The Thursday Buy: Relwen’s Quilted Flannel Shirt Jacket is The Best Shirt Jacket to Buy Now

When the hour draws nigh to layer up in perfectly rugged style, you need the right pieces at hand, which certainly applies for plenty of the best fall style essentials from the fine purveyors at Huckberry. Of course, if you pass through the pages of this blog on the regular, you’re no stranger to the San Francisco and Austin-based brand’s penchant for stocking and selling adventure-ready gear that pulls its weight in terms of style and utility. And that brings us to today’s standout pick, the Relwen Quilted Flannel Shirt Jacket.

Based in Columbus, Relwen has long been a Huckberry fan favorite, with a focus on old-school classics made modern. That includes everything from the best thermal crewneck shirt to lightweight-yet-warm quilted popovers to durable hybrid blazers and the shirt jacket (or “shacket”) in question today.

Relwen men's shirt jacket review.

The Relwen Quilted Flannel Shirt Jacket is built with an almost ridiculous amount of wearability for brisk fall weather, finished with a cotton flannel twill exterior that’s then lined with polyester twill and insulated with recycled polyester. Still with me on that? Good, because the Relwen Quilted Flannel Shirt Jacket is as hard-wearing as it gets for fall.

It also uses durable spring-snap front-button hardware throughout, which aids in durability and makes it easier to use those buttons in case you’ve added a pair of the best gloves for men to your fall or winter #OOTD. And like other gear picks from Huckberry, the Relwen Quilted Flannel Shirt Jacket doesn’t skimp on style points. These are outfitted with Huckberry-exclusive colorways and contrasting liners, for starters.

It comes in four handsome plaid varieties, each of which would wear well with casually rugged fall style essentials like the best blue jeans for men and the best brown leather boots. All that’s missing is your new favorite henley as a base layer, and you should be all set for whatever fall throws your way. That’s the Huckberry promise, and the Relwen Quilted Flannel Shirt Jacket certainly delivers.

The Thursday Buy: This Wellen Fisherman Sweater is a Rugged Fall Classic

There’s no time quite like the present to take stock of your inventory of the best sweaters for men, right? Crisp fall days aplenty beckon, and with that comes the chance to layer in rugged, sustainable style. Wait… sustainable style?

Yes, it’s possible in the fall months thanks to Wellen, an in-house brand at Huckberry making perfectly casual style essentials with a focus on fabrics and fibers that are good for the environment (and good-looking, to boot).

It’s on fine display here with the Wellen Seawool Fisherman Crew, a rugged fan favorite from Wellen that seems to get better and better with each passing season. It’s part of the ever-stylish lineup of Huckberry men’s sweaters, but it stands out even in a crowded field, all thanks to its effortlessly cool good looks — and the right balance of sustainability, too.

You see, with the Wellen Seawool Fisherman Crew, the fabric really makes all the difference — you see, it’s not just rugged and seriously cool, it’s got that crucial sustainability factor. The Wellen Seawool Fisherman Crew starts out humbly enough, with material woven from recycled plastic bottles and oyster shells. Y

es, that’s right: Your new favorite sweater is crafted from oyster shells (in part), and it manages to retain warmth while offering classically good looks, thanks to that fisherman knit.

The Wellen Seawool Fisherman Crew is also quick-drying and anti-microbial, so you can wear it more frequently in between washes (which also saves water, and in another way, the environment itself!).

It seems the good folks at Huckberry have thought of everything, from sharp style to a range of rich, seasonally friendly colors and of course, a timeless sense of cool. Make your next sweater purchase the Wellen Seawool Fisherman Crew, and reap the benefits all fall ong.

Folks, thanks for joining me as we close out another fine (sweltering) summer weekend.

I’m also digging the look of the Flint and Tinder Summer Stretch Denim, a super-lightweight pair of jeans for those among us who just don’t want to give up the good stuff in the heat. There’s also the Relwen Seersucker Short-Sleeve Shirt, a modern update of a classic that retails for more than 40 percent off at the moment.

Filson Cruiser Jacket review.

Folks, we’ve got a lot of ground to cover in this Friday Read, so let’s hop right to it. Let’s start by talking about one of the best new jackets for men, courtesy of my friends at Filson. It’s a new take on the Filson Rugged Twill Cruiser Jacket, available in a vibrant exclusive color and made with all the bells and whistles you might expect from the legendary heritage brand.

Filson, in fact, has been a brand on my mind lately, as I’ve spent most of this week in lovely Portland, Oregon — while the brand’s home base is Seattle, it seems Filson fits right in with the breezy, rugged climes of PDX.

While out West, I managed to do my fair share of brewery and bar-hopping, visiting acclaimed spots like Gigantic Brewing & fun locations like Lucky Labrador Brewing, plus award-winning restaurants like Higgins, which boasts an extensive beer list and a focus on fine Belgian ales.

Gerber Knives review.

That’s all in addition to an extensive visit to the Gerber Gear knives factory, where I’ll be diving into a story on making the best USA-made knives and everyday carry gear on the market. It’s just part of my many freelance writing pursuits, and on that note, you should certainly stay tuned for that story!

Best polo shirt for men this summer.

If I’ve said it once before, I’ve said it many a time here on the blog: Scouring the market for the best menswear deals can pay off in a major way, be it shopping for one of the best short-sleeve shirts for men or finding a discount on the best men’s polo out there.

Style Pick of the Week: Flint and Tinder 365 Shorts – The Best Men’s Shorts for Summer

Best summer shorts for men.

In my experience, especially in the summer months, it seems you just need workhorse wardrobe pieces that consistently get the job done in terms of casual, effortless style. Of course, a pair of the best men’s shorts certainly qualifies, and that’s where my good friends at Huckberry enter the equation, and that’s part of the reason why I’m keeping today’s post short and sweet. Some things just make sense in matters of men’s style, right? Yes indeed.

The Flint and Tinder 365 Shorts (part of Huckberry’s selection of bestsellers) take the cake as far as the best shorts for men are concerned, using the company’s lightweight yet durable 365 fabric (a blend of cotton and spandex that’s also been garment-dyed).

These shorts check off all the proper boxes in my book: These stylish men’s shorts come in three inseam lengths to suit guys of every height, they’re available in rich and versatile colors to match up with plenty of other summer style essentials, and they boast custom Flint and Tinder hardware, for good measure.

I’m going to wrap up this post here today, since it’s quite clear to me that your next move is simple: Go ahead and get a pair of the best shorts for men over at Huckberry ASAP. You know exactly what to do.

See Now, Buy Now: These Wellen Corduroy Shorts are an Easygoing Summer Style Move

Best men's shorts for summer.

I’m willing to bet you’ve got more than your fair share of stylish summer shorts in your rotation already, right? But what about reconsidering your wardrobe ever so slightly, especially in pursuit of a pair of shorts that swerves from the ordinary?

Yes indeed, while it’s worthwhile to keep the classics well-stocked, like a pair of the best chino shorts for men, there’s something to be said for switching up from time to time. Take the Wellen Corduroy Easy Shorts, which harken back to corduroy shorts of the 1970s, yet in a way that’s tasteful and modern.

If you’ve never tried corduroy shorts, there’s no time like the present — these are also affordably priced via Huckberry at under $100, but that’s far from the only thing they’ve got going for ’em.

The Wellen Corduroy Easy Shorts were dreamed up by the design team at Huckberry, as Wellen is the famed retailer’s approach to breezy, sustainable and surf-inspired menswear. They’re made from 100 percent cotton with that characteristic corduroy texture, and the Wellen Corduroy Easy Shorts have also been garment-dyed for softness right out of the box.

Best corduroy shorts for men.

Two color options — Mushroom and Dark Sage — are also a nice stylistic change of pace in terms of color (pair up these stylish corduroy shorts with everything from a heather grey pocket tee to your favorite henley on breezy days).

And to make things even easier — and more easygoing, at that — the Wellen Corduroy Easy Shorts are sized from XS to XXL, complete with an elastic drawstring waist. When the time comes to get dressed for your next BBQ or summer vacation, opt for something slightly different from the norm via the Wellen Corduroy Easy Shorts — your wardrobe (and wallet) will thank you later.
