Ease into Summer with Penfield Clothing

By Kathleen Kim June 12, 2013

Summer has officially arrived, and it calls for a new wardrobe. We suggest peeking at Penfield for inspiration. Since 1975, the outdoor clothing brand has crafted garments fit for unpredictable the New England weather. Penfield’s clothes “give you warmth in a variety of weather conditions, active comfort without restrictions, and years of superior performance,” the website says.

Found in stores across the United States and worldwide, Penfield products are made with hardy materials: densely woven wax cloth, tough nylon and Thermolite fabric to ward off the cold.

For the summer, we’re looking at the lightweight cotton T-shirts ($40-$60) and boldly printed shorts ($60-$80). The water-resistant hooded jackets ($115) will keep you dry during a sudden rain shower. So go ahead, stock up and head outdoors in style.

Our top picks for yellow watches for men

Yellow watches for men are not for the faint-hearted, and you'll need some serious confidence if you're going to sport one of these eye-catchers on your wrist. With summer just around the corner, a yellow watch is the perfect accessory to brighten up your look, whether you're taking a stroll along the Italian Riviera or lounging at home with steaks on the grill. These citrus-hued watches, from the TAG Heuer Formula 1 to the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Diver, stand out as a ray of sunshine amid the gloom of rainy spring days, making us dream of the warm breeze and blooming flowers in summer.

Yellow watches come in a hue that commands attention, that's for sure, which is why you see them on road signs and neon highlighters at school. With its inherent ability to captivate, either as a matte yellow or a more lustrous gold, the presence of a yellow dial on your watch will certainly draw attention.

5 stylish spring color combinations every man should know

Ditch the fall and winter colors for the spring

Now that spring is here, your wardrobe could use a bit of an update in the color department. While the fall and winter seasons have a bevy of jewel tones and earth tones to keep you nice and cozy, the spring and summer is built for light and fun colors that keep your mood as light as the hues. Spring colors are some of the brightest and lightest on the color wheel, including pastels and lighter tones of your reds, greens, blues, and purples.

When putting together spring colors for men, there are some great options to ensure your looks are always top-notch. One of our favorite resources is Max Israel of Y. Chroma. His entire system is built for ease of color use, and while you may feel a little initial unpleasantness getting outside your comfort zone, adopting these five color combinations will ease you into some more fun palettes and get your wardrobe to the point of being the talk of the town.
