Huckberry figured out the transition jacket with help from Relwen Clothing

Midwest ruggedness for every man

Getting yourself a good coat is the perfect way to spend the winter cozied up and protected from the cold. Getting yourself the right fabrics in the summer is the best way to keep yourself cool and your clothing breathable during the sweltering summer. But what about the months in between? Fall and spring are notorious for their cold mornings and warm afternoons. The rise from coat weather to sweaty weather means you have a dire need for a transition wardrobe, and in particular, a great light jacket. Huckberry is one of our favorite brands for the rugged masculine aesthetic, and they figured out how the transition jacket should be with the help of Relwen outerwear.

Relwin sends the message for us to “be lasting”

They got their start in the open fields of the Midwest and still call Columbus, Ohio, their home today. The fields, agricultural farms, and hard-working spirit of America’s heartland give Relwen their motto, “Be lasting.” Like any farm equipment you look at today, there is a purposeful mix between the old ways of doing things and technological innovation. For Relwen, heritage isn’t forgotten or sacrificed for the sake of tomorrow’s fashion. Instead, it is weaved into classics like canvas jackets, quilted coats, and waxed blazers to give their entire collection a lived-in and worked-in feel. If you need a light jacket, the standout of this collection is the Quilted Insulator Tanker Jacket. And if you need something lower profile, the Heritage Trap Blazer would be your go-to all season long.

How to remove coffee stains from clothes on those unfortunate mornings
What to do when you spill your coffee
Coffee cup empty

For everyday coffee drinkers, it's almost inevitable you'll spill your coffee at one point or another. Even with the best spill-proof travel coffee mugs on hand, accidents happen. What's worse is that I always seem to spill coffee on my clothes when I'm in a hurry and don't have time to change into a new outfit. It's even more unfortunate when you spill your coffee on an item of clothing you love.

Before you panic, however, not all clothes are wholly ruined once they come in contact with coffee. Knowing how to remove coffee stains from clothes allows you to act quickly and get the best chance of saving your favorite item of clothing. Though I hope never to spill my coffee again, I prefer to be realistic and keep these methods in my back pocket.

Spring style: Snaps Clothing, Jay DeMarcus lead the pearl snap shirt’s comeback
Snaps Clothing teams with Rascal Flatts to update Spring Shirts for Men

When I was a kid, I watched my grandfather work on his farm season in and season out, seven days a week from sun up to sun down, without ever abandoning one of his most trusted pieces, the pearl snap shirt. While I always viewed this kind of shirt (he had at least 100 of them in his closet and my grandmother continued to make more and more for him as the years went on) as something specifically made for farmers, there has been a resurgence of this shirt into the mainstream, thanks in large part to Yellowstone and its push of the western wear trend that has returned to the forefront of style. Now, as we look towards the seasonal change and start shopping for spring shirts for men, it isn't surprising that we still see pearl snaps everywhere.

Of course, not all pearl snap shirts are created equal, and Snaps Clothing has emerged as one of the top games in town. They aren't resting on their laurels, though, and they are stepping it up in a real way this spring as they have teamed with Jay DeMarcus of Rascal Flatts to create the perfect shirt for him to wear on the road.
