Today is Veteran’s Day, and considering the holiday is supposed to honor those who are currently serving or have served in the past (as well as their families), it’s only fitting they receive a little special treatment. In celebration of the holiday, Huckberry is offering 20% off sitewide to veterans, active duty and military families, with verification through ID.me. There’s no better time to shop the site at a discounted price, what with their expansive 2021 gift guide having dropped recen…

How the tables have turned.

And no, linen is not your only option.

Like it or not, there comes a time in everyone’s life when socks become one of the most thrilling gifts a person can receive. Typically this transformation occurs sometime in early adulthood, when the desperation for basic necessities far outweighs the want for some extravagant gift. While you can rest easy knowing that your socks will be received with sincere enthusiasm, it doesn’t make the task of shopping for them any more exciting. But that’s because you’ve been shopping for socks the wr…

In 2023, few jacket styles feel more complicated than a spring blazer. Unlike other spring staples — quality chinos and sweaters abound — finding a blazer that’s wearable (see: reasonably casual and appropriately sized) and appropriate for spring, with all of the weird and unpredictable weather that comes with it, is no easy feat. The best spring blazers are relaxed but not frumpy, lightweight but still substantial. And with office dress codes laxer than ever, it can feel like a losing battle to…

We did it, guys. We reclaimed the white tank top. No longer is the t-shirt’s sleeveless cousin just an underestimated undershirt hidden away underneath button-downs or a ribbed top smeared with connotations of douchebaggery and a certain not-so-PC moniker. Through years of blood, sweat and a lot of TikTok ’fit vids, menswear heads everywhere have convinced the general public that tanks can, in fact, be a viable, versatile and, dare we say, total hottie move for the summer months ahead. But…

Summer is gross. Yes, it’s a time for slacking off and shopping leftover Prime Day deals and generally wearing considerably less clothing, but there’s a host of other factors to contend with, namely the oppressive heat and humidity sweeping the country that makes getting dressed feel like an unnaturally sticky chore. It’s a conundrum that presents itself every year, without fail — how does one get appropriately dressed, in the full sense of the word, without sacrificing style or comfort? As it t…

We carry a lot of shit with us — laptops, books, tablets and other random things that aren’t necessary but we can’t bring ourselves to rid of. Not to mention the emotional and mental trauma we’re required to lug around day in and day out. We’re practically pack mules. Considering the wide variety of objects people are now expected to transport from home to work and then back again, the type of bag one uses can make all the difference. A bag ill-equipped for the job can make that morning comm…

Since the dawn of time, man’s drive to innovate has set us apart. Fire, then the wheel. Coldstone Creamery. But even amongst the dizzying heights of Polio vaccines and Bluetooth headphones, one crowning achievement stands out among the rest: Levi’s iconic San Francisco-founded denim company. Since the first pair of Levi’s iconic 501 was released, all the way back in 1873, Levi’s craftsmanship, quality and nifty market sense have propelled the brand to become the most ubiquitous name in jeans. Th…

The Original "Ripley" Is the Ultimate Blueprint for Summer Style

We’ll just say what is clearly on your mind: the very existence of corduroy shorts is...kind of weird? Corduroy, of course, being a fabric heavily associated with fall, while shorts remain a distinct summer item. The choice seems at odds with virtually everything about the style. But as we grapple with hotter summers and, unfortunately, warmer falls, it’s worth giving the corduroy short another look. If you remain unconvinced and are left imagining a heavy, burdensome short that constricts…

There are very few brands that can hold a candle to Ray-Ban in terms of iconic status, sunglasses or otherwise. The Rochester-founded sunnies maker is responsible for some of the most recognizable and beloved sunglasses ever made, from the Wayfarer to the Clubmaster. They’ve cropped up in blockbuster movies, bridged the noses of leaders of the free world and generally denote being a total shade-toting badass. And while the brand will certainly go down in the annals of sunglass history as o…

As far as sunglasses go, few retain an icon status as elevated and iconic as Persol. Italian by birthright and totally baller by nature, the centuries-old sunglasses maker boasts a swag-infused lineup of avaitor-type sunnies and The Dark Night-aprroved shades that rivals the catologue of even Ray-Ban. You’ve seen them on all your favorite menswear icons — McQueen, of course (do we even need to mention it?) but rakish gents like Jacob Elordi and Brian Cox, too, The History of Persol: In…

It’s a debate as old as time: the Lacoste polo versus the Ralph Lauren polo. Since their respective conceptions, both have been propelled to icon status in the menswear sphere, enduring as wardrobe staples capable of appealing to a range of stylistic sensibilities, considered the pinnacle of prep by many, while simultaneously finding favor among rappers and various counter-culture figures alike. Choosing between the two, though, can be tricky. Glance at the shirts and you might think they’…

There are some outfits that stick with you, some you can’t quite shake from your memory. One outfit I can recall with clarity was worn by a friend a couple of years ago, the ensemble in question consisting of a vintage hockey jersey, shorts and pristine tassel loafers he had just scored at L Train Vintage for a mere $20. It may sound like a strange amalgamation of clothing, but it was one of those outfits that just seemed to work. Yet there was one facet of the look I found myself fixated on…

We’ll be straight with you; there’s technically no such thing as a “fall movie”. The genre exists only at best as a vague concept, a vibe, rather than as an actual Academy Award category. And by extension of logic, “fall movie looks” are a non-existent generalization of whatever it is that costume directors decide to stick actors in, a gaggle of garms that, unlike classic fall style, is unmoored by any tangible sartorial distinction. But. Any average Joe who’s seen Practical Magic should be…

The white T-shirt has long been touted as an iconic but understated piece of menswear, thanks to the likes (and sex appeal) of James Dean, Marlon Brando and countless others after them. But despite its supposed icon status, the white T-shirt as it exists in many closets today is an afterthought, something bought out of mere necessity and then treated as such. But it’s time to start viewing it as a serious part of your wardrobe. So let go of the old, worn and probably yellowed white tees you’…

When it comes to looking cool, leather jackets have largely monopolized the field — they connote toughness and rebelliousness. But for many, they’re something that seems cool in theory but will never likely come to fruition in their wardrobes. However, there is a style of jacket that rivals leather in coolness, if not surpasses it altogether: the Harrington. You’ve probably seen the silhouette before, given that it is one of the most ubiquitous, but if you were unaware of its name, or that i…

Bathrobes are a common theme among male fictional characters — Tony Soprano did on the regular, Robert De Niro wore one both in Casino and The Irishman, Daniel Craig’s Bond sported a lush, velvety brown number in Spectre, and how can we forget The Dude from The Big Lebowski. It’s time to take cues from these fictional characters and invest in a robe of your own. These are the best men’s bathrobes you can buy right now. HANRO® Night and Day Knit Robe This robe is on the expensive end, b…

Everyone knows New Balance shoes. Along with huge athletic labels like Nike and Adidas, it’s one of the most instantly recognizable shoe brands on earth, responsible for some of the most iconic and classic sneakers ever made...and that was before Teddy Santis got involved. But while you might be able to spot a fresh pair of New Balance shoes from afar, identifying the exact New Balance models can still pose a challenge. Seeing as the brand typically assigns numbers to their shoes rather than tra…
