See Now, Buy Now: This Wellen Performance Tee is the Most Versatile T-shirt For Men in Your Wardrobe

Wellen men's T-shirt review.

A guy’s wardrobe needs the basics, the daily men’s style essentials that can do the heavy lifting — and at the same time, it also needs some versatile pieces that take the notion of basics a step further, like one of the best T-shirts for men. We’re not talking just any ole cotton T-shirt around these parts today, though, and that’s all thanks to the good folks at Huckberry.

We’re talking all about the new Wellen Sol Performance T-Shirt, a wardrobe workhorse adept at everything from trail runs to coffee shop strolls, beach vacations and much more.

The key to its versatility, and the fact that it performs like, well, a true performance T-shirt while looking like (as Huckberry says) “your favorite cotton T-shirt”? That’d be the use of CoolSoft Fabric, which pulls sweat away from your skin and dries four times faster than cotton.

Yes, you read that correctly: The Wellen Sol Performance T-Shirt is a heck of a performance T-shirt, packed with a laundry list of versatile, durable features. Those include an athletic fit that hugs the arms, plus a side seam gusset for added mobility, and all the while, this stylish yet performance-minded T-shirt even keeps your valuables safe via a hidden pocket designed to hold your keys, ID or workout gels.

No matter which way you choose to wear the Wellen Sol Performance T-Shirt — with workout shorts and some of the best men’s running sneakers, or alongside chino shorts and canvas sneakers for a more laidback, off-duty look — it’s guaranteed to stand up to anything and look positively great while doing so. As Huckberry says: We’ll see you out there, folks.

The Sunday Sale: It’s the Last Day to Shop the Huckberry Annual Summer Sale — Stock Up As Soon as Possible

Huckberry Summer Sale 2024.

In the world of menswear essentials, there’s nothing quite like what you might call a “measure twice, cut once” approach. That could mean carefully scouring the market for pieces you love, pieces you need, pieces that can expand your wardrobe of menswear essentials the right way.

And then, when the time comes, carefully moving forward with your purchase — again, measure twice, cut once. That’s perhaps no more true than with the Huckberry Annual Summer Sale — bear with me here, folks. We talked earlier in the week about some of the best menswear deals on the market, with savings on everything from the best sneakers for men to the best summer shorts, sunglasses, everyday carry essentials and more.

And now, well, the time has come to make a move, to get down to the “cutting” part — the time has come to add to your cart, make a purchase or two and get a move on, because it’s the last day to score some savings via the Huckberry Annual Summer Sale. See, doesn’t that make perfect sense?

The savings are excellent at the moment (up to 40 percent off, as we talked about earlier this week) and again, there’s a bit of everything up for grabs, from utility shorts to backpacks to hiking sneakers via the jam-packed Huckberry Sale section. The clock really is ticking, so take careful note of what your wardrobe needs, then act accordingly on the last day of the action-packed Huckberry Annual Summer Sale.

Style Pick of the Week: Relwen Tropical Trap Blazer – A Surefire Way to Beat the Heat

There’s one thing that should be top of mind as you fill out your wardrobe of summer style essentials in the dog days of summer: Beating the heat in style. That goes for tailored affairs as well as casual style situations, and that’s where one of the best lightweight blazers for men (today’s Style Pick, as luck would have it) comes in mighty handy.

In my experience, there’s hardly a better place to shop for fashionable, functional solutions to casually cool style than Huckberry, and that holds true (to say the least) with the Relwen Tropical Trap Blazer.

It hails from the acclaimed Ohio brand’s rotation of classically inspired pieces, the kind that — like your new favorite blazer — are inspired by old-school looks, then updated with modern fabric. When it comes to the Relwen Tropical Trap Blazer, that inspiration comes from sporting coats worn out in the field, hence useful details like a button throat latch, patch pockets and a four-button design.

Best lightweight blazer for men.

The Relwen Tropical Trap Blazer, even more crucially, boasts some of the most lightweight fabric offered by the brand (in this case, that’s a blend of 80 percent linen and 20 percent cotton). It’s also lined in cotton for added structure, although this lightweight blazer should still prove plenty comfortable and wearable in the heat.

That goes for wearing it atop your favorite T-shirt, dressing it down with one of the best henleys for men or dressing it up with a classic Oxford shirt and stylish stretch chinos (don’t forget Huckberry’s leather loafers) for a crisp, cool look that can go from the office to happy hour without missing a beat.

Particularly in a classic navy color, the Relwen Tropical Trap Blazer can do just about anything style-wise, and that’s versatility that I can certainly appreciate.

Oh, and last but very certainly not least: The Relwen Tropical Trap Blazer is available now on sale (it’s $253, marked down from $298) via the Huckberry Annual Summer Sale. Strike while the iron is hot to score one of the best men’s lightweight blazers, my friends.

When I think about it, there are really a host of men’s style essentials and gear picks that you need to get right before you actually need them in your wardrobe.

Walden Eyewear review.

There’s much to love about these sunglasses, starting with the iconic and classic-meets-modern silhouette, one that plays off the timeless aviator shape and refreshes it as only Huckberry (one of the best online retailers for men) can do. The even better news? These stylish men’s sunglasses are available now via the Huckberry Annual Summer Sale, delivering some serious savings in the process (they now retail for under $100).

Introduced last year, the Walden Eyewear line at Huckberry takes crisp, classically designed silhouettes of the past, like the circular or oval sunglass shape, and updates them with modern materials and improved durability.

The Walden Eyewear Pilot Sunglasses fit the bill very nicely in that regard, with “hyper-wearable” details like a tapered temple design, a strong frame shape and a handsome selection of bio-acetate colors upgraded with recycled steel hardware for durability.

Given the time of year — the high heat of summer — and the chance to save big on a menswear must-have, I’d say there’s really no time like the present to score yourself some savings on the Walden Eyewear Pilot Sunglasses. Cheers, my friends.

Yes indeed, the Walden Eyewear Pilot Sunglasses get the job done handily, whether paired with your favorite polo and chino shorts or one of the best short-sleeve henleys and trusty light wash jeans.

The Thursday Buy: These Astorflex Loafers are a Refined Summer Style Move

At a certain point in the summer, it’s a wise bet to switch up your trusty seasonal style essentials ever so slightly in favor of a change of pace. For instance, instead of lacing up yet another pair of stylish men’s dress shoes, perhaps consider reaching for the refined loafer, or rather, a pair of the best loafers for men. particularly a pair stocked and sold by your friends at Huckberry.

That’s the name of the game in today’s Thursday Buy, where the Astorflex Patnoflex Travel Loafers stake their claim as a versatile, comfortable, elegant and yet rogue-ish addition to your footwear rotation (and your rotation of the best summer style essentials, for that matter).

Astorflex men's loafers review.

Cut in a more sleek manner than a penny loafer and boasting the streamlined appeal of a traditional pair of dress shoes, your new favorite pair of loafers hail from the family-owned factory confines of Astorflex, a brand that’s part of a strong array of Huckberry Exclusives — offerings you can only find through your favorite retailer, of course.

Perhaps you recognize Astorflex for making some of the very best chukka boots for men, but that’s only the tip of the iceberg. And when it comes to the Astorflex Patnoflex Travel Loafers, they carry on that same lineage of comfort and quality in spades. They boast a soft leather upper, available in rich earth tones that match nicely with everything from cream-colored linen trousers to light wash jeans.

The Astorflex Patnoflex Travel Loafers are unlined for easy-on, easy-off comfort and a lightweight look and feel — this also makes them quite useful as you pack up to travel to a summer wedding or seasonal getaway.

The Astorflex Patnoflex Travel Loafers also feature a strong rubber heel for grip and support, the outsole itself is rubber — chalk up another one in terms of comfort and long-lasting wearability. For a change of pace this season (and a stylish change of pace is an understatement), the Astorflex Patnoflex Travel Loafers deliver versatility, variety and yes, comfort. Sounds like your new go-to pair of summer dress shoes have arrived.

As the mercury rises ever higher, in my experience, it’s crucial to seek out styles that kill two birds with one stone in the heat. That means summer style essentials that fit neatly in the intersection of both great looks and standout performance, and the newest short-sleeve shirt from Huckberry’s Wellen line of sustainable menswear seems to take the cake, at least in my book.

The Wellen Airweave Performance Shirt is a sort of jack-of-all trades, the exact kind of piece I’m on the hunt for as I search for ways to stay stylish in the heat. It’s made with naturally stretchy, moisture-wicking and quick-drying fabric, not unlike one of the best workout shirts, yet it’s cut with the style points and versatility of one of the best short-sleeve shirts for men. Again, it’s the best of both worlds via Huckberry and Wellen.

Through it all, the Wellen Airweave Performance Shirt delivers major style in a classic silhouette, with a tailored fit and a buttondown front, plus a handy chest pocket. Your new favorite short-sleeve shirt is the summer shirt you know and love, just with upgraded fabric (a big change indeed) and an array of vivid color and pattern options via the good folks at Wellen.

The Wellen Airweave Performance Shirt comes in a range of solids like Sage and a pleasing light blue option, as well as seasonally friendly floral prints — and since it’s coming from Wellen, you can trust it’s well-crafted and worth the price tag ($88, to be exact). Beating the heat can feel like a tall task at times, but with the Wellen Airweave Performance Shirt, it’s certainly attainable, at least in my book.

See Now, Buy Now: The Sperry Authentic Original Boat Shoes Are a Must-Have Summer Essential

There are some men’s style classics that are so prevalent, so widely seen, it can be tough to recognize them for what they are — a must-have for your own wardrobe, in addition to being a much-loved favorite, for instance.

In my experience, that’s what the Sperry Authentic Original Boat Shoes represent, especially in my own wardrobe: A tried-and-true summer essential that’s stood the test of time, one that’s as versatile as can be and as wearable now as it was decades ago. Add in the fact that your new favorite boat shoes are now sold by Huckberry, and you’ve got a certified style winner on your hands.

What makes the Sperry Authentic Original Boat Shoes a prep staple as well as an easygoing style move nearly any day of the week (at least in off-duty situations)? It could be the premium handsewn leather upper and classic moc toe construction, or it could be handsome touches like rawhide laces for a dash of throwback style.

Or perhaps it’s the wearability of the Sperry Authentic Original Boat Shoes — they team as easily with rolled light wash jeans and a camp collar shirt as they do with your favorite polo and chino shorts.

Best boat shoes for men.

Plus, the Sperry Authentic Original Boat Shoes feature an EVA midsole for comfort and rebound, plus a non-marking outsole for the right blend of traction and long-lasting wearability. Rich leather options abound when shopping for these stylish boat shoes at Huckberry, and the two-eyelet lacing system is casually cool while delivering a snug, customizable fit.

Better still is the fact that the Sperry Authentic Original Boat Shoes retail for a very agreeable $110, giving you the chance to snag more than one pair if you so choose. For the right mix of classic style, great looks and laidback wearability, reach for the Sperry Authentic Original Boat Shoes — they’ll get the job done, and then some.

The Thursday Buy: This Relwen Polo is a Modern Summer Classic for Any Occasion

Best summer polo for men.

There are times, in my experience, when it’s ideal, and even preferred, to look for an updated take on a classic. For instance, a fresh take on one of the best men’s polo shirts, already a seasonal style essential.

And yet, how could the trusty, preppy, stylish polo get even better? The answer is an easy one: When it’s made by the good folks at Relwen, a personal favorite brand of mine and a tried-and-true retailer as sold by Huckberry.

The Ohio company has a healthy appreciation for menswear staples, be it some of the best chinos for men, a sturdy T-shirt or the fresh-as-can-be Relwen Jersey Stripe Polo. It’s a new take on the style you know and love, with a spin that only Huckberry and Relwen can put on it.

Cotton jersey fabric makes the difference, while the crisp, stylish striped design (one of three variations available) gives this handsome polo a dash of all-time good looks. Better still is the fact that the Relwen Jersey Stripe Polo, your new favorite polo, is inspired by heritage designs and boasts an extended, dressy-yet-versatile placket — think of it like an updated version of the classic golf polo worn by Arnold Palmer, for instance.

Relwen menswear review.

Helpfully, this refined-yet-ever-so-slightly-rugged polo features smart details like a chest patch pocket for your sunglasses, not to mention durable horizontal buttonholes for long-lasting quality. The Relwen Jersey Stripe Polo is also garment-washed for added softness, while the fit should prove tailored and yet flattering — at least, that’s the case in my personal experience with Relwen polos at Huckberry.

A fresh take on the classics can be hard to come by, but when you stumble across one, it’s worth considering. And the next time you want a smart, sharp upgrade to a favorite you know and love, consider snagging one of the best polos for men from Relwen and Huckberry — it’s a wardrobe upgrade you won’t soon forget.

The Tuesday Steal: Save Big On this Performance T-Shirt from Reigning Champ & Huckberry

Best T-shirt for men.

Every guy needs a solid handle on truly classic summer style essentials, the sort of pieces that are the cornerstone of a casual wardrobe. And yes, this even includes one of the best black T-shirts for men, an indispensable style move on the road, at home and in between.

As simple as it might seem, the right black T-shirt can work with just about anything in your wardrobe when you want neutral, casual style, and my friends at Huckberry and Reigning Champ have cracked the code in that regard.

In matters of style, for instance, that versatility works as well with olive chino shorts as it does light wash jeans, but in the case of the Reigning Champ Solotex Mesh T-Shirt, it’s geared more towards performance. And beyond that, this T-shirt can be had for quite the nice deal right now — it’s normally priced close to $100, quite the splurge for a T-shirt, but you’ll find that the Reigning Champ Solotex Mesh T-Shirt is up for grabs for about 25 percent off right now.

The difference is in the details, with stretchy, moisture-wicking performance fabric — and yet, this flattering T-shirt doesn’t look all that much like a typical workout tee, which helps with its styling potential, at least in my experience.

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.
