See Now, Buy Now: This Mack Weldon Poplin Shirt is a Breezy, Go-Anywhere Summer Shirt

Mack Weldon men's shirts.

There are certain style classics that only get better with age, or rather, only get better with modern upgrades — and the timeless short-sleeve shirt is one of them. More casually cool than a long-sleeve buttondown, more well-suited to styling open atop a tee or buttoned up and untucked, the best men’s short-sleeve shirts are a must-have.

The best ones on the market pair up with chino shorts, linen trousers or light wash denim, and you can count the Mack Weldon 24/7 Poplin Short-Sleeve Shirt on that “short” list (pun intended) of the best short-sleeve shirts for men.

The Mack Weldon 24/7 line is meant to go from day to night with ease, from a casual yet crisp office look to a spring and summer rooftop happy hour, or else out on the road through summer vacations aplenty. These fabrics are cool, lightweight, breathable and yet performance-minded, and your new favorite short-sleeve shirt is no slouch.

In fact, in my experience, Mack Weldon delivers excellent quality and comfort, from its boxer briefs to some of the best men’s lounge pants — and now, this polished-yet-easygoing short-sleeve shirt joins that roster in fine fashion.

The key is the use of moisture-wicking COOLMAX fabric technology, plus a wrinkle-resistant design that holds its shape in any one of four versatile colorways. The Crosswind Gingham pattern shown above is my personal favorite, and it’s a more toned-down take on larger, traditional gingham patterns.

The cut of this stylish short-sleeve men’s shirt should prove flattering, and that’s what I’ve found with other Mack Weldon short-sleeve shirts, while subtle details like notched short-sleeve cuffs add a dash of visual appeal.

Shinola Runwell watch for men.

There are certain men’s style picks, especially when it comes to men’s accessories like one of the best watches for men, that can pull double-duty (or rather, triple or quadruple-duty) in any season. While you might reserve a pick like one of the best short-sleeve henleys for spring or summer wear exclusively, the very best men’s watches shine through no matter what, particularly one from Detroit-based Shinola.

That’s especially true if the watch in question happens to be a rugged dive watch. Apt for spring and summer, certified “cool” no matter what — and now, easier than ever to buy via one of your favorite men’s watch brands.

The newest Shinola Runwell takes the brand’s penchant for Mid-century Modern design to the next level, particularly given its highly functional stainless steel build (and crisp, classic dial).

The Shinola Runwell (read more via my Shinola Runwell review!). is already an icon of the brand, a flagship model that represents versatility and the city of Detroit.

It’s not quite as sleek as a traditional dress watch, but it stands out pleasantly all the same whether worn with your favorite suit or a classic pocket tee – and this version of the Shinola Runwell 41mm gets the job done in that regard, too.

And in this case, the dial itself is notable in another way, behind its retro-meets-modern look — it’s done up in a shade of alabaster that contrasts nicely against the handsome blue numerals and the seconds sub-dial at 6’o-clock.

Within the watch itself, the brand used its Argonite 1069 movement, while the three-link stainless steel bracelet delivers watersport-minded performance and a slick finish.

See Now, Buy Now: This Wrinkle-Free Linen Shirt from Huckberry Is Made for Breezy Spring & Summer Days

Best linen shirt for men for spring and summer.

There are certain fabrics that make certain men’s style essentials indispensable as the thermostat climbs, like linen. Its breezy open weave keeps you cool from sunrise to sunset, whether in suiting, trousers or in the stylish linen shirt shown at the top of the page.

And yet, here’s the thing with linen, at least in my experience: The fabric wrinkles easily, which some might appreciate for its easygoing, devil-may-care sense of style. And yet, if you want one of the best linen shirts, but one with a true wrinkle-free approach, well, consider yourself in luck.

The good folks at Huckberry, and Huckberry in-house brand Wills, have come up with the perfect solution — a wrinkle-free linen shirt meant to upgrade all your spring and summer style pursuits, no extra ironing required.

The Wills Wrinkle-Free Linen Shirt (available in both long-sleeve and short-sleeve versions) stands apart as one of the best shirts for men, and the difference is in the details. It’s made from a classic, breathable linen blend that looks great, retains its shape and again, resists wrinkles.

Along with that, it retains the timeless details of your favorite Oxford shirt, including a face-framing buttondown collar and a chest pocket — the Wills Wrinkle-Free Linen Shirt is at once casual and yet polished, the sort of shirt you can wear with your favorite blazer and stretch chinos as readily as you can rock it untucked with expertly faded light wash jeans.

The Wills Wrinkle-Free Linen Shirt — again, in either short-sleeve or long-sleeve designs — also keeps things simple and versatile in terms of style. Take your pick from options like Marled Blue or a Natural colorway, each of which should wear nicely with spring and summer style moves like olive or tan chinos, dark blue jeans, navy seersucker trousers or your go-to summer shorts.

Best of all? The fact that the Wills Wrinkle-Free Linen Shirt should live up to its name, keeping things crisp, casually cool and effortlessly stylish. In my experience, that’s what your spring and summer style #OOTD needs.
