Head to Bonobos, purveyors of some of the best men’s pants (and best affordable menswear, period), and revel in what I like to call the perfect blend of style and savings from the long-running menswear purveyor.

Best blue jeans for men to buy now.

We talk often on this Brooklyn style blog about the tools and tricks of the trade, about the right gear for the task at hand — clothing you can wear day in and day out, virtually regardless of season.

In my experience, the best jeans for men (although tricky at times to wear in the summer months!) belong in any toolbox (or wardrobe, rather) of menswear must-haves.

Add in denim made with expert attention to detail in terms of fit and fabric, and you’re looking at a near-indispensable offering — especially as far as pairs of the best jeans for men are concerned, my friends at Bonobos take the cake.

And while there’s plenty to sort through online at Bonobos, the famed NYC retailer — which is known for disrupting the way men’s pants fit, along with a series of handy innovations in the shopping experience — delivers a premium experience in both name and execution when it comes to the Bonobos Gramercy Premium Jeans.

Throw in the chance to find your new favorite pair of men’s denim — marked down 20 percent right now as head into fall — and you very well might be looking at a few new upgrades in the figurative jeans department heading into fall.

The Bonobos Gramercy Premium Jeans are available at a discount in three versatile yet more casual colors this season, including the lighter and fall tailgate-ready Midwood Blue shown above.

The Bonobos Gramercy Premium Jeans lean on premium organic cotton with a small amount of stretch, and all the proper hallmarks of some of the best-fitting jeans for men can be found in this particular pair.

That includes expertly crafted fabric, handsome details like contrast stitching and a leather back hip logo patch, and of course the proper fit for which Bonobos is known, my friends.

The Bonobos Gramercy Premium Jeans come in waist sizes up to 46, plus a whopping five fits to suit every body type. Complete with printed pockets — because it’s the details that really make the difference — these go-anywhere jeans are a prime, premium addition to any off-duty wardrobe, at least in my experience.

The Thursday Buy: These Lightweight Bonobos Jeans are Perfect If You Simply Can’t Stop Wearing Denim

Bonobos men's denim review.

Perhaps you, like me, are a big fan of the best jeans for men, an everyman, everyday staple with classic roots that lend an air of rugged, hard-working appeal to plenty of outfits. Be it in summer-friendly light wash designs or timeless dark blue cotton denim fabrication, the best men’s jeans (like the Bonobos Stretch Lightweight Jeans as shown above) are as reliable as it gets, at least in my experience.

But what’s a guy to do when the thermostat climbs to unbearable levels, and when it simply feels too hot for a pair of denim? The answer is to go back to the drawing board, because yes indeed, wearing denim in the summer can certainly be done.

Shop men’s pants and more at Bonobos

Sure, lightweight trousers in various linen and cotton designs abound, as do stretch chinos — but when the occasion calls for something casual, but not as easygoing as a shorts-centric BBQ, again, well… what’s a guy to do?

While there are certainly times it’s not practical to keep rocking denim, a fresh set of the best lightweight jeans — like the Bonobos Stretch Lightweight Jeans, in fact — can come in mighty handy, delivering the everyday style you crave while keeping you cooler in the heat than thick selvedge or traditional dark blue jeans might.

Again, practicality is often the name of the game, but if you’re on the hunt for a stylish pair of jeans you can wear in the summer, then the men’s pants masters at Bonobos seem to have the game figured out.

Denim lovers, myself included, rejoice: The Bonobos Stretch Lightweight Jeans are here to stay, and they’re available in a wide range of sizes and in fits ranging from Tailored to Athletic. These handsome jeans are especially appealing in their Sky Blue Light Wash, a fine example of how lighter color and lighter weight — with plenty of casually cool style points — can go hand in hand.

Better still is the fact that your new favorite light wash jeans feature a blend of 90 percent organic cotton — here’s to sustainability — and plenty of comfortable stretch in the form of 10 percent Elastomultiester. That gives the Bonobos Stretch Lightweight Jeans both structure and shape, all the better for wearing them the rest of summer with everything from a stylish camp collar shirt to a classic pocket tee (both of which you can also find online at Bonobos, of course).

Paired up with refined leather loafers and trusty canvas sneakers, the Bonobos Stretch Lightweight Jeans are a perfect summer solution for the guy who loves his denim (guilty as charged). Cheers to making the most of the season, my friends.

The Sunday Sale: Take 30 Percent Off Sitewide Right Now at Bonobos

Bonobos menswear review 2025.

How do you prefer to curate your rotation of summer style essentials? Do you shop as you go throughout the season, securing picks when and where you need ’em — from swimwear to shirting to summer suiting? Or do you plan far in advance, stocking up ahead of the season and then mixing and matching your favorite selections in one perfect ensemble?

When the calendar calls for everything from coastal getaways to summer weddings to laidback BBQs, it’s perhaps best to do a little bit of both — that’s where my friends at Bonobos make a major difference in my wardrobe, in your wardrobe and in the summer style rotation of casually cool guys everywhere.

Shop summer menswear at Bonobos

And if you’re the type of guy to leap into a menswear sale at the spur of the moment, shopping and planning and saving as you go, then it’s your lucky weekend: Bonobos, purveyors of some of the best pants for men and the best everyday shirting, are offering 30 percent off sitewide (or at least, they were as of the time of this writing!).

You’ve got that right: 30 percent off sitewide, with some exclusions, but with a host of enviable, accessible and versatile men’s style gear up for grabs via the venerable New York City retailer. The selection is wide-ranging and impossibly stylish, from linen shirts and perfectly textured shorts to knit polos, soft-shouldered blazers, expertly cut trousers and even ultra-soft cotton tees.

In my experience, Bonobos makes it fun to get dressed in the warmer months, with performance features adorning menswear that’s the perfect mix of refined and easygoing, including buttondown shirting and stylish shorts aplenty.

Shop on-sale style favorites at Bonobos

There’s also a series of sweater polos you can dress up or dress down, not to mention casual stretch blue jeans (in case you, like me, can’t get enough of your favorite pair of denim), and tailored separates, performance pieces in stretch fabric, and casually cool chinos and five-pocket pants.

You might say the fast-moving Bonobos Sitewide Sale — which, again, is offering 30 percent off most everything — is too good to be true. That’s why I’d act as quickly as possible to score your new favorite style essentials for the days and weeks ahead.

The Sunday Sale: This Bonobos Everyday Shirt is a Discounted Steal for Your Daily Menswear Rotation

If you think of your rotation of men’s style essentials like a toolbox, as we often talk about here on this Brooklyn style blog, then there are certain must-haves that make up the backbone, the sort of pieces you can always use close at hand. No matter the season, and no matter (nearly) any occasion, the best Oxford shirts for men certainly qualify as a must-have, and the Bonobos Everyday Shirt shown above fits the bill handsomely.

Find out more at Bonobos now

Wearable with everything from a blazer and stretch chinos to rolled light wash denim and canvas sneakers, as at home tucked in with linen trousers or untucked alongside trusty jeans, the best men’s Oxford shirts really are a daily staple when done the right way, and the Bonobos Everyday Shirt certainly qualifies.

Able to be taken for a spin at the office or alongside lounge shorts at a weekend BBQ, the details are thoughtfully curated here, not unlike Bonobos’ world-famous, effortlessly cool men’s chinos.

The Bonobos Everyday Shirt boasts soft Oxford cotton finished with 2 percent elastane for helpful stretch, and it doesn’t hurt that one of the best Oxford shirts for guys looks great tucked in or untucked. As with other Bonobos menswear selections, I’ve found that the fit is nicely tailored without being overly tight or overly relaxed — the Bonobos Everyday Shirt comes in four fit options (from Tailored to Athletic), plus three lengths for an expert cut and finish.

And if you look closely, the Bonobos Everyday Shirt nails Oxford shirting details, from the buttondown collar to the chest pocket, plus sleeves that look great buttoned up or rolled up, ready to get to work. A selection of classic solid colors are on sale in a wide range of sizes for nearly 50 percent off, with dozens more color and pattern options on sale for more than 50 percent off.

And since it’s Bonobos we’re talking about here, I’ve found that stellar value is simply the name of the game — alongside easily wearable quality any day of the week. For versatile everyday performance, crisp looks and casually cool style this season, opt for a true modern classic in the Bonobos Everyday Shirt, my friends.

See Now, Buy Now: This Bonobos Linen Shirt is Your Perfect Everyday Summer Buttondown Shirt

It’s something we’ve talked often about here on this men’s style blog when it comes to how to dress for summer for guys: Staying cool in the heat while putting your best foot forward can be a tall order at the best of times. Take it from a guy who tends to run hot, but just know that there are men’s style essentials out there that meet the moment in rather breezy fashion, particularly when it comes to a brand like Bonobos.

The New York City everyday fashion brand changed the game for guys, as we’ve discussed over the years, as far as better-fitting men’s pants are concerned. That’s not all the brand can do, in my experience, as the company has expanded over the years into fine Italian tailoring, buttery-soft tees, expertly crafted knitwear and of course, the Bonobos Everyday Linen Shirt as seen above.

Shop summer style must-haves at Bonobos

Again, men’s shirting isn’t the only thing the brand does well, nor is it only about its lineup of pants, but there’s truly an air of the approachable and the everyday when it comes to Bonobos — the brand is subtly stylish and ready for the season at hand, especially an ultra-breezy linen shirt that presents one of the best ways for guys to look stylish in the heat.

Best linen shirts for men.

The Bonobos Everyday Linen Shirt boasts subtle texture, 100 percent linen construction — about as light as it gets in the world of men’s shirts — and a flattering fit you can customize to your liking. Yes, that’s right: While it doesn’t come in traditional dress shirt measurements (which measure the circumference of your neck and the length of your arm), the handsome Bonobos Everyday Linen Shirt does in fact come in sizes ranging from XS to XXL, plus Slim and Standard options — and three shirt lengths, to boot.

Is this linen shirt the perfect lightweight shirt to wear when you want to look sharp without the heat or the stuffy nature of a traditional dress shirt? In my experience, I’d say yes, my friends. The Bonobos Everyday Linen Shirt is available in two core colors (a crisp White and a versatile Light Blue), but 12 limited-edition colors and patterns give this fashionable men’s linen shirt a nice touch of variety for summer style.

That sense of variety holds especially true when paired with off-white trousers, beige chinos or even olive chino shorts (depending on the style and color of shirting you select, of course). No matter what color or pattern or fit you select, this breezy linen shirt should prove cooling, stylish and ultra-versatile — embrace the high heat of summer with one of the best lightweight shirts for men, my friends.

Best V-neck sweaters for men.

There comes a time in a guy’s life, be it heading to the office or searching for a subtle style upgrade, that simple is sometimes the best course of action. Simple yet versatile, and far from boring is what the Bonobos Merino V-neck Sweater (in its various colors!) brings to the table — and your wardrobe.

In my book, the best V-neck sweaters hit the nail on the head in that regard, with the ability to dress up a chambray shirt, add a crisp look to an Oxford shirt or neatly frame a knit tie and a polished dress shirt. They can stand in underneath a blazer, they’re a wise choice as a mid-layer beneath a traditional field jacket, and an option like the Bonobos Merino V-neck Sweater makes perfect sense, at least in my experience.

Best merino sweaters for men.

After all, merino fabric regulates your temperature and is neither too burly nor too flimsy. And again, that V-neck collar is a wise choice in terms of style points — I’d say every guy can use a rotation of V-neck sweaters in crisp, classic colors. Not a bad option to have in a wardrobe of fall style essentials, right?

Another benefit to picking up the Bonobos Merino V-neck Sweater? It’s a sweater you can safely wash (provided you follow instructions from Bonobos) without worrying about shrinkage — and if you tend to rely on sweaters frequently as a mid-layer or the centerpiece of a business-casual outfit, then that’s a major plus.

Bonobos V-neck Sweater.

Whether you score the Bonobos Merino V-neck Sweater in Charcoal Grey, Maroon or Heather Forest Green, it can bring plenty to the table — witness its wearability with tan chinos or blue jeans, for instance. And if you know where and when to look, you might even be able to score the Bonobos Merino V-neck Sweater at a discount ahead of late fall and early winter. For my money’s worth, this is one of the best sweaters a guy can buy — try one out and let me know your thoughts.
