Lifestyle and apparel company Southern Tide has teamed up with Hawaiian heritage brand Reyn Spooner for an island-inspired menswear collection tailor-made for summer.

The new collaboration sees the two celebrated coastal entities combining forces for a line of colorful clothes that embody the best aspects of both brands. This means the collection not only boasts the iconic patterns, fabrics, and prints of Reyn Spooner’s Aloha Spirit, but also features the moisture-wicking, quick-drying, and UV-blocking technology of Southern Tide’s performance wear.

This mix of legacy styling and modern-day fabrications makes The Southern Tide X Reyn Spooner Collection a one-two punch of functionality and design that could be a knockout for guys after a trendy seaside vibe this season. The line includes t-shirts, Southern Tide’s signature polos, Reyn Spooner’s famous Aloha shirts, shorts, and swimwear.

“We are thrilled to be partnering with Southern Tide,” explained Reyn Spooner CEO Lynne Koplin in a statement. “Southern Tide has a youthful vibe and adventurous spirit. I am excited to combine our iconic prints with their performance technology to embrace a new generation of customers from coast-to-coast.”

Southern Tide X Reyn Spooner Intercoastal Performance Short Sleeve

Of the Hawaiian shirts in the new Southern Tide X Reyn Spooner collection, the Intercoastal Performance Short Sleeve is a particular standout. The vintage-inspired top is crafted from a nylon stretch fabric for excellent mobility, plus all the great quick dry tech mentioned above. If the practical specs aren’t enough to win you over, surely the groovy fabric, with its gorgeous mountainscape motif, will.

Another fun item in the line is the pair of Aloha Swim Trunks from Reyn Spooner, which set a classic garland of tropical white flowers against a dark navy background. A six-inch inseam puts these bad boys right in the sweet spot between long and short, hitting as they do just above the knee. They also feature a breathable mesh lining and natural stretch for optimized comfort all (beach) day long.

Southern Tide X Reyn Spooner Wave Print Performance Polo

A classic fit and UV sun protection along with moisture-wicking tech make this polo the perfect shirt for golf, Sunday brunch, or a day wandering the beaches of Waikiki.

The full Southern Tide x Reyn Spooner collection — again, including sport shirts, polos, tees, swimwear — is now available for purchase at Southern Tide Signature Stores and online, here.

This new Cartier watch tells time backwards
Turn back time with the new Santos
Cartier Rewind on wrist

Wristwatches may be distinctly masculine pieces of hardware now, thanks to some very popular people in pop culture and in our own history adopting them. British super spy James Bond, movie stars, and athletes are the people we look up to who wear watches that catch our eye. Soldiers, cops, firefighters, and first responders wear watches they trust to ensure they can save lives. Pilots and divers created an entire industry around watches specifically designed for their vocations. And the very first pilot's watch was none other than a Cartier watch.

Alberto Santos-Dumont was a pioneer in the flight world and was one of the first people on Earth to achieve air travel. He was a competitor of the Wright Brothers, and, depending on the source, he preceded them in flight. In any case, the French celebrity went to Louis Cartier, another pioneer of his craft, and procured a square timekeeper meant for the wrist. The Cartier Santos Dumont was born. Over a century later, Cartier attended Watches and Wonders and presented the newest in the line of Santos watches, one that reverses time.
