Every so often, you tend to strike it rich in the menswear world. Take this weekend’s Huckberry Summer Sale, of course. The best menswear from Huckberry already offers lots to love, be it rugged durability, refinement or versatility in your wardrobe, or a touch of all three. And when that menswear arrives on sale for a limited time, well, you’ve got to strike while the iron is hot.
That’s certainly the case with the Wills Wrinkle Free Linen Short Sleeve Shirt, which just might be one of the best shirts for men on the market. It’s up for grabs for a stellar deal right now (25 percent off, based on your selected color and size), so it’s no surprise to this Brooklyn menswear writer that it’s selling mighty fast.
It’s the kind of go-anywhere shirt you can rock with just about anything, be it more easygoing picks like stretch chino shorts and canvas sneakers, or else with dark blue jeans or even tailored linen trousers at the office. It’s also made from a comfortable, pleasantly durable linen-poly blend for more structure and shape, and the fit should prove tailored but not overly tight (nor baggy).
But because it’s part of the Huckberry Summer Sale, it’s flying off digital shelves quickly. With that being said, I’m going to wrap up today’s post early and leave you to shop the Huckberry Summer Sale. Good luck out there, my friends.
At times, getting a great deal can mean even more than that: Like when you score some savings on one of the best shirts for men, for instance, and if you can do that while getting your new favorite shirt from one of your favorite online retailers.
In this case, I’m talking about Huckberry, an online shop that, in my considerable experience, never cuts corners or fails to come through with some of the most rugged, best menswear on the market.
Hopefully, you’re aware of that fact, but hey, a reminder is always a good thing when building out a wardrobe of summer style essentials, right? And I’ve got some news for you: Huckberry certainly hasn’t let you down with one of its latest deals, part of a plethora of the best menswear deals over in the Huckberry Sale section.
Your next round of style savings arrives courtesy of one of the best everyday shirts for men, the Flint and Tinder Double Gauze Shirt. While Huckberry and the F&T crew do a standout job producing rugged gear like the famed Flint and Tinder Waxed Trucker Jacket, this stylish men’s shirt is a bit more ready for the office, for happy hour and even for a low-key date night — get you a shirt that can do it all, folks.
Let’s look at those savings right off the bat: You’re saving at least 20 percent on your new go-to shirt, which is made with breezy two-layer double-gauze cotton for softness, breathability and polished style (even in the heat). The Flint and Tinder Double Gauze Shirt wears like an easygoing Oxford shirt, with double-button chest pockets for EDC storage and a more rugged touch.
It’s also outfitted with reinforced elbow patches, but to me, this is a stylish work shirt you can readily wear on a more laidback day at the office. Plus, it’s garment-dyed for additional softness, and it comes in a range of colors (like a crisp Blue Check — my personal favorite) or a stylish Natural colorway.
And since some colorways of the Flint and Tinder Double Gauze Shirt drop as low as $76 (normally $128!), it’s certainly a highly versatile shirt worth buying now — and wearing the rest of summer into fall. Happy shopping and we’ll See You Out There, folks.
It’s lofty praise to label a piece of modern menswear a “classic” when there aren’t all that many pieces truly deserving of that honor, but in my experience, the Outerknown Blanket Shirt is more than worthy of that praise.
It sprang from the mind of surfing legend and famed menswear designer John Moore and has been a mainstay of the Outerknown line for years now, with the sort of soft, supple design made to be worn on its own, and the rugged appeal to make it one of the best shirt jackets on the market, too.
You’ll find the Outerknown Blanket Shirt in a classically rich array of colors and patterns, with useful details like front-button chest pockets for your everyday carry, and it only gets better from there.
And the even better news is that yes, through the Outerknown Summer Sale, you can save more than 30 percent on the timeless, rugged-yet-versatile Outerknown Blanket Shirt. In fact, it’s hopefully not the first time you’re hearing about the Outerknown Semi-Annual Sale, since it’s the best spot at the moment to get stellar savings on the most sustainable menswear on the market.
You see, from using less water-focused denim production practices to a heavy emphasis on materials like organic cotton and hemp, Outerknown is, at least in my experience, changing the game when it comes to the best eco-friendly menswear, and that’s something we can all believe in (and shop).
But for now, perhaps consider starting off your journey to a sustainable wardrobe by saving a few bucks on the dependable fan favorite that is the Outerknown Blanket Shirt.
In my opinion, you should be able to turn towards your favorite menswear brands for just about everything you need in your wardrobe. That can even be the case with the best vintage menswear — bear with me on this one, folks, because the juice is worth the squeeze.
The “best vintage menswear,” in fact, is precisely where Buck Mason, one of my favorite online menswear brands, enters the equation. The brand excels at crafting rugged men’s style essentials — and more refined pieces, like one of the best summer suits — all with its vision focused squarely on both the past and present. That’s why it’s so fun (in my humble opinion!) to see what Buck Mason is up to right now.
They just dropped the Buck Mason Vintage Collection, an expertly sourced and curated offering of tried-and-true menswear classics, from denim shirting to retro frames, a rare Rolex vintage watch, books, home goods and more.
It’s like a peek into the entire world of Buck Mason, a close look at what makes the brand tick — oh, and you can actually buy covetable pieces from the Buck Mason Vintage Collection, too. How sweet is that, right?
These pieces are seriously cool and one-of-a-kind, like an impossibly neat 1940s US Navy Chambray Shirt (available for the lofty price of $495, but in excellent shape all the same). The offering only gets better from there, and it’s quite hard to believe.
This vintage capsule from Buck Mason improbably contains a 1978 Rolex GMT-Master “Pepsi” timepiece, with a two-tone bezel. It’s a true rarity, and it’s astonishing to see it up for grabs at Buck Mason. But, that’s what the Buck Mason Vintage Collection delivers. See anything you like?
Be sure to hop on this watch while it’s still around, because like any piece of the best vintage menswear, it won’t stick around forever. Pick up one of Buck Mason’s best-selling T-shirts while you’re at it, and you’ve got a match made in #menswear heaven. Happy shopping, my friends.
A great deal — no, one of the best menswear deals — can be hard to find, unless you know where to look. That’s where I come into play with The Style Guide and with our weekly Tuesday Steal, of course. Now, there’s really never a bad day to shop a brand like Outerknown, of course.
For starters, the brand produces some of the most sustainable menswear on the market while also hitting the nail on the head in terms of style and functionality.
Things are about to get even better if you’re a fan of, say, the Outerknown Blanket Shirt or one of the brand’s stylish men’s polos. That’s because the Outerknown Summer Sale just kicked into high gear, and it’s got plenty of savings worthy of your hard-earned time and money right now.
In fact, the sale started yesterday, and it’s already giving you the chance to save as much as 60 percent on past-season essentials from surfing legend Kelly Slater’s famed brand. There’s a host of winners up for grabs at the Outerknown Summer Sale, from the classic Outerknown Plaid Blanket Shirt — supple enough to wear on its own, rugged enough to wear as a shirt jacket — to the Outerknown Groovy Pocket Tee.
Now if I had to guess, I’d say that inventory from the Outerknown Summer Sale won’t stick around for very long, especially with discounts as much as 60 percent off. Do yourself a favor, get right to it and shop in sustainable fashion right now, my friends.
This time of summer, in my experience, is often a chance to unplug, to go off-trail, to get back home to Michigan (or your own hometown!), all the while wearing rugged menswear essentials. What you’re wearing on vacation or throughout your summer pursuits is critical, correct?
And it seems that, at least from my time wearing the brand, Filson delivers an ideal mix of rugged style and performance in expert fashion (as you know from reading the blog over the years, of course).
Be it more casual picks like one of the best pocket T-shirts from Filson, or else a classic weekend getaway bag, there’s hardly an outdoor, warm-weather excursion that can’t be made better by some gear from the iconic Pacific Northwest heritage outfitter.
And for pursuits both more laidback (like a backyard BBQ) or more involved (like a hike across the dunes to the beach), the Filson Rustic Short-Sleeve Camp Shirt should prove mighty handy, durable and stylish. It’s built with a classic camp shirt design, which features a boxy fit — with room to move or to layer over a T-shirt — and the defining feature of this retro short-sleeve shirt is the lay-flat, V-shaped collar (just like your dad or grandfather used to wear).
The Filson Rustic Short-Sleeve Camp Shirt is made from a midweight cotton, so it’s not quite a performance shirt for hiking, but it should still prove comfortable enough on cool nights or breezy days. It’s also got more than a few touches in terms of style.
It’s available in a sharp Deep Sea Indigo pattern or a colorful natural pattern, each of which would also pair up nicely with some of the best men’s shorts from Filson.
Last but not least, you know you can count on quality from Filson, and there’s even better news: The Filson Rustic Short-Sleeve Camp Shirt is currently 30 percent off for a limited time, with plenty of sizes available. Do yourself a favor and upgrade your casual summer style from a trusted brand right now, folks.
If it seems like I’ve been talking an awful lot about Billy Reid menswear in the past few days, that’s because, well, I have. It’s not for nothing, though: Right now, the Billy Reid Summer Event runs through this coming Thursday, so there’s quite literally never been a better time to score a few new favorite summer style essentials at standout deals (try 30 percent off, my friends).
The key here is the use of yarn-dyed linen in a custom plaid colorway for a washed-out, pleasantly breezy summer feel, and the details only get better from there.
The Billy Reid Tuscumbia Short-Sleeve Shirt features a standard fit for an easygoing feel, while the collar forgoes a more casual buttondown design in favor of a straight collar. The impact is a breezy shirt that even looks polished enough to wear underneath your favorite summer blazer, sans ties.
The best menswear brands on the market, the menswear brands I love the most, tend to be the ones that take the ordinary and elevate it ever-so-slightly. Take Taylor Stitch. I’ve long been a fan of this San Francisco-based brand, as you know if you read the blog on the regular — perhaps you feel the same way? And in fact, hopefully you already know the brand’s focus on making some of the best shirts for men, right?
I sure hope so, because this modern icon has a way of taking the expected and making it, well, unexpected. That leads us to today’s Tuesday Steal, which shines the spotlight on one of the best men’s shirts for summer — a shirt that’s available for 30 percent off via the effortlessly cool Taylor Stitch Last Call section.
Now, don’t get me wrong: It can be mighty hard to find the proper deal on a versatile, go-anywhere shirt, one that you can wear for adventures aplenty and casual days working from home. Yet, that’s the hole that the Taylor Stitch Point Shirt fills in your wardrobe. It’s modeled after throwback military field shirts, and helpfully made from a super-breezy yet durable blend of organic cotton and linen.
The Taylor Stitch Point Shirt also boasts the brand’s customary chest sizing, all the better for a flattering fit (consider sizing up if you want a slightly looser fit). But the Taylor Stitch Point Shirt is about so much more than the right fit (and that standout discount of 30 percent off).
It features the brand’s classic, face-framing California collar, but it’s the two front flap chest pockets that should prove especially useful for handling your everyday carry essentials in the field. And of course, the Taylor Stitch Point Shirt comes in two seriously cool colors: A rich Indigo Slub — which just so happens to be my personal favorite — and a field-ready Rain Drop Camo.
Between the soft-yet-reliable fabric, the sub-$100 price on sale, and the durable performance features, you ultimately can’t go wrong with the Taylor Stitch Point Shirt — at least, not in my book.
Is the search for summer menswear essentials ever really complete? At times and in my experience, it feels like it’s a never-ending quest, or at least a fun journey, to find picks that surprise and delight in terms of your wardrobe.
Everyone’s summer menswear favorites tend to look a bit different based on where you live and how your day-to-day shakes out, but it’s the tried-and-true picks that keep us all going, right? I’ve found that whether I’m working from home and wearing a breezy pocket tee, or heading to a rooftop cocktail event, the good folks at Taylor Stitch always tend to come through in the clutch.
Of course, you might prize pieces that are a touch more classic or straightforward, like one of the best men’s polos or a Taylor Stitch Oxford shirt. And yet, your wardrobe should leave a little bit of room for interpretation: That’s where one of the best camp collar shirts is ready to shake up your menswear rotation just ever-so-slightly.
That shirt, my friends, is part of the always-engaging Taylor Stitch New Arrivals section, and the Taylor Stitch Conrad Shirt offers up retro and modern style in spades. It’s modeled off camp collar shirts of decades gone by, and you’ll notice that the collar lays flat in a more casual fashion, akin to something you might have seen Don Draper wear.
Crucially, the Taylor Stitch Conrad Shirt harnesses that same sense of casually cool style (without some of Don’s more questionable habits), and it’s every bit as well-designed as you’ve come to expect from Taylor Stitch. In my experience with the brand, texture and fabric is really where the San Francisco brand stands out, and the Taylor Stitch Conrad Shirt is no exception.
It’s available in two dusty, pleasingly summer-friendly shades, Orchid and Sand Jacquard, with 100 percent organic cotton washed fabric that should feel remarkably soft on the skin. So, why a camp collar shirt? Well, the Taylor Stitch Conrad Shirt is a touch more easygoing even when compared to a polo (thanks to the lay-flat collar and straight-hem, standard fit), so it’s a nice change of pace on breezy summer evenings.
The shorter hem also makes it easier to wear untucked, although I’ve found that most Taylor Stitch shirts can be worn untucked without missing a beat (including the brand’s stylish Oxford shirts) Even still, the Taylor Stitch Conrad Shirt is another much-needed, laidback style swerve on the hottest summer days.
Plus, the medium weight means you can wear the Taylor Stitch Conrad Shirt on your own, or you can style it as I would — unbuttoned over a heather grey T-shirt. Effortlessly cool style is the name of the game with the throwback-inspired camp collar shirt, and the Taylor Stitch Conrad Shirt is a worthy example to add to your wardrobe ASAP.
Some deals in the world of shopping for men’s style essentials can sometimes feel a little too good to be true, right? That’s often the case over at Bespoke Post, which regularly stocks and sells some of the coolest menswear (and home goods, and bar cart essentials, and outdoor gear!), often at outstanding prices.
Check out the Bespoke Post Sale section to be routinely blown away, for instance — and that’s where you’ll find your new favorite buttondown shirt. That’d be the Line of Trade Arrrow Shirt, billed as an effortlessly versatile three-season, cotton-blend shirt — one that just so happens to be 49 percent off today, in fact.
Line of Trade is one of the many brands dreamed up by Bespoke Post, bridging the gap between casual and classic style, and that shines through with the Line of Trade Arrrow Shirt. It’s made from 100 percent cotton and finished off with resin buttons, giving it a bit of a shirt jacket-type feel on cool days.
The brushed End on End fabric should also feel plenty soft to the touch, whether worn unbuttoned over your favorite T-shirt or worn buttoned up alongside stylish stretch chinos at the office. Helpfully, the Line of Trade Arrrow Shirt also boasts a casual chest pocket, which gives it more common ground with one of the best Oxford shirts, for instance.
And at its current sale price, it clocks in at under $40 — that makes the Line of Trade Arrrow Shirt a downright steal for plenty of stylish, versatile everyday wear. Don’t waste another second thinking about it — just add it to your cart ASAP.
