The Summer Months and Men's Fashions





The Summer Months and Men's Fashions

Summer is all about relaxing fits, cool fabrics and vibrant colours. Still, it can be tough for some men to figure out what works and what should be left behind. With that in mind, we thought it'd be good to throw some tried and true ideas out there that work well when the sun's bright and the temperatures are rising.
• Don't underestimate those basics that have been loyal through time. If your khaki shorts are showing wear and tear, it's time to add a few new pair to your collection and save those from seasons past for Saturday afternoons at the car wash. Go for a length that's just above the knee.
• Cotton tees - It's difficult to even suggest tossing those classic favorites, especially if they do have visible wear. After all, it's what gives them character. Still, you need to make room for new colors, looks and graphics. Like the plain cotton tees with a simple pocket? These never go out of style - just don't forget the bright oranges, blues and greens.
• Shoes - Men are traditionally hesitant about buying shoes - even when it's clear they need to. This summer has a lot of the men's fashion designers releasing great looks in trainers and the summer must-have flip flops.
• Accessories - Ball caps will forever be what men reach for on their way out the door. Make sure it fits well and looks well. Save those ratty caps from college for the days when you're wearing last year's shorts at the car wash.
• Denim - It makes no difference if you only wear jeans a few times during the summer months, every man must own a few pair of denim jeans that fit well and look fantastic. Find the right cut and style and you'll never go wrong.
Neatness counts - even when you're trying to look laid-back. Never underestimate the details and take pride in your appearance. Whatever clothes you opt for will look that much better.
