After a long winter always comes spring and it’s just around the corner!
Longer days, more sun and warmer temperatures can’t come soon enough and what makes it even more exciting is getting our closets ready!
Spring fashion is always more exciting with its bright colours, lighter fabrics and creative combinations. But there are also some essentials that every man needs to check off their list too.
Here are 10 men’s spring fashion essentials
Rugby Shirts
According to Grailed, rugby shirts have been a cornerstone of preppy fashion for decades, and this spring season their colourful, flattering stripes are everywhere.
The main reason for this shirt’s longevity is attributed to the never ending 90s style nostalgia combined with undeniable comfort.
Field and bomber jackets
Field jackets are men’s wardrobe staple originating from the American soldier uniform from the 60s.
You can find a version of this jacket in most shops and style it with pretty much anything from jeans and a t-shirt to athleisure wear.
Bomber jackets, another an inspiration from the war (what’s up with guys and soldiers?) is a warmer option for colder spring days. You can pick something simple like street-style synthetic jackets or invest in a leather one.
A classic hoodie
Yes, you can wear hoodies all year long, but in spring you can truly show off this perfect and comfy staple. Pair it with a denim jacket for the weekend run to the coffee shop, wear it to gym or style with a blazer for an office (or Zoom call) look.
Chose a monochrome one as it’s more versatile than the ones with Rick and Morty.
A beanie
There are probably two groups of men. The first one wears beanies with confidence, and the other loathes any headwear.
But a beanie is a great way to elevate a casual look and add some warmth for a cool spring night. Pick a simple one and in neutral colours, and it will go with everything!
White sneakers
Finally, no more snow! This means you can bust out or go shopping for a cool pair of white sneakers.
These shoes are a must-have for any man. They’re pretty, versatile and go with any outfit and for any occasion. Your best choice is a pair of low-tops as they’re easier to style.
Boat shoes
Boat shoes are one of the most iconic American footwear for warmer weather as they’re an easy-to-pair shoe that’s great for the hotter weather.
They are usually made of canvas or leather, but since leather is more versatile, you should opt for that. Check out Forbes list of best boat shoes out there.
Flannel shirt
Lumberjacks are always in, and every man should own a flannel shirt, period. It’s the best choice for the casual day go-to look for those “it’s both cold and warm” days in March or April.
Choose from multiple colours and pattern variations, style it with denim, white sneakers and all hail the nature man.
Sunglasses
Even if you live in colder climates spring brings more sun. It’s time to get those bad boy shades from the drawer!
It’s always best to opt for classic looks like pilot glasses or Ray-Bans as they will go with pretty much any outfit. However, if you’re into experimenting, check out the newest trends and go all in.
New t-shirts
Every season requires an update of the t-shirt shelf. You always need a good base for any outfit, and high-quality t-shirts in such base colours as white, grey and black are a must-have.
It’s best to get a t-shirt subscription such as the 5-pack subscription from Fresh Clean Teas and always have a fresh t-shirt when you need it. Click here to find out more: https://freshcleantees.com/products/basic-5-pack
Slim-fit button-down shirt
There are days when a man needs to look put together, and nothing does a better job than a classic chambray button-down shirt.
You can layer it with a nice blazer or suit jacket or wear it on top of chinos, and you’re ready for a business lunch on a patio or a nice date in the park.
