See Now, Buy Now: The Rhodes Footwear Logan Boots are the Best Boots for Men To Lace Up Now

Best lace-up boots for men.

There’s hardly been a better time to take stock of your lineup of the best boots for men this winter… and then add another pair accordingly. That’s because we’re starting to move through the doldrums of winter, when you might have run through your rotation of stylish leather boots and might be in need of a fresh pair to take you through the end of the season and into spring. Well, my friends — not to fear, because as ever, your good friends at Huckberry are here to save the day with a pair of the best men’s boots.

It’s just that simple at times, and that’s what makes the Rhodes Footwear Logan Boots such an essential purchase at this point in the season. They’re a hard-working pair of no-fuss, no-frills boots with classic, sharp style details — and as of this writing, they’re marked down a whopping 50 percent to $125. Even full-price at $250, the Rhodes Footwear Logan Boots are the kind of pair of rugged, versatile leather boots every guy should have on hand.

Best men's lace-up boots.

You see, the Rhodes Footwear Logan Boots hail from Huckberry’s rugged-meets-refined Rhodes brand, which also specializes in some of the best chukka boots for men, not to mention durable Chelsea boots and of course, the hard-working lace-up boots shown here today.

The 5-inch silhouette is a step up from chukka boots, but they’re lightweight enough for everyday wear, as Huckberry sagely notes. And the Rhodes Footwear Logan Boots get plenty more details correct in that regard, including the use of tumbled, waxy leather designed to get better over time. Helpfully, the silhouette of the Rhodes Footwear Logan Boots wears well with everything from, say Huckberry chinos to stylish blue jeans.

And to round things out the dependable Rhodes Footwear Logan Boots are set on a Vibram outsole for grip and a smooth ride underfoot. And again, if you need a reminder: When on sale, the Rhodes Footwear Logan Boots retail for just $125. That’s one heck of a deal on some of the best boots for men you’re apt to find right now.

If you feel your rotation is a bit stale or happens to be missing that crucial final piece (like a stylish lightweight puffer jacket), you’ve come to the right place this weekend.

Relwen Windzip Jacket

Relwen makes gear inspired by old-school military and outdoor silhouettes, which means its pieces are nothing if not classic and functional, yet stylish. The Relwen Windzip Jacket draws design inspiration from throwback outdoor jackets, the kind your father might have worn on a family camping trip, yet with plenty of modern elements thrown in for good measure.

Crucially, this stylish puffer jacket uses down-alternative insulation for warmth in chilly conditions, and the utility of the Relwen Windzip Jacket only gets better from there.

Helpfully, the Relwen Windzip Jacket features a nylon and spandex exterior for abrasion resistance, yet it’s also water-resistant when the going gets tough. The stand-up collar delivers added protection on breezy days, while the black hardware is a sleek and durable touch. For good measure, a large chest pocket provides useful EDC space. And to round things out quite handsomely, you can find the Relwen Windzip Jacket in four highly wearable colors.

The Friday Read: The Huckberry Winter Sale, Adidas Sport Headphones & The Most Affordable Sunglasses

Huckberry Winter Sale 2023

My friends, let’s dive right on in to another momentous edition of the Friday Read. I say momentous because, well, it’s Super Bowl Weekend, followed by Valentine’s Day. And better still around these parts, it’s the start of New York Fashion Week (always a hectic yet exciting time). Here’s something you can enjoy even if you’re not in New York City, though. That’d be the Huckberry Annual Winter Sale, an ideal time to get some of the very best winter menswear for up to 40 percent off.

Take heed: The Huckberry Annual Winter Sale only runs until February 12th, so you’d best act quickly to stock up on rugged, classic gear in equal measure. How about it, ehh? And if you’re more partial to sporting pursuits, not to worry: I’m going to spotlight new Adidas active headphones momentarily.

Part tailored jacket, part sweater, all versatility.

Beyond that, you can certainly follow me on Instagram for the latest #NYFW happenings, as I’ll have a dispatch on the most wearable (yes, truly wearable!) looks coming later this month for the one and only Fatherly. In the meantime, stock up on your new favorite trucker jacket or pair of boots from the Huckberry Annual Winter Sale, and let’s get into the rest of your weekend reading and shopping.

Best sport headphones for men.
  • Through my freelance writing pursuits, I get the chance to test out all kinds of seriously cool gear, including some of the best Bluetooth headphones on the market. For my own walking and hiking around Brooklyn and the borough’s Prospect Park, I’ve been testing out the crystal-clear Adidas FWD-02 Sport Headphones, a streamlined pair of in-ear headphones made for the wearer that’s always on the go. The Adidas FWD-02 Sport Headphones are a useful upgrade for training sessions, but they’re compact and easily wearable enough to support daily use. Snag a pair before your next gym morning or late winter road trip.
  • I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Winter is no excuse to skimp on stylish shades, especially on those rare days when sunlight does stream through crisp white winter clouds. And for my money’s worth, and yours, there’s a way to upgrade your everyday carry with some of the best men’s sunglasses… all the while saving a few bucks in the process. My friends, I give you my guide to the best under-$100 sunglasses over at Maxim.
  • If you gave Dry January an earnest shot this year and are still feeling “sober-curious” about going booze-free, here’s something you might find useful: Over at SPY, I gave the boozy hops a break (if only briefly) and wrote about some of the best non-alcoholic beers on the market. Again, Dry January might have come and gone, but you just might want to make some room in your beer fridge for some new, non-boozy additions.

Fully fashioned crewneck sweater to keep you warm against the harshest winter climates.

Still need to catch up with the latest happenings here on the blog this week? Yesterday, I wrote about one of the most rugged winter jackets to buy now, the classic Filson Tin Cloth Cruiser Jacket. Here’s the full scoop as you power through Friday. We’ll see you for tomorrow’s Style Pick of the Week, and our Sunday Sale as scheduled. In the meantime, enjoy those cold beers and chicken wings on Super Bowl Sunday. Cheers, my friends!

I’ll go ahead and remind you again to shop the Huckberry Sale section to find (at least today) your new favorite winter puffer jacket.

You’ll find said winter jacket via Wellen, an in-house brand at Huckberry that’s all about sustainable, stylish production and surf-inspired styles, from outerwear to breezy overshirts and yes, the Wellen Big Wave Puffer Jacket.

Oh, and before we go any further: The Wellen Big Wave Puffer Jacket is marked down to $137 from $228, good for 40 percent off one of the best winter jackets for men.

Think of the Wellen Big Wave Puffer Jacket like a retro ski jacket, but all the better given the modern technology that goes into it. The outer shell and interior lining hit the right notes in terms of sustainability (they’re both made from recycled nylon), while the recycled polyester insulation comes from plastic water bottles.

For good measure, the Wellen Big Wave Puffer Jacket features both a snap front and zipper closure, plus elastic cuffs for a snug fit and winter-ready weather protection. And it’s worth noting that, true to form, the Wellen Big Wave Puffer Jacket features an eye-catching wave pattern for a touch of coastal style.

The Friday Read: My New Favorite Watch, Pedro Pascal’s Trucker Jacket & Tropical Getaway Gear

Best vintage-style watch for men.

Folks, thanks for joining me for the latest Friday Read, a perfect way to roll on into your weekend (if I do say so myself). I’m coming off my birthday weekend (as you saw if you follow me on Instagram!) and I’ve been back at it this week with plenty of freelance writing pursuits.

So: Let’s start off this weekend by taking stock of, say, your watch collection. I’m frequently on the lookout for stylish men’s watches that are durable, rugged and versatile, be it something like the Shinola Bronze Monster Automatic or my go-to watch of choice as of late from Dan Henry Vintage Watches.

Best rugged dive watch for men.

The company virtually offers a historic stroll through the watch world, looking at classic men’s watches from the late 1930s through to the 1970s, then putting a modern twist on them. This leads to a nice mix of rugged but dressy details, dependable designs and some seriously cool strap and dial combinations, like my watch of choice: The Dan Henry 1975 Skin Diver. It features a 39mm retro-style case, a handsome black dial and a contrasting brown rubber strap.

Satchel and Page

In short, it’s one of the best men’s watches to wear on cold winter nights with a shawl cardigan and flannel shirt, since it’s casually rugged and seriously cool. So, that’s the timepiece I’ll be wearing this weekend as I make my way on an upstate trip (again, follow me on Instagram to keep up!). For now, here’s the rest of your Friday Read. Scroll on accordingly, my friends.

  • Perhaps you, like much of the rest of the country, have been enthralled by the HBO zombie apocalypse drama “The Last of Us,” starring none other than Pedro Pascal. And by now, I’d wager you’ve also read a thing or two about the show, including some insight into Pedro Pascal’s “The Last of Us” trucker jacket. After all, fighting off zombies is hard work, and naturally, our protagonist turned toward the immortal Flint and Tinder Waxed Trucker Jacket. As you know if you read the blog, it’s a Huckberry classic, and if you want to get that very same look, snag yourself a fresh one now.

  • By now, you’re probably getting just a bit sick of the frigid cold, right? I’ve got a solution for you: While I can’t plan out your next tropical getaway, I can indeed help you figure out what to pack for your next vacation. Keep it breezy, colorful and light — I wrote about the best style essentials for a tropical getaway over at Men’s Journal. Time to start planning and packing, folks.
  • Since I’m hitting the road this weekend, I’ve been thinking about the best travel pants this season (and beyond). Accordingly, you should check out Wednesday’s blog post on the best pants for travel from Bonobos — here’s my full take. Cheers and good luck out there!

Satchel and Page

That should tidily wrap up your guide to weekend must-haves, be it a new packing list for a breezy vacation or the chance to shop Pedro Pascal’s “The Last of Us” trucker jacket. In the meantime, stay stylish, look for tomorrow’s Style Pick of the Week and we’ll see you out there!

The rugged Eddie Bauer x Huckberry Skyliner Jacket is the best of all worlds, with durability and tough style to spare in spades.

Best Chelsea boots for men.

Knowing that you’ve got the right gear for the job, for any occasion, is one of the most reassuring parts of building a menswear wardrobe, right? For instance: Curating a careful selection of the best men’s boots for all situations, from inclement weather to days at the office and nights on the town.

It’s a difficult balance to strike, but when you find a pair of the best men’s Chelsea boots to tackle multiple style situations seamlessly (say that five times fast), it’s in your best interest to hop to it and shop accordingly. Such is the case with the Rhodes Footwear Jackson Chelsea Boots from my good friends at Huckberry, the sort of stylish men’s boots you’ll find yourself wearing time and again this winter.

Best men's boots for winter.

The best men’s Chelsea boots are an all-season favorite for plentiful reasons, from the easy-on, easy-off versatility to the clean, sleek, no-laces look and the fact that the style is both on-trend, yet eternally classic (thank The Beatles for that). The Rhodes Footwear Jackson Chelsea Boots strike a similar balance, with a slimmed-down silhouette that should rest comfortably beneath dark blue jeans, slim chinos or the best corduroy pants for men. It’s what’s inside the Rhodes Footwear Jackson Chelsea Boots that really counts though, and in winter weather, it all comes down to the right sole for the job.

In this case, the job is navigating slick city streets, and while the Rhodes Footwear Jackson Chelsea Boots aren’t as souped up as your favorite snow boots, the sturdy lug sole (made by the good folks at Vibram) delivers optimal grip. And lest you worry about the fact that the Rhodes Footwear Jackson Chelsea Boots are made from suede, rest assured that the waxed suede on these handsome Chelsea boots is water-resistant

Plus, a leather lining provides a comfortable feel on your feet, while the entire design is crisp enough to wear with one of the best winter blazers or versatile enough to team with a rugged flannel shirt. When reliable winter footwear is the name of the game, get the Rhodes Footwear Jackson Chelsea Boots on your feet ASAP.

Best winter boots for men.

If reliable performance is high on your radar this winter — and it very well should be — then you should shop a retailer you trust, one of the best online menswear stores for guys. Let’s get a bit more specific, though: The best winter boots are a downright essential (surely, you don’t need me to tell you that!), and Huckberry has a winning pair of the best boots for men on its hands (and eventually on your feet) right now.

The boots in question are the All-Weather Overland Boots, a revamped and overbuilt edition of the already wildly popular and incredibly effective Huckberry All-Weather Duck Boots. Crucially, the All-Weather Overland Boots share much of that same rugged, performance-minded DNA, with a few added touches that take them from simply good to some of the best winter boots for men. Let’s step in a touch further, shall we?

Best men's winter boots.

Helpfully, the All-Weather Overland Boots feature the same specs from the ground up, like a shock-absorbing midsole and a cushioned insole for nice rebound and movement over treacherous, snowy terrain. The same Vibram XS Trek outsole is also in the mix, delivering extreme traction akin to your favorite boots (yet with a more lightweight, hybrid design).

The All-Weather Overland Boots are, of course, 100 percent waterproof, and this particular version of some of the best men’s snow boots also boasts touches more commonly found on hiking boots, like CORDURA canvas panels. The All-Weather Overland Boots also boast D-ring speed lacing (again another hiking boot design detail!), plus a padded interior collar finished with suede on the outside.

Two stylish colorways are available, but the very best part might be the fact that the All-Weather Overland Boots retail for under $170. Looks like your new favorite winter boots are well within reach, yes?

  • It’s been talked about on the blog over these past few weeks, but I’d urge you to strike while the iron’s hot: The Filson Winter Sale just served up some new Filson discounts, and those deals are available until January 17th. If I were you, I’d move quickly to shop and save on rugged winter gear from the lauded Pacific Northwest heritage outfitter.
  • I’ll leave you with one more recommendation this weekend. If it’s durable winter style you seek, then it’s the on-trend yet classic Flint and Tinder Rancher Jacket you need in your wardrobe.

The Thursday Buy: The Flint and Tinder Rancher Jacket is the Best New Winter Jacket to Shop Today

Best waxed jacket for men.

Just when you thought you had your winter wardrobe sorted out, leave it to Huckberry to enter the fold with one of the best new winter jackets on the market. And as you might expect, it’s a rugged, durable, dependable piece, the sort that it seems only the good folks at Huckberry and of course, Flint and Tinder can dream up. Believe me when I say it’s got plenty going for it, starting with the on-trend yet classic Western-style design, but one impressive feature of the Flint and Tinder Rancher Jacket.

Shop Billy Reid Men's & Women's Apparel

For starters, the Flint and Tinder Rancher Jacket hits those design cues that seem to be so popular nowadays — if the hit series “Yellowstone” is any indication, stylish guys (like yourself!) want to live that lifestyle and dress accordingly. Consider the Flint and Tinder Rancher Jacket but one way to get some hard-wearing style in your own life, with the specs to match.

Like the legendary Flint and Tinder Flannel-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket, the Flint and Tinder Rancher Jacket is also, crucially, lined in flannel — all the better for some serious winter warmth.

Best Western jacket for men.

The Flint and Tinder Rancher Jacket is cut longer than that trucker jacket, giving it a bit more of a workwear or ranch-minded feel (although both jackets are assuredly tough and built to last). For good measure, this handsome and timeless jacket is cut, sewn and finished in the U.S. of A (Los Angeles, to be exact), and is built from heavyweight 10 oz. waxed canvas, meaning the Flint and Tinder Rancher Jacket will get better and mold to your body the more you wear it.

Shop New Arrivals from Billy Reid

Somewhat incredibly, the Flint and Tinder Rancher Jacket is also quilted and stuffed with insulation, making it thicker and warmer than even the toasty Flint and Tinder Flannel-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket. Chest flap pockets deliver critical EDC storage space, of course, while side hip pockets help warm your hands. To sum it all up: The Flint and Tinder Rancher Jacket has a bit of everything going for it, from trendy Western style to reliable performance and classic, crisp details. Make it your new favorite winter jacket ASAP.
