Men: Don’t Forget These Spring Essentials

Spring is the szn of freshening things up and starting new. This means it’s time to review your wardrobe and store away your heavy coats, sweaters, and darker colors for essential clothes that’re on trend and suitable for spring weather.

DON’T PACK AWAY YOUR JEANS JUST YET

We’re in a fashion period where there are SO many jean styles to choose from—there is no one style that’s “in.” Relaxed, wide, straight legs are a spring (year-round) stable that can be dressed along with many styles. Raw blue jeans, however, are particularly on trend this season.

BREAK OUT THE CHECKERS: PLAID

Embrace your inner lumberjack by stocking up on plenty of plaid this spring. And you’re not limited to the classic black and red checkered look—expand your palette with lighter color schemes more suitable for spring. Stay warm with a Big T Patchwork Plaid Jacket, which tastefully blends a unique patchwork design of varying colors, from tan to orange and blue plaid. Complete the look by throwing on your favorite knits underneath or reach for your staple white tee. Keep things casual and cool by making a Resort Print Camp Collar Shirt your statement piece, which looks great with a denim jacket draped over.

BUNDLE UP WITH CARDIGANS

Cozy is on trend, and that includes cardigans. Wear a fuzzy cardigan like this True Fuzzy Cardigan in brown completely buttoned up and sport a basic white tee or tank underneath for a classy spring outfit. Neutral, collared shirts also go nicely under this style of knit. Have a graphic tee you’d like to show off? Pull off the open cardigan look to put your personality on display.

GET PREPPY WITH POLO SHIRTS

Let polo shirts like the Buddha Logo Polo Shirt be your go-to if you're torn between casual and preppy. They’re diverse, can be dressed up or down, and have various fabrics and textures. For date night (or any formal occasion), pair your polo with chinos or trousers and tie the look together with boat shoes. For shorts, you can’t go wrong with khakis. Make it more chill by reaching for your favorite pair of jeans. Choose a pair of jeans with a slimmer cut to balance out your silhouette, as the relaxed nature of most polo shirts may result in an overly bulky look.

SETTLE FOR COMFORT WITH BAGGY SWEATS

Expect to see more slouchy, baggy sweatpants around the gym this year, notably activewear styles like the Super T Fleece Sweat Pant with a drawstring waist—perfect for running errands, lounging around the house, or sweating it out during an intense workout sesh. Own the groutfit by matching grey sweats with the Arched Logo Hoodie.

GO SPRING (WIND) BREAKERS

Every man needs a windbreaker in his closet during the spring to hold up against the elements. Choose a style that’ll layer nicely with any knit or sweater, like this Packable Lightweight Hooded Windbreaker.
