20 New Spring Wardrobe Must-Haves

#1 Nautical Color.
Why is it a Find? Nautical colors re-emerge this season, with every shade of blue and white looking especially modern. Brooks Brothers’ solid cotton button up is far from ordinary. This beautiful shade of navy is highlighted by the subtle honeycomb texture of the garment dyed fabric, adding just the right amount of depth to the color.
Wear it with: Wear it layered under sweaters, as an accent color, or on its own with any of your pants, shorts, and jeans of the season.
Fit Tip: It comes in 2 Brooks Bothers fits: the Regent fit, which is their modern and most popular fit that has a slightly trimmer chest and waist for an update to their traditional cut; and the Milano Fit, which is their most contemporary fit that is slimmer for a more fitted look.
Alternatives: There are 3 other great colors through the ‘shop it’ button, too.

#2 Nautical Color.
Why is it a Find? White isn’t just for t-shirts. It’s a key color this season and this pair of Bonobos cotton twill pants are just the right way to incorporate it into your warm weather wardrobe. The straight leg silhouette is clean, classic, and in perfect balance to the simply chic white color. Bonobos is known for its excellent value and great fit – these pants don’t disappoint.
Wear it with: White is the ultimate neutral color, so wear them with everything. They stand up to sweaters and button up shirts for the office, and can take on a laidback look with t-shirts and hoodies on the weekend.

#8 Practice Gear Inspired.
Why is it a Find? Gents, still unsure about joggers? Unsure of what that really even means these days? Let us help. With athletic inspirations, and the merging of casual and dress in today’s clothing, those old school sweats have gotten more polished in design– and those comfortable design elements, like elasticized waists and hems, have found their way to casual pants. And they’re all forms of joggers. These UNIQLO cotton pants are a perfect demonstration of the trend, done in an expertly non-trendy way. The button waistband is flat in the front to conceal the comfy elastic back, and the crisp garment-dyed twill cotton fabric balance the stylish hem detail.
Wear it with: Wear them as you would any casual pants, with t-shirts, hoodies and button up shirts. They look great with slip-on canvas shoes, flip flops, and sneakers - low or hi-top.
Fit Tip: The fit is contemporary, with a trimmer (but not skinny) leg. The elasticized bottom hits just at the ankle to make it easy to wear with sneakers, slip ons, and all casual shoes.
Alternatives: We are featuring the khaki color (called 32 Beige through the ‘shop it’ button) and there are a few other equally neutral – and versatile - colors through the ‘shop it’ button, too.

#9 Dapper Duds.
Why is it a Find? No matter the season, a good-looking suit is a must. This one from BOSS Hugo Boss has a subtle pattern in a seasonally ideal weight wool. The dark blue shade is just right for both important business meetings and formal events, offering just the right versatility required when investing in a suit.
Wear it with: Since the pattern in this suit is understated, it is easy to accessorize with both pattern and solid shirts and ties. For more formal occasions, we recommend a spread collar white dress shirt and solid or small pattern tie. For a daytime business meeting, a pattern dress shirt with a coordinating tie is a really smart look.
Fit Tip: The fit is contemporary, for a trim and dapper appearance.
Alternatives: If you prefer an easier fit, go for this Samuelsohn suit.

#10 Dapper Duds.
Why is it a Find? Never underestimate the power of a sport coat. Robert Graham hits all the right notes for the season, using updated shades of blues, and a wool and linen blend fabric to do the two things every gent wants from a sport coat: 1. Throw it on to dress up your jeans; 2. Create a polished finish for the office or Springtime event. Done and done. The style details give this warm weather jacket a casual feel, while retaining a polished look for dressier needs.
Wear it with: This sport coat is simply so versatile. It’s great with dark wash jeans, khakis, and linen pants. Layer it over a white or heather grey t-shirt for a casual weekend look, while a white cotton or linen button up shirt creates a smart look for the office or evening out. For a dressier event or business meeting when suits aren’t necessary, pair it with dark grey wool pants, a dress shirt, and tie.
Fit Tip: The fit is modern with enough room for most every gent to feel comfortable and look polished.
Alternatives: : If you prefer a trimmer, contemporary fit, this Hugo Boss sport coat is a great option.

#11 Third Piece.
Why is it a Find? In the warmer months, a cardigan is a great sport coat replacement, and Vince’s cotton version has a zipper closure and stylish tonal elbow patches that give it a little more structure and polish than just your average cardigan. This modern take on a classic design offers useful versatility and just the right amount of fun style for a day at the office or anywhere.
Wear it with: The navy color makes it easy to wear with most every top and bottom in your arsenal. Effortless with any button up and cotton pants for the office, it adds unexpected polish to a great-looking t-shirt and your favorite jeans, shorts and even joggers.

The ribbing details on the shoulder, sleeves, and neck subtly step it up from a basic.
Wear it with: We’re featuring the perfectly neutral pale smoke grey color that goes with everything – your other neutrals, as well as pops of Spring color. Layer it over a t-shirt or button up, and finish your look with jeans, linen or cotton pants, even shorts.

Wear it with: It layers so well under any color or pattern, so it will work with all your sweaters and sport coats for a day at the office. The denim color holds up on its own, too, whether you pair it with neutral or colored pants. And yes, you can even wear it with jeans – do it with a dark wash that doesn’t match too closely. This is a seriously useful shirt.
Fit Tip: The fit is modern, with enough room in the chest and waist for most every gent.

#14 Denim Details.

Wear it with: Wear it with everything from solid and pattern button up shirts and t-shirts, to sport coats and cotton sweaters.
Fit Tip: Cut in AG’s popular Matchbox model, these jeans have a modern fit, so the leg and seat have an updated, narrower fit that still isn’t skinny. We recommend it for every gent that wants an updated look, without a truly skinny fit.
Alternatives: If you prefer an easier fit, these 34 Heritage jeans are the perfect option.

#15 Spring Showers.
Why is it a Find? Rainforest’s classic navy waterproof raincoat is just what every gent needs. It is lightweight for comfort. And its practicality shines through in its fine details, like the dual zip-and-button storm flap closure that ensures you stay dry even in the worst of rain storms. The finger tip length is modern and long enough to cover a suit jacket. The touch of yellow trim inside and under the collar will bring the sunshine when Mother Nature won’t.
Wear it with: Wear it with everything. It looks just as good over a suit as it does with jeans.

And that makes them a perfectly versatile pair of shoes to capture the athleisure trend that continues this season. The combination provides comfort, with a modern look that allows you to wear them as a “nicer” alternative to sneakers.
