The Thursday Buy: Upgrade Your Summer Footwear with Some of the Best Boat Shoes from Huckberry

There are certain men’s style essentials you come to rely on over the years, classic men’s style picks you can be sure look great in practically any situation. That’s especially true as you build your wardrobe from the ground up with some of the best casual shoes for men, which could account for everything from the best chukka boots to stylish men’s sneakers to a pair of the best boat shoes for men.

All are certified style classics, all belong in a well-rounded wardrobe, and your new favorite pair of boat shoes enters your wardrobe today via the good folks at Huckberry (where else, am I right??).

Shop Huckberry’s full lineup of rugged, stylish footwear

And the pair in question comes from Rhodes Footwear, a brand dreamed up by the Huckberry team with a penchant for making a wide range of shoes, from the best Chelsea boots for spring to, of course, the Rhodes Footwear Tahoe Boat Shoes that are the first order of business today. These appealingly rugged boat shoes fall right in line with the Rhodes Footwear ethos — there’s classic style, there’s durability and there are more than a few touches that elevate them above typical boat shoes (in this case, quite literally).

When it comes to the Rhodes Footwear Tahoe Boat Shoes, they’re perfect for bridging the gap between spring and summer, when you still want shoes with some substance and dependability (note the sturdy Montagna outsole). These handsome boat shoes (as Huckberry says) are designed with a contrast-stitch moc toe upper and three-eyelet construction, giving them a more souped-up feel than other spring and summer slip-ons.

And of course, they’re also leather-lined for added comfort, and for good measure, the Rhodes Footwear Tahoe Boat Shoes are crafted with care in footwear mecca Leon, Mexico. You could call them boat shoes you can count on, you can call them a spring and summer must-have, or you could simply dub them your next footwear purchase. Either way, the Rhodes Footwear Tahoe Boat Shoes won’t let you down.

See Now, Buy Now: Layer Up for Spring with This Rugged Chore Coat from Huckberry

The best style moves in these increasingly casual post-pandemic days are the ones that — at least in the opinion of your Brooklyn style writer — do more than one thing well. Take one of the best chore coats for men, for instance. It’s got workwear roots and can be worn for, well, real live work, but it can also serve as an effortlessly cool jacket for plenty of spring pursuits (and it’s one of the best men’s jackets for spring for those very reasons).

And the Wills Wrinkle Free Chore Coat, from the good folks at Huckberry, knocks it out of the park when it comes to versatile, dependable spring style. It’s got what Huckberry calls “handsome, laidback” style, which is precisely what you should be looking to add to your wardrobe this season — and it’s got the right sense of easygoing cool, plus a classic chore coat design, that makes it fit for work or play in equal measure.

Shop the season’s best jackets at Huckberry

How exactly does Huckberry do it? It’s simple, really: Start with outstanding fabric, the kind that’s both breezy and yet performance-minded. It’s the wrinkle-free linen-poly blend that does the trick nicely when it comes to the Wills Wrinkle Free Chore Coat, and that fabric will actually get softer the more you wear and wash it. And make no mistake, you’re going to want to wear the Wills Wrinkle Free Chore Coat plenty this season.

It’s got the kind of timeless workwear style you expect in your chore coats, including a top-entry chest pocket and two top and side-entry hip pockets for your everyday carry essentials. The fold-over collar and tailored button front on the Wills Wrinkle Free Chore Coat gives it the kind of polish that means you can wear it as a blazer replacement (yes, seriously) atop everything from one of your favorite T-shirts to a crisp Oxford shirt.

And the Wills Wrinkle Free Chore Coat doesn’t skimp on style points, either: It comes in crisp colors like Fossil and Smoke, either of which fits right in with breezy spring trends. Crucially, the fabric on this handsome, rugged chore coat also resists wrinkles, so you can pack it up for a spring road trip — or wear it as a useful travel jacket — without missing a beat. Style it with expertly faded denim and your favorite chukka boots, or else go a touch more polished with a pair of the best men’s chino pants — either way, it looks to me like you’ve found your new favorite spring jacket.

Style Pick of the Week: Flint and Tinder 365 Chino Pants – Spring and Summer’s Perfect Everyday Pant

Don’t step into a new season — or step out for your next casual or tailored pursuit — without the proper attire, my friends. It’s easier to knock it out of the park than you might think, whether you’re heading to the office, to a wedding or to a casual day around town, cold beer in hand. The solution lies in some tried-and-true classics, as in a pair of the best men’s chino pants.

Of course, it goes without saying that you should round out the rest of your ensemble with something as equally hard-wearing, stylish and classic, like one of the best Oxford shirts or even your favorite denim jacket, but I’ll leave that to you: Let’s talk chino pants right now, shall we?

Shop stylish chino pants for men right now

And like clockwork, the good folks at Huckberry have precisely the pair you need. They hail from the always well-stocked Huckberry New Arrivals section, and the Flint and Tinder 365 Chino Pants do something that’s nearly impossible: They take a tried-and-true classic (the Flint and Tinder 365 Pants) and improve upon them in a way that’s classy, versatile and effortlessly sharp.

Of course, the Flint and Tinder 365 Pants are as dependable as can be in their own right, with a five-pocket build to rival your favorite denim and yet, the crisp cut of a chino pant. But, here’s the catch: The Flint and Tinder 365 Pants aren’t quite classic chinos, although they’re darn close (plus, highly affordable and stylish). The key here with this new pant? The streamlined design of chinos, with front slant pockets and what Huckberry calls a “clean, tailored look.”

The Flint and Tinder 365 Chino Pants only get better from there, thanks to a performance stretch cotton blend that delivers mobility and lightweight comfort, even in the heat. The best chino pants, after all, should help you stay polished no matter what, and again, Flint and Tinder certainly knows how to deliver on that front.

The fabric itself is also garment-dyed for softness, while the Flint and Tinder 365 Chino Pants come in four crisp colors, including Earth (my personal favorite). And for good measure, you’ll find your new favorite chino pants in both Slim and Straight cuts. You’ve just taken the guesswork of what to wear to your next spring or summer shindig, my friends.

The Wellen Maker’s Chore Coat lives up to that versatile billing quite handsomely, carrying on Wellen’s penchant for sustainable production along the way (it’s made from 98 percent organic cotton, with helpful 2 percent spandex for added stretch).

Crucially, the Wellen Maker’s Chore Coat boasts truly functional chore coat touches, like a button flap chest pocket for your everyday carry, plus large patch pockets at the waist — again, all the better to store your everyday carry essentials. There’s also a left chest patch pocket, and those pockets are adorned with Wellen’s distinctive wave stitching. Yes indeed, the Wellen Maker’s Chore Coat also delivers in matters of style, whether you pick up the dark olive Tobala Green color or the handsome Natural version.

As Huckberry shows, this durable chore coat can be worn in the shop or garage, or out on a coastal vacation with ease — that’s what the best chore coats should be able to do in this day and age, and the Wellen Maker’s Chore Coat checks off all the proper boxes — and then some — for a very agreeable 40 percent off. Get to it, my friends.

Style Pick of the Week: Relwen Shawl Collar Sweater – Spring’s Best Laidback Sweater

If you’re anything like me, perhaps you enjoy swerving ever-so-slightly from the norm, even when it comes to normally more laidback style scenarios. After all, spring style essentials are always the right way to go, and it’s all the better if you switch things up a bit when you least expect. Take the lineup at Huckberry, for instance. It’s full of distinct changes of pace — for instance, when you might be tempted to reach for a more casual athletic logo sweatshirt, reach instead for the Relwen Shawl Collar Sweater. The change is simple, really: Any time you might wear a crewneck sweatshirt, swap that out for one of the best men’s sweatshirts while retaining that air of casually rugged appeal.

The Relwen Shawl Collar Sweater is a Huckberry Bestseller for a reason, and part of an entire lineup of classically inspired yet modern gear from Ohio-based Relwen. The brand takes basics like the chino or the quarter-zip sweater, reinterprets them with modern fabric, then injects them with an air of cool, unique style.

Shop the rest of Huckberry’s Bestsellers now

Case in point, of course, is the Relwen Shawl Collar Sweater. The French Terry fabric blend is soft and pliable, and plenty ready to layer over other spring style essentials, be it a rugged chambray shirt or your favorite henley. The shawl collar frames the face, while the unique button placket on the Relwen Shawl Collar Sweater is a nice style swerve from, again, the more traditional crewneck sweatshirt.

Best of all, you can wear the Relwen Shawl Collar Sweater in all the same ways as you’d wear that crewneck sweatshirt, and then some: Try it at the office with stretch chinos or on the weekends with tapered joggers. Just make sure you pick one up in good time for the rest of the spring season. Happy shopping, folks.
