It’s a heady time around these parts, what with the best Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals rolling into town fast and furious, and a busy few days of imbibing and dining on the horizon.

But it’s always a wise time to take stock of your menswear wardrobe heading into the hustle and bustle of the holidays: A well-stocked wardrobe, as we often talk about via this Brooklyn style blog, always has options aplenty, especially as far as shirting is concerned.

While stretch dress shirts often suffice at the office, and the classic Oxford shirt reliably teams with a shawl cardigan or a lightweight blazer in equal measure, what about if you want a subtle switch-up from the norm? A piece with some swagger and some stylish appeal, but with less of a rugged touch than a flannel shirt or a thick-knit shirt jacket? The same can be said for swapping in a crisply cut polo, like the one shown above from today’s spotlight brand — scroll ahead for mor, my friends.

Yes indeed, those are some tricky parameters to clear, but I’d wager you’ll want to peruse the effortlessly cool, dashing men’s shirting and apparel on offer at Austin-based Criquet Shirts.

You very well might recall them over the years from past Criquet reviews on this blog, but it’s worth checking in with the high-flying, old-school-meets-modern brand as they look to reinvent how guys dress, one eye-catching buttondown and stylish polo shirt at a time.

The brand was founded back in 2010 with an emphasis on making the classics modern: Think of the ultra-flattering polo shirts worn by the likes of Arnold Palmer, for instance, then retool that shirt for the modern day with an even better fit and fabric — and tons of stylish, easygoing swagger.

In the years since, Criquet Shirts has expanded into Oxford shirting, lightweight flannel shirts, Western shirting and corduroy shirts with a pearl-snap button twist.

These pieces have a touch of Austin-inspired flair, flattering collars, a fit that’s neither too tight nor too loose, and the sort of leisurely ease that makes a shirt from Criquet Shirts as wearable with chino shorts as it is with expertly faded denim or chino pants.

Consider this your cue to start shopping this brand’s stellar shirts: In my experience, Criquet men’s shirts feature durable but buttery-soft fabric, helpful details like face-framing collar stays, a rich array of color and pattern options, and more diversity in the lineup than you can shake a clothes hanger at. Seriously, the array of stylish Criquet men’s shirts is nearly overwhelming, but tastefully curated all the while.

We’re talking options aplenty: Western shirts! Corduroy shirt jackets! Stretch knit buttondowns! Effortlessly cool long-sleeve polos! Cashmere pocket tees! I’ve tried the eye-catching, ultra-soft Corduroy Pearl Snap shown throughout this post, with more Criquet shirting reviews on the horizon.

Think of it this way: If you can envision yourself wearing it at the 19th hole, while whippng up an Old Fashioned or while flipping burgers at the grill — or sidling up to the bar for a cold one, no less — then there’s a good chance the best shirts for men from Criquet Shirts are up to the task in matters of form and function.
