to absolutely indispensable men’s style must-haves for fall, the pieces that are going to deliver the most versatility, variety and rugged appeal day in and day out, I’d rank one of the best flannel shirts for men pretty high on my own list.

Take Relwen: The Ohio-based brand takes style cues from heritage menswear, including the flannel shirts and military essentials of days gone by, and that’s why the company is such a big part of the lineup at fan-favorite adventure retailer Huckberry.

If you’ve shopped the retailer as of late, you know they’ve got some of the very best fall gear on the market, cut from rich seasonal fabrics and available in handsome colors and patterns — not unlike the options available when it comes to the Relwen Flyweight Flannel Shirt. The best men’s flannel shirts are the autumnal version of the all-season Oxford shirt, with the proper seasonal fabric and durable design to match.

As far as the handsome Relwen Flyweight Flannel Shirt is concerned, that means this one uses durable and yet soft 100 percent cotton flannel that’s been brushed for softness.

And it doesn’t hurt that the classically cut Relwen Flyweight Flannel Shirt comes in a selection of timeless, eye-catching plaids and some neutral color options made to style with everything from olive to charcoal to navy. My personal favorite of the Relwen Flyweight Flannel Shirt lineup is a Dark Honey shade that would wear expertly with dark blue selvedge jeans.

The Relwen Flyweight Flannel Shirt also features reinforced stitching at stress points, while the collar is finished with classic and yet slightly more casual buttons for a fit that you can dress down atop a henley or dress up beneath a navy wool blazer.

For dependable style, an expert fit, soft fabric and just plain stylish good looks… lean on the classics, and the classics made modern — like one of the best new fall flannel shirts from Huckberry.

See Now, Buy Now: This Flint and Tinder Washed Denim Shirt is a Modern Spin on an Icon

I don’t know about you, but as I scour the market high and low for the best gear for men, I tend to turn to retailers — and style silhouettes — I know and trust. It’s something we’ve talked a lot about here on this Brooklyn style blog, but it can pay big-time dividends to be able to shop the same retailers and brands consistently, and that’s why I find myself turning nearly on the daily to Huckberry.

They’re purveyors of everything from the stylish Flint and Tinder denim shirt shown above to staple pieces like the best waxed trucker jackets, dependable stretch jeans, rugged boots and much, much more (so much more!).

The Austin-based retailer has a near 15-year history of rugged, durable, stylish gear with an eye towards the classics, and for about 10 years, Flint and Tinder (starting with the famed Flint and Tinder 10-Year Hoodie) has been a major part of that journey.

It makes absolutely perfect sense that the company updates the classics with each passing season, from one of the best new chore coats to a vintage-inspired denim shirt with military-grade detailing. Here just in time to start the transition (slowly but surely!) from late summer into early, early fall, the Flint and Tinder Washed Denim Shirt utterly delivers when it comes to top-notch design and construction, retro inspiration and hard-working appeal.

The specs on the Flint and Tinder Washed Denim Shirt are precisely what you might expect from Huckberry, in the best way possible. The denim shirt has a durable heritage, after all, from the Wild West to the factory floor, and this number uses military-grade Japanese Urea buttons for a dependable finish.

Best denim shirts for men.

Super-soft, broken-in cotton denim gives your new favorite denim shirt easy wearability right out of the box, while two flap front chest pockets deliver the workshirt utility you need to store your everyday carry. The handsome Light Wash fabrication of the Flint and Tinder Washed Denim Shirt is my personal favorite, with the ability to team with black jeans, grey stretch chinos, olive drawstring pants or tobacco corduroys come the colder months.

The Flint and Tinder Washed Denim Shirt also boasts standout layering potential — consider wearing it atop a thermal henley or a heavyweight pocket tee as temperatures start to drop in the weeks ahead. It’s also hard not to appreciate the use of contrast white stitching throughout the shirt.

Shop men’s shirting and more at Huckberry

As with other Flint and Tinder menswear from Huckberry, it should prove rugged and built to last (especially in its eye-catching Natural shade, a fashionable departure from the norm as far as the best denim shirts for men are concerned).

With durability, classic style and layering potential top of mind, the best men’s denim shirts are a must-buy for any casually cool fall menswear collection, and I couldn’t agree more with what Huckberry has dreamed up via the Flint and Tinder Washed Denim Shirt.

3sixteen Crosscut Flannel Shirt review.

Chest pockets give the 3sixteen Crosscut Flannel Shirt the utility of an overshirt, while the rich, earthy plaid color is a stylish addition to any fall wardrobe.

Where to turn to when you need a rugged, dependable and warm layer for fall, like one of the best men’s flannel shirts? That’s easy, and if you’ve ever had any experience with today’s featured brand, you’re surely aware that they can deliver the goods when it comes to essential fall shirting. I’m talking, of course, about the Filson Western Flannel Shirt, a stellar new offering from the famed Pacific Northwest heritage retailer. Hopefully, you’ve done your fair share of shopping in recent weeks from places like the well-stocked Filson Last Chance Sale section, but if not, here’s your chance to dive into Filson’s New Arrivals in full force, because the Filson Western Flannel is one of the most rugged and well-made shirts you’re apt to find on the market right now. It’s everything you could want from a fresh take on the classic Western shirt, especially considering Filson’s long-standing commitment to both style points and hard-wearing construction.

Filson has the best men’s shirts on the market

The Filson Western Flannel is a perfect happy medium between other shirts in your closet: It’s not as formal or buttoned-up as an Oxford shirt, it’s got an in-between weight compared to a shirt jacket, and yet, it can work comfortably in most any style situation or fall pursuit. That goes for road trips and days around town in equal measure, because the Faded Black color is perfectly cool to throw on with, say, a pair of Filson indigo denim for day-to-night style. Of course, because it’s Filson, the ultra-dependable Filson Western Flannel packs in a whole lot of functionality, too.

The Filson Western Flannel Shirt stands apart from other flannel shirts in your rotation thanks to the use of 6.2oz. brushed cotton twill flannel, a substantial, sturdy and yet not too heavy fabric that’s ideal for wearing on its own or layering atop a rugged Filson henley, for starters. You also get the sort of Western detailing that’s both throwback-inspired and surprisingly of the moment, with curved and pointed front and back yokes, just like Western shirts in days gone by. The Filson Western Flannel Shirt also amps things up a notch with faux-horn buttons for distinctive contrast against the faded black cotton twill flannel.

Shop Filson shirts now

The Filson Western Flannel Shirt has plenty going for it in terms of style points, with the right sort of weight to be layered atop a graphic T-shirt or a Filson thermal shirt most of the time. And then, when temperatures really start to plummet, the Filson Western Flannel can be worn beneath a Filson waxed jacket for warmth and weather-ready style. The potential mileage in terms of wearability is nearly limitless when you really step back and look at the quality and the durable build of this Western flannel shirt. It all gets better when you also step back and look at the relatively fair price tag ($135 at Filson). Considering this could quickly become a go-to flannel shirt, it’s pretty clear to me that you need the Filson Western Flannel in your closet ASAP.

The Thursday Buy: This Western Rise Shirt is the Most Versatile Men’s Shirt for Fall

Western Rise AirLight Buttondown Shirt

The time is upon us for you to upgrade your fall wardrobe — both for style at home and on the road, and the easiest way to do that? Why, that’d be with the Western Rise AirLight Button-Down Shirt, one of the best men’s shirts for fall. That seriously counts for something, even if these days, you’re more inclined to put on something like this Western Rise shirt for a Zoom call as opposed to a day at the office. But the adage holds true: Whether you wear it on a day of fall adventures (I see a distillery visit or a quick beer garden stop in your future) or a day at home, you can’t go wrong with the Western Rise AirLight Shirt. In fact, it’s an equally fitting compliment to, say, the Western Rise Evolution Pants (as previously seen on the blog), so it’s worth upgrading your fall shirting if only for that reason.

Western Rise review

What separates the Western Rise AirLight Button-Down Shirt from the rest of your fall shirting? My friends, I’m so glad you asked. It starts with the comfort stretch fabric, engineered to resists stains and odor (crucial during these busy work-from-home days, if you ask me). The AirLight cloth blends nylon and polyester for a comfortable look, fit and feel, and the styling of this shirt means it’s tailored but not overly tight. To me, that makes it the perfect shirt to wear at home, out on the road or in the field (preferably layered up with a waxed canvas jacket, right?). Yes indeed, the Western Rise AirLight Shirt is a subtly stylish, performance-minded shirt that checks all the right boxes — it’s easily one of the best men’s shirts for fall, and it’s now yours for the taking.

#OOTD: Try Out This New Way to Wear an Old-School Western Shirt

Quick, think of the array of stylish men’s shirts you’ve likely got in your closet for fall. From a classic Oxford shirt to your favorite chambray shirt, perhaps you feel like you’ve got plenty of options, right? Particularly when it comes to casually rugged fall style, too? Well, think again, because I’d wager you don ‘t yet have a classic Western shirt like the Levi’s x Outerknown Wellthread Western Shirt — it’s the centerpiece of today’s #OOTD, and it’s the perfect shirt to carry you through many a fall style situation. To wit: The Western shirt is a somewhat overlooked style staple (at least in my book), one that often calls to mind denim-on-denim — and not done the right way, either. But the Western shirt is a prime fall style move, especially when worn as you’ll see it today. What do we mean specifically? Well, the Levi’s x Outerknown Wellthread Western Shirt is different than your typical Western shirt, made from textured fabric in a pleasing fall color — the kind that’s going to stand out whether you wear this look on a weekend coffee date, a brewery outing or an upstate weekend getaway (or some combination of all three, at that). The point is that the best Western shirt out there is visually interesting, slightly edgy & thoroughly classic — exactly what you need to add to your rotation of fall style essentials. Let’s get to the full #OOTD below.

Rugged gear picks to shift how you think about wearing a Western shirt.

  • The Western Shirt: Levi’s x Outerknown Wellthread Western Shirt, $128 — Shaking up the way you wear your Western shirt often starts with reaching for a different option altogether — and Levi’s x Outerknown deliver a stylish, sustainable, rugged AND visually interesting choice here.
  • The Henley: Wellen Hemp Long-Sleeve Henley, $39.98 — Rugged, classic and every bit as sustainable as the Western shirt you’re pairing it with, this is your new favorite henley for fall.
  • The Pants: Taylor Stitch Camp Pants, $128 — Now, your choice of rugged fall pants is entirely up to you here — you could also go with slim tan chinos or classic blue denim,  but it’s tough to top the versatile appeal of the Taylor Stitch Camp Pants.
  • The Jacket: Taylor Stitch Long Haul Jacket in Indigo Waffle, $188 — Let’s go for two in a row when it comes to rugged Taylor Stitch gear. The Taylor Stitch Long Haul Jacket has long been a personal favorite, and this richly textured take is no different. Perfect to wear with your new favorite henley for fall.
  • The Boots: Astorflex Bootflex Boots, $195 — Are these Astorflex Bootflex Boots some of the best leather boots for fall? Yes. Will you want to wear them all the time, even aside from this #OOTD? Also, yes. The perfect pair of fall footwear.
  • The Watch: VAER Watches Heritage Watch, $176.98 — Only one of the best men’s leather watches will do in this case, and this rugged VAER watch is a perfect complement to the rest of these fall style essentials.
  • The Beard Oil: Duluth Trading Co. Spit and Polish Beard Oil, $19.95 — Fall is as great a time as any to get your facial hair in fine form, and Duluth Trading Co. has come through with an excellent new beard oil to help you do just that.
  • The Grooming Essential: Duke Cannon Trench Warfare Natural Charcoal Deodorant, $12 — I’ve long been a fan of Duke Cannon’s rugged and essential grooming products, and this highly effective natural charcoal deodorant is no different. The perfect way to round out an #OOTD.

So, are you onboard with the Levi’s x Outerknown Wellthread Western Shirt and the potential it brings to the table? While at first simple, these top gear picks really are as good as it gets, and they’re as primed for a weekend of fall adventures, from your favorite park to a new art museum and evening cocktails, as you are. Layer up with your new favorite henley for fall and then get out there — that combo offers protection from the elements should you need it, and the Taylor Stitch Long Haul Jacket is a crucial fall outerwear pick-up. It adds a ton of visual interest to this look, and the Taylor Stitch Camp Pants are a necessary fall accessory in this instance — they’re ready to get outdoors or go all around town, and look great while doing it. With an #OOTD like this, there’s also no better fall footwear option than some of the best leather boots for fall, guaranteed. What’s more, essential accessories like one of the best men’s leather watches help drive home the true versatility and style of this outfit — you’re going to stand out the right way, truly. To keep your mug fresh, turn toward a standout new beard oil from Duluth Trading Co. (a move you won’t regret, trust me) and then be sure to use an equally excellent natural charcoal deodorant from Duke Cannon — got all of that down? Great: It’s time to get out there and enjoy fall.

A newly iconic shirt in a perfect fall texture.

If you pass through the digital pages of The Style Guide with any regularity, you’ll know we love the work being done by the San Francisco-based team at Taylor Stitch. It nearly goes without saying, but they produce some of the best men’s gear (and the best men’s shirts!) your money can buy. And on that note, well, that’s where the Taylor Stitch Jack Shirt comes into play. Specifically, the Jack Shirt in Heather Ash Waffle — it’s richly crafted, it’s endlessly versatile, and as the headline says above, it’s your new favorite shirt, guaranteed. As per usual, that would, at first glance, seem to be overly high praise … but again, Taylor Stitch can back it up.
The Best Basics. Summer Ready.

Where does it all start when it comes to one of the best men’s shirts for fall? It starts, naturally, with the rich and rugged fabric. For those days when you want to add some variety to your everyday #OOTD, the Taylor Stitch Jack Shirt in Heather Ash Waffle is just what the doctor ordered. Made from 100 percent organic cotton in a  pleasing-but-not-too-heavy 6.5oz. weight, it’s got the perfect texture to wear on its own or layer up over a rugged henley — that’s fall style at its best, if you ask me.

The stylish shirt to wear all fall.

The fit of the Taylor Stitch Jack Shirt is also perfectly on-point, trim and tailored but not too tight in the slightest (I go with a size 40 for reference — see how I style it on Instagram). And when it comes to seasonal versatility, this new take on the Taylor Stitch Jack Shirt has that in spades. Case in point: You  can wear this classic fall shirt with slim dark denim or olive chinos on its own through the weekend, or layer it up with a classic navy blazer and tan five-pocket pants to head to the office. It adds just enough variety and visual interest compared to more straightforward shirts, and in my book, that makes it a winner — big-time. Shake up your fall style ASAP with what could just be your new favorite shirt.
