The Thursday Buy: This Buck Mason Pocket Tee is an Elevated Take on a True Classic

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. In my book, especially in the heat of summer, a well-designed, well-made T-shirt is a must for laidback lounging, for Brooklyn brewery outings and backyard grilling, even for layering underneath a soft-shouldered blazer.

So when you (and I) find a stylish T-shirt that rises above the ordinary — heady words, but it’s true — it’s worth going all-in and upgrading your basics drawer. Of course, if you’ve read this Brooklyn style blog over the years, you know that Buck Mason are experts when it comes to making some of the best T-shirts for men. That certainly holds true across its entire lineup, from curved hem pima cotton tees to thick Field-Spec cotton T-shirts, plus stylish men’s henleys aplenty.

The Buck Mason Vintage Jacquard Pocket T-shirt gets the details right in every way possible, using a substantial yet still lightweight midweight cotton that they’ve then rounded out with contrast jacquard stripe stitching.

Best T-shirts for men to buy now.

There are certain steps in the process to building a wardrobe filled with men’s style essentials that can represent a bit of a turning point, at least in my experience. Finding a pair of stylish leather boots or a perfectly fitted pair of jeans is a milestone in any season, for instance.

But when you invest in the best when it comes to your more casual, everyday basics — like finding one of the best men’s T-shirts — well, that’s when you’ve truly rounded a corner heading into a new season. In fact, as we often talk about here on the blog, you’ll find upgrades like that in every category within the friendly confines of Huckberry’s well-stocked digital outlet (to say the very least).

And when you buy less, but buy better, when you invest in your basics and discover a never-before-seen level of quality, reliability and dependability, that’s when your wardrobe of spring style must-haves gets even better.

The Flint and Tinder American Heavyweight Pocket T-shirt starts with a substantial yet soft 8.5oz. cotton construction, which is made all the better by garment-washing and dying for added softness. In a plethora of helpful, stylish colors, your new favorite pocket tee should fit tailored in a flattering manner, rather than baggy or oversized (which seems to be the trend these days among T-shirts). When in doubt, take your normal T-shirt size in any shade of the stylish, versatile Flint and Tinder American Heavyweight Pocket T-shirt.

Fear not, because in any color — and whether worn on its own or beneath a waxed trucker jacket — this American-made T-shirt is the sort of casual, everyday style upgrade that’ll offer a noticeable difference from the jump.

See Now, Buy Now: This Proof Merino T-shirt is A Performance-Ready Take on the Classic Tee

Best T-shirts for men.

Despite the fact that it can be difficult at times to improve upon a classic, that hasn’t stopped the good folks at Huckberry and Huckberry in-house brand Proof from trying. The company puts a performance spin on the best basics for men, including the humble and trusted T-shirt. And as we move slowly but surely from winter into early (early) spring, one of the best T-shirts for men is the sort of piece that can serve you well in matters of style and performance.

Over the years, Proof has also made some of my favorite pairs of pants for work, but today’s focus is all about the Proof 72-Hour Merino T-Shirt. It’s been a staple of the Huckberry and Proof lineup for years (Proof launched in 2018), and it tends to get better with time and with each new edition — that’s a great thing to hear when it comes to the best performance menswear, is it not?

And although it looks simple on the surface, the Proof 72-Hour Merino T-Shirt — available in dozens of color combinations to suit every sense of style and wardrobe — this stylish performance T-shirt for men delivers the goods when it’s all on the line.

In my experience, that means the Proof 72-Hour Merino T-Shirt wears exceptionally well in terms of comfort with tapered joggers and white leather sneakers for a long day of travel — Huckberry put the Proof 72-Hour Merino T-Shirt to the test across a weekend of endurance pursuits, after all.

Plus, the Proof 72-Hour Merino T-Shirt wears easily and subtly beneath a light wash denim trucker jacket and stretch five-pocket pants when you want to go more casually cool, as well. Through it all, the difference is in the details when it comes to your new favorite T-shirt.

The Proof 72-Hour Merino T-Shirt blends merino wool for anti-microbial and moisture-wicking properties, plus nylon for stretch and durability, while its classic fit should work well on a number of different body sizes (I prefer an XL in my rotation of T-shirts from Huckberry). It’s also built with UPF 30+ for sun protection, and the use of nylon allows the Proof 72-Hour Merino T-Shirt to spring back into action — and to its proper size — after being machine washed.

If you want a T-shirt that stands up to hiking, to spring weekend coffee runs, to global travel and to everything in between — all the while looking great and standing up to repeat wear in a wide range of colors — then yes, the Proof 72-Hour Merino T-Shirt is one of the best T-shirts a guy can buy right now, my friends.

Huckberry men's T-shirts.

In my experience, sometimes, you don’t know how valuable some casual men’s basics can be until you’ve gone without them.

I’m not talking about a heavyweight flannel shirt or a thick hoodie — I’m talking about something like one of the best long-sleeve tees to throw on atop your favorite pair of lounge shorts, especially one from our friends at Huckberry.

And yet, this stylish men’s long-sleeve tee sits ready and waiting in your T-shirt drawer or your favorite weekender bag without missing a beat — since, well, you’ve hopefully already added it to your cart in a trio of stylish colors.

With its durable made-in-Detroit construction, its relaxed fit (ideal for layering atop a short-sleeve tee with room to move), and its vintage-style look, it’s a perfectly neutral basic you can even layer beneath a trucker jacket alongside blue jeans.

But for transitional style — especially in coastal settings where you need a warmer layer alongside your go-to shorts — I’d say the Trumbull Vintage Wash Long-Sleeve Tee is a surefire bet as far as laidback summer style goes. Try this one on and report back in the comments if you’re a fan. Cheers and thanks for reading!

But since we’re talking deals today, I’ve got even better news for you.

The Reigning Champ Solotex Mesh T-Shirt also boasts a flattering fit (and it comes in both a Heather Grey and Black) — raglan sleeve construction also delivers mobility and a tailored finish, whether you wear this tee on its own to the gym or layer it underneath a rugged chambray shirt.

Not every style essential needs to be flashy — sometimes, the right move for training, for casual days and for easygoing style is a crisply cut performance T-shirt in a wear-with-anything color… kind of like the Reigning Champ Solotex Mesh T-Shirt. Cheers to versatility (and savings), my friends.

The Thursday Buy: This American Giant Striped Crewneck Is a Breezy Layer for Spring Days & Nights

When I look for dependable layers to ramp up my spring and summer style wardrobe, I tend to reach for pieces that take a classic and improve upon it ever so slightly. And if the piece is a bit of a swerve from the norm — say, a stylish striped long-sleeve T-shirt as opposed to a solid-colored long-sleeve tee — that’s all the better.

Let’s go one step further: When that staple piece is made the old-school way, well, you’ve hit the sweet spot, as the good folks at American Giant often tend to do.

And that goes for casual picks, like the aforementioned American Giant Classic Long-Sleeve Crew, as well as harder-to-craft picks, like blue jeans, canvas work pants or hard-wearing workshirts.
