Style Pick of the Week: Flint and Tinder Vintage Soft Wash T-Shirt – A True Modern Classic

Best T-shirts for men.

We often talk here on this Brooklyn style blog about adorning your wardrobe with the classics, with modern updates to staple pieces that can stand the test of time, look great while doing so and deliver a dash of casually rugged style to your menswear wardrobe — in any season, of course.

That holds true with the basics from the ground up, but it’s particularly important when selecting one of the best T-shirts for men, and that’s where our friends at Huckberry deliver a winner (yet again I might add).

After all, you can wear one of the best men’s T-shirts for work or play, for BBQs or lounging on the front porch, for day hikes or days in the garage, for afternoons at the brewery and just about everything in between.

Yessir, when it comes to your weekend style ensemble, there’s not much that can get as much done as the humble T-shirt — you best make yours a great one, like the Flint and Tinder Vintage Wash T-shirt.

In the annals of menswear, the right T-shirt simply delivers the goods, and you can trust Huckberry to come up with their own spin on an iconic favorite.

There’s plenty to love about the Flint and Tinder Vintage Wash T-shirt, starting with the fact that it’s made in the USA and finished with a garment-wash treatment for an exceptional level of softness. The use of 4.5 oz. cotton, in my experience, makes this T-shirt soft and highly wearable: It holds its shape and structure over time, whether you select one in a crisp color like Black or my personal favorite, Olive (you can see me wearing a Flint and Tinder pocket T-shirt in a very similar construction and color above, over on my Instagram).

Yes, to say I’m a big fan of the Flint and Tinder Vintage Wash T-shirt in its many variations — including Classic or Tall fits, plus eight timeless colors — is an understatement, and I think you’ll start to feel the same way about the Flint and Tinder Vintage Wash T-shirt the more you wear it.

Better still is the fact that you can bundle multiple options of the handsome, easygoing yet hard-wearing Flint and Tinder Vintage Wash T-shirt and save — buy three, in fact, and save 15% on the Flint and Tinder Vintage Wash T-shirt. The next time you reach into your T-shirt drawer, in search of a tee to wear with light wash jeans, chinos or even laidback lounge shorts, make sure it’s this best-selling Huckberry T-shirt.

Buck Mason T-shirt review.

In my experience, it’s a special thing to be able to lean on a certain men’s style essential whenever you need it, whenever the occasion calls for it.

Best casual T-shirt for men.

I tend to say sometimes here at your favorite Brooklyn style blog that they don’t make ’em like they used to, unless, of course, we’re talking about the best menswear from Huckberry. The retailer, which specializes in the classics made modern, all in rugged-yet-versatile fashion that’s geared for adventure, still hones in on what makes iconic styles great.

And in the case of the Flint and Tinder Vintage Slub Pocket T-Shirt, that just so happens to mean that they’re making this subtly stylish, versatile men’s T-shirt in the United States from premium materials.

In this instance, that means they’re using garment-dyed slub cotton jersey fabric for a soft touch and soft finish, whether layered up underneath your favorite chambray shirt, worn beneath one of the best denim trucker jackets or styled all on its own with breezy chino shorts.

Huckberry notes that the use of slub cotton jersey fabric gives the Flint and Tinder Vintage Slub Pocket T-Shirt some weight, durability and texture, and it should prove the kind of T-shirt that doesn’t lose its shape over time. The chest pocket on the aptly named Flint and Tinder Vintage Slub Pocket T-Shirt also gives it a touch of subtle style — it makes this classic T-shirt look less like an undershirt, and much more like a casually cool T-shirt you can wear all on its own.

And especially when paired with rolled light wash denim and suede chukka boots, the Flint and Tinder Vintage Slub Pocket T-Shirt is going to prove an expert laidback style move. It also comes in a range of colors and sizes, and Flint and Tinder’s fit should prove flattering without being too baggy or too tight.

It’s precisely what you want in one of the best T-shirts for men, especially one of the best American-made T-shirts. And since they just don’t make ’em like they used to anymore, it’s worth securing the Flint and Tinder Vintage Slub Pocket T-Shirt while you’ve got the chance this spring.

The Thursday Buy: This Rugged Buck Mason Crew is the Perfect Layer to End Summer

Best lightweight sweater for men.

There’s going to come a time in your search for men’s style essentials where you need a piece or two that the line between “too much” and “just right.” Allow me to explain, folks.

In the same way that you need a lightweight blazer and lightweight men’s jeans for summer, rather than something cut for fall or winter, a transitional T-shirt to carry you from late summer into early fall can prove quite handy in a multitude of situations — even more than you might think, in fact.

And this, my friends, is where Buck Mason comes into play with the Buck Mason Field-Spec Rugby Crew. If you follow along with the blog, you know it’s easier than ever to find what you’re looking for at the rugged, all-American retailer, and the ante is upped even further.

Shop Buck Mason T-shirts now

You see, the Buck Mason Field-Spec Rugby Crew is neither as lightweight as the brand’s perfectly breezy, expertly crafted USA-made tees, nor is it as heavy as some Buck Mason sweaters for the fall and winter months — in short, it’s the perfect T-shirt to close out summer and look towards fall.

And as its name would imply, the Buck Mason Field-Spec Rugby Crew is a rough-and-tumble piece you can wear casually (beneath a chambray shirt or your favorite zip hoodie at a late summer bonfire) or for pursuits far afield (layered over a waxed jacket on a camping trip). It’s made from a cotton jersey fabric that’s twice as heavy as Buck Mason T-shirts, so it should drape nicely and layer easily.

Note that the Buck Mason Field-Spec Rugby Crew also features a side-split hem and reinforced stitching at the elbows, not unlike some traditional rugby polo shirts (minus the somewhat dressier collar).

And the Buck Mason Field-Spec Rugby Crew features a tailored fit with room to move (likely similar to other Buck Mason tees, in my experience). It’s the kind of rugged layer every guy can use, particularly if you want a stylish tee to wear with jeans, yet not one that’s as light as the option you’d reach for in the high heat of summer.

You see? The Buck Mason Field-Spec Rugby Crew is neither too heavy nor too light: It’s just right, and in my experience, that’s what your wardrobe needs now. Go to it, my friends.

To be sure, I’m always on the hunt for one of the best T-shirts for men, something with soft fabric, a timeless fit and ideally, in a visually appealing array of colors. Of course, if you read the blog, you know that Buck Mason makes some of the best men’s T-shirts in the business, and that’s where the Buck Mason Faded Venice Wash Pocket Tee enters your casual wardrobe.

And while it might be seemingly simple, it’s the details (like fit, fabric and that classic soft wash) that really make the difference.

Of its wide array of stylish men’s T-shirts, the Buck Mason Faded Venice Wash Pocket Tee might be one of the more distinctive, seeing as it’s made in America at Buck Mason Knitting Mills using USA-grown cotton. That makes the Buck Mason Faded Venice Wash Pocket Tee pricier than your average T-shirt, to be sure.

But in my experience, that’s a difference you can feel from the second you put on this classic pocket tee, and that’s something worthy of a higher price tag, too. It’s also designed in a vintage fit with straight hem (unlike Buck Mason’s famed curved hem T-shirts).

From there, the slub cotton — plus the single-needle reinforced pocket tee — give this shirt enough depth and style points to be worn on its own all day long. If you want the best, even in more simple pieces, shop with a brand you can trust to deliver on the timeless icons, like a highly wearable pocket T-shirt. Luckily, Buck Mason has you all sorted out.

The rib-knit collar on the Filson Pioneer Pocket T-Shirt should also hold its shape over time, rather than fraying or bunching up.

In fact, it’s the small details like that — along with the reinforced chest pocket — that make the Filson Pioneer Pocket T-Shirt worth the higher price tag (it clocks in at $60). That chest pocket also gives it some visual interest, so you can wear it with everything from Filson blue jeans to a pair of Filson adventure shorts any day of the week (and especially on a laidback summer weekend).

A pocket T-shirt is so much more than just a pocket T-shirt in the very capable hands of Filson, and it’s certainly not a stretch to say that the Filson Pioneer Pocket T-Shirt is going to be the best T-shirt you wear all summer.
