Style Pick of the Week: Relwen Windzip Jacket – The Best Casual Fall Jacket for Men

It’s mighty hard to believe we’re only a few days away from the proper start of fall on the calendar, but is there ever really a bad time to snap up one of the best men’s jackets for windy weather? Perhaps that’s got you realizing that you need to upgrade, say, your fall outerwear in a hurry. Relief is in sight in the form of the Relwen Windzip Jacket, and that’s doubly true if you pick up the Huckberry exclusive colorway of this rugged, rough-and-tumble, go-anywhere jacket.

According to Top Trends Guide, it’s a crowded market out there in the race for the best fall jacket for men, but this one might just take the cake if you prefer your outerwear delivered with rugged adventures and top-notch functionality in mind. It’s part of the entire Relwen lineup of military-inspired, exceptionally well-made gear, and that’s saying quite a lot (head here to get my thoughts on the best summer shorts from Relwen if you live in an area prone to hotter weather through September). For the rest of us though, the rugged Relwen Windzip Jacket is going to take the cake for day-to-night casual style.

Score your new go-to fall jacket now

Relwen’s lineup is perfect for the season ahead

The thing with the Relwen Windzip Jacket is that it really is built for just about anything fall throws at you, like much of the brand’s gear, which frequently draws design inspiration from old-school military jackets. This silhouette is certainly every bit as functional as you need for the field, to say the least.

SHOP: The Relwen Windzip Jacket

Huckberry certainly sings the praises of the Relwen Windzip Jacket, noting that it “could be the slickest jacket they’ve ever made” — that’s a pretty high bar to clear, in my book. The water-resistant exterior is certainly nice to have for breezy fall weather, and the fact that it’s made from stretchy nylon and spandex is an added bonus. But it’s the inner workings of the Relwen Windzip Jacket that make for such a fine seasonal jacket. The 60 gram down-alternative filling is complemented by a warming, stand-up collar for when fall days dawn bright and chilly. Think lightweight, but comfortable and not nearly as heavy as your winter parka.

Black oxidized hardware adds a super-clean, slick finish to this rugged jacket, which has the style chops to be worn with everything from some of the best men’s blue jeans and your favorite henley to a classic Oxford shirt and tan chinos for evening patio beers. That you can find all of this gear in the classic Huckberry Bestsellers section is a pretty big advantage. Now, it’s worth noting that scoring the Relwen Windzip Jacket (available in a whopping six colors) doesn’t always come cheap (it retails for $298 at Huckberry). But given that you can wear this jacket on the trail or back in town, on the road or out for beers, it’s a downright steal in that regard. It’s the ideal jacket to wear 24/7 this fall, and that’s just for starters. Try it on for size and see where it’ll take you.

The Thursday Buy: Get this Flint and Tinder Henley Sweatshirt for Early Fall Layering

What’s a guy to do when he wants one of the best layers for early fall, for those times when it’s not quite chilly enough to throw on an insulated jacket, but it’s too cold to rock your favorite T-shirt solo? That’s easy: Turn to a hybrid layer that represents the best of both worlds: Something like the Flint and Tinder Henley Sweatshirt. It’s got plenty going for it, starting with the fact that it hails from the same company that makes the famed Flint and Tinder Waxed Trucker Jacket, as surefire a fall style classic as you’re apt to find these days. Better still, it’s got the warmth of a sweatshirt and the rugged good looks of a henley, to boot. And on top of that, it’s on sale at Huckberry right now for under $64. That’s marked down from $98, so you’re getting quite the nice discount on one of your new favorite sweaters for fall — or is it a henley? You be the judge, but just know that you won’t be able to live without it soon enough.

Get your new favorite fall layer

The best of both worlds, with rugged style in spades

The Flint and Tinder Henley Sweatshirt checks all the right boxes if it’s rugged, casual style you seek. It’s practically made to be thrown on in laidback weekend situations, especially with vinyl spinning and hot coffee in hand. It’s really the construction that makes the Flint and Tinder Henley Sweatshirt stand out handsomely, as with most all things Flint and Tinder. It starts with super-soft, substantial-but-not-too-heavy French Terry cotton fabric, translated into a henley style with that three-button placket.

SHOP: The Flint and Tinder Henley Sweatshirt

You can wear it like a normal henley, sure, but the Flint and Tinder Henley Sweatshirt is made to be worn over a super-soft long-sleeve tee with faded stretch denim for the ultimate in weekend-ready comfort. It also looks good enough to be worn atop, say, a chambray shirt with stretch chinos back at the office on a relaxed fall Friday, and again, that’s the beauty of the versatility you get with the Flint and Tinder Henley Sweatshirt. USA-made construction and tough rubber buttons make this henley sweatshirt a serious keeper, despite the on-sale price.

It’s only available in Washed Navy right now, but that color should prove a natural pairing with everything from burgundy corduroys to tan work pants (no matter how little work you have on your weekend agenda aside from visiting a new brewery). Because it’s made by Flint and Tinder, consider that a bit of another guarantee of quality and long-lasting style. Simply put, the Flint and Tinder Henley Sweatshirt looks darn good, wears well with all of your favorite fall style staples, and keeps on trucking day after day, all season long.

See Now, Buy Now: Prep for Early Fall with Huckberry’s All-Weather Duckboots

Is it ever too early to prep for fall, especially with prepping for fall involves shopping Huckberry bestsellers aplenty? I should certainly think not, and that early fall preparation becomes all the more crucial (and useful) if you happen to be shopping for the best men’s boots for fall (and beyond). You never know when fall weather might strike, or when you might need a new pair of work boots, or rain boots — or better still, work boots and rain boots rolled into one. That leads us to today’s Monday edition of the See Now, Buy Now series, and the Huckberry All-Weather Duckboots. Again, they’re a bestseller at Huckberry for good reason — or rather, plenty of reasons. They’ve been a fan favorite seemingly since they debuted, and they’re back this season in full force. This is very good news for lovers of the best boots for men (guilty as charged there).

Prep for fall the right way

They’re billed as a waterproof hybrid pair of boots, and not only waterproof – 100 percent waterproof. It’s the kind of attention to detail and an attitude committed to going the extra mile for which Huckberry is known. The Huckberry All-Weather Duckboots are made to be worn around the city through inclement weather on morning commutes, but they also come in quite handy when you hit the trail or dash out of town on fall weekend camping trips. And naturally, if you want a rugged, go-anywhere pair of boots for casual days in the park or at the brewery, the Huckberry All-Weather Duckboots are going to come in mighty handy. It only gets better from there.

SHOP: The Huckberry All-Weather Duckboots

The unbelievably rugged Huckberry All-Weather Duckboots blend the best of both worlds when it comes to form and function. Style-wise, you can select from a sleek all-black pair or handsome brown leather without losing any looks at all. The shock-absorbing midsole should prove remarkably comfortable for long days on your feet, and they’re also built with a breathable membrane to keep your feet from overheating. What does all of this functionality mean for you? It means that these are your new favorite boots for fall, easily. The full-grain leather upper meets the rubberized leather rand design in the front without missing a beat (or allowing water to penetrate the boots, for that matter). It’s all finished off nicely with a super-durable and grippy, high-traction Vibram outsole for maximum reliability on slippery surfaces.

They’re the best men’s boots for fall

#OOTD: The Best Way to Wear Your Favorite Denim Jacket This Summer

The dog days of summer can present more than a few hurdles as far as wearing your favorite style essentials is concerned. For instance, what if you’ve been feeling like your daily dressing is getting a bit stale? My advice: Shake things up, add a summer-friendly and unexpected layer, and reap the rewards. Enter today’s #OOTD, featuring the best denim jacket for men on the market. How and why is it the best men’s denim jacket? I’m glad you asked, dear reader. It comes to you from the well-appointed digital shelves at Huckberry, and to get even more specific, it’s made by Flint and Tinder. That means it shares the same DNA as the famous Flint and Tinder Trucker Jacket, yet it’s just done up in a lightweight, summer-ready design these days. Think of this ensemble as another take on how to wear a lightweight jacket for summer, because it can definitely be done.

It’s unlined and made from indigo denim, so it should act more like a pair of light wash jeans (on your top half, that is) than the waxed cotton Flint and Tinder trucker jacket. This is a summer alternative to that same jacket, with all the cool style points you need for outdoor festivals, cool summer evenings and round after round of beers at your favorite brewery. It’ll work especially well with the new menswear essentials you’ll find throughout the rest of today’s #OOTD, including cool-as-can-be high-top sneakers, one of the best men’s leather belts, a covetable watch and much more.
