The Sunday Sale: Save 25 Percent On This Sustainable Summer Shirt from Huckberry

Best short-sleeve shirt for men this summer.

If you’ve been keeping up with the blog on the regular, and keeping track of the incoming high heat of summer, you’re hopefully well aware of the utility of one of the best short-sleeve shirts for men. And of course, style goes hand in hand with that sort of utility.

The best men’s short-sleeve shirts are more easygoing than a long-sleeved Oxford shirt, for instance, and can be worn in more ways than a polo shirt. Oh, and if you’ve got the chance to snag your new favorite shirt on sale? That’s all the better, because striking while the iron is hot never fails — at least, that’s held true when I’ve shopped the Huckberry Sale section.

And without further ado, that’s where the Wellen Easy Cotton Short-Sleeve Shirt is poised to enter your wardrobe. Just in time for summer, it’s 25 percent off, with all the easygoing-yet-versatile style your next #OOTD needs.

Wellen, for the uninitiated, is the sustainable in-house brand at Huckberry, and they make use of eco-friendly materials like 100 percent organic cotton. That’s also the case with your new favorite short-sleeve shirt, but it gets better from there.

Huckberry shirt review.

That’s because the Wellen Easy Cotton Short-Sleeve Shirt is space-dyed (or rather, each shirt is space-dyed), so no two shirts are exactly alike. The process creates a textured effect that makes this stylish shirt look much more expensive than its currently on-sale price tag of $73.

The use of space-dying also means the Wellen Easy Cotton Short-Sleeve Shirt is a distinctive take on the traditional short-sleeve striped shirt — and again, that’s never a bad thing to have close at hand this summer.

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.
