The great folks at Flint and Tinder have once again knocked it out of the park with the shirt you didn’t know you needed in your winter wardrobe. Yes, the Texas Moleskin Shirt gets plenty of things right. Take the slim, tailored fit and the comfortable, warm moleskin fabric — then mash that up with its USA-made construction and classic styling details, like a button-down collar and chest pocket. It’s simple, essential and very stylish for winter.

Taking on winter weather — say, dressing for the polar vortex — requires a special kind of style. And that rugged, durable approach should carry right on through to your watch. Made with the technical specs you’d expect from a field and battle-tested watch, the Navy Seal Colormark Watch features Swiss construction and a polycarbonate-reinforced case, plus 200 meters of water resistance. Safe to say, a snow storm won’t be an issue for this watch.

Last but not least — perhaps the most crucial of winter accessories (besides a cozy winter hat, of course). When you want to invest in the best, it pays to go to a brand that rarely missteps with its hand-finished gloves. The Hestra Granvik Gloves are rugged, tough and just what you need when a blizzard hits — and they can work in the fall in place of standard work gloves, too. That’s nearly too good to be true, ehh?
