Best long-sleeve tees for men.

When breezy, brisk fall weather starts to hit, particularly on an autumnal weekend (we’ll get there soon enough!), the best menswear essentials are about keeping things simple at times.

The apple orchard, the pumpkin patch, the tailgate and the backyard bonfire — all seasonal staples, and all situations where a base layer or mid-layer like the properly crafted, rugged long-sleeve tee can work wonders when you don’t want to overthink your fall style essentials.

In fact, not overthinking things is precisely what the good folks at Huckberry tend to do every season, autumn very much included (and yes, the brand makes just the right gear to get out there in the weeks and months ahead).

Whether worn beneath a waxed trucker jacket, styled underneath a flannel shirt jacket or merely worn on its own as you take in the foliage with coffee on the front porch, it’s a wonder what a well-made long-sleeve tee can do — and that certainly holds true with the Flint and Tinder American Heavyweight Long-Sleeve Tee, with vintage style inspiration and proper construction in spades.

With inspiration tracing its way out to the American West, there’s a spirit of adventure that’s behind even the basics from the famed Huckberry brand-within-a-brand, which you very well might know from the iconic Flint and Tinder Waxed Trucker Jacket (also as worthy a seasonal pickup as any).

In fact, the long-sleeve shirt in question might be the perfect base layer alongside such a tough, durable jacket, with colors like Gold providing an eye-catching seasonal pop, at least in my experience. Huckberry notes this shirt, with its vintage inspiration, takes its cues from old-school tees and is “made from a robust, heavyweight cotton,” which is garment-dyed and washed for a lived-in look that’s also going to feel mighty comfortable out of the box.

Let’s go one step further — the Flint and Tinder Flannel-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket in all its glory belongs on the proverbial Mount Rushmore of modern menswear, and it’s now back and better than ever in a new colorway.

Crafted in a new shade of Natural (as well as an eye-catching, limited-edition Sea Kelp Camo), the best-selling, fan-favorite waxed trucker jacket gets a fresh look with the same tried-and-true specs that have made it the best-selling Huckberry product of all-time. How about that, ehh?

For Huckberry, that means the new colorway of the Flint and Tinder Flannel-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket still boasts the same precise attention to detail and rugged appeal as other classic options from the Americana retailer. This particular option is made in Los Angeles for the ultimate in quality craftsmanship, while the re-waxable 100% cotton-based Martexin 10.10 oz. Army Duck Canvas is tough as nails and made to be broken in year after year.

This revamped take on the Flint and Tinder Flannel-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket also features a 14-wale corduroy collar for stylish contrast and protection from the elements, while its F&T custom metal buttons get a durable antique finish. As with other editions of the tried-and-true waxed trucker jacket, the retailer uses a custom blanket stripe flannel lining through the body and sleeves for warmth and added structure.

Best flannel shirts for men.

It’s as fitting a time as any to look both forwards and backwards at your menswear rotation and your lineup of soon-to-be-critical early fall gear, I’d say — and it’s even more fitting that this opportunity falls on #ThrowbackThursday, as you might call it.

Huckbery already takes plenty of style inspiration from some of the most, well, stylish periods in American history specifically, like that of the Mid-Century Modern era, when the country was shaped by dapper men who rolled up their sleeves and got to work. That gives us the Flint and Tinder Architect Shirt, and now, it gives us a new, cold-weather-approved version via the Flint and Tinder Flannel Architect Shirt — just in time for fall fashion moves aplenty, my friends.

If the Oxford shirt is your daily workhorse most of the year — accented by the a chambray shirt or a stretch dress shirt worn with a soft-shouldered blazer, for instance — then the Architect Shirt is cut from the same mold (if not the same cloth), with the same amount of easygoing yet polished versatility in mind. Is this handsome shirt the kind that Frank Lloyd Wright might have worn?

We might not ever know, but it’s worth trying to find out, as the Flint and Tinder Flannel Architect Shirt boasts classic lightweight flannel construction, flattering details like a chest pocket for a dash of visual interest, and enough color and pattern options to make it a true daily staple in your wardrobe.

Cut from a midweight yet comfortable 6 oz 100% cotton flannel, this shirt comes in a whopping nine colors and patterns fit for the modern man (that’d be yourself!), while it also boasts reinforced elbow patch construction that gives it the ability to layer up and stand up to just about anything (at least in the office or at the whiskey bar).

You’ve assuredly got options aplenty in matters of style when it comes to the Flint and Tinder Flannel Architect Shirt, but whether worn with dark blue jeans or with expertly crafted stretch chinos, there’s a sense of both retro and modern versatility you’re not going to want to miss — Huckberry approves, so do I, and so should you, my friends. ‘Tis the season for the best fall menswear!

The latest and greatest from Huckberry fan favorite Flint and Tinder, with its rugged Americana leanings, kicks things off in expert fall style, as the Flint and Tinder Washed Herringbone Shirt serves up classic appeal and versatile good looks for laidback style scenarios aplenty. Somewhere in between the company’s sturdy waxed trucker jackets and lightweight tees and polos for summer is this transitional layer, featuring garment-dyed 100 percent cotton herringbone construction and a lived-in look and feel.

More rugged than an Oxford shirt or a dress shirt, yet not as burly as a heavyweight flannel shirt, the Flint and Tinder Washed Herringbone Shirt should prove reliable piece when worn on its own, sleeves rolled up alongside Flint and Tinder 365 Pants, or else layered up over a henley with canvas work pants.

The Flint and Tinder Washed Herringbone Shirt also boasts two button-front chest pockets for added versatility and everyday carry storage capacity, while triangle side-seam gussets ramp up the performance-focused workwear nature of this durable men’s denim shirt.

The texture of the Flint and Tinder Washed Herringbone Shirt is a major selling point as far as old school-inspired style is concerned, and when it comes to this vintage-tinged workshirt, Huckberry perhaps put it best:”Originally built for rail and factory workers, workshirts have transitioned from a job-site essential to a hardwearing staple of the modern guy’s wardrobe,”
and as it turns out, the famed retailer is utterly correct.

Look towards fall style the right way with your new favorite denim overshirt from a retailer that knows a thing or two about making ’em, my friends.

Today’s winning style score comes from a fresh collaboration that’s practically a match made in heaven as far as the best boots for men are concerned: Huckberry’s own Flint and Tinder teams up with revered Maine bootmakers Easymoc on some of the coolest, most durable and rugged moc toe boots for men, and you — my friend — are the winner if you score a limited-edition pair right now.

And while the good looks rival the most classic, durable moc toe boots in matters of silhouette, the material used within for the soon-to-be legendary Flint and Tinder x Easymoc Camp Scout Boots is as legendary as the product itself.

Reliable and frankly iconic cloth from an authentic vintage U.S. Army pup tent appears alongside the famously durable crazy horse leather leather upper in a distinctive quarter paneling finish, making for a pair of hard-wearing men’s boots unlike any other on the market — Huckberry, it would seem, has absolutely done it again when it comes to making some of the best gear for men.

Accents like durable brass eyelets, plentiful contrast and reinforced stitching, and a Vibram camp boot outsole come together in fine form to make this pair one of the coolest pairs of boots for men on the market at the moment — with the specs and attention to detail proving that notion quite handily indeed, my friends.

For good measure, the foam-topped leather insole will even mold to your foot over time, adding more power to the idea that the Flint and Tinder x Easymoc Camp Scout Boots are a pair of boots to score for life.

As Huckberry notes of the absurdly cool collaboration, “it’s no metaphor when we say we’re walking in a piece of U.S. history,” as details like USA-made leather lacing and stitches drive home the right blend of heritage and rugged good looks when it comes to the Flint and Tinder x Easymoc Camp Scout Boots. Just ahead of the best time of the year to wear boots, find your new favorite pair for a limited time at Huckberry.
