Spring is a fresh chance to reassess your closet after months of chill. The season calls for light layers that can easily transition from warm days to spring showers to cool nights. It also calls for pops of color and light neutral tones. These picks will make you eager to get outside, whether you’re heading to an early season, full-of-hope baseball game or the beer garden.

Don’t let a little rain get in the way of comfort and style. Nike’s Tech Pack collection uses a waterproof membrane between feel-good cotton layers to help stay dry without feeling the need to hide it away as soon as you get inside. A stand collar keeps the chill and moisture off your neck, while side pockets and flap-over pockets keep your things dry.

Men's Bison Leather Fleece Lined Driving Moccasins
Men's Bison Leather Fleece Lined Driving Moccasins

A solid pair of driving shoes will take you there. Literally, but also in the figurative sense in that you’ll feel so good wearing these mocs you’ll start find excuses to wear them. A pebbled and durable bison leather outside is lined inside with soft shearling wool that envelopes your feet. The classic driving shoe rubber heel stop is of course on the back while non-slip lugs keep you steady on the ground.

Nomos Club Campus Endless Blue
Nomos Club Campus Endless Blue

Time to bring some color back to your wrist. The striking blue face of the NOMOS Club Campus makes the orange seconds hand pop. This is the type of watch to be shown off on a picnic on some fresh grass (or as soon as you can feel summer Fridays around the corner). And with a water resistance of 100 meters, it’s also the type of watch that’s perfect for any time you’re around a body of water. It has a split dial with Arabic numerals on top and Roman numerals on bottom, and the Super-LumiNova shines blue. The 36mm diameter looks good on just about any size wrist, and the manual movement holds power for an impressive 43 hours.

MR P. Open-Knit Ribbed Cotton Polo Shirt
MR P. Open-Knit Ribbed Cotton Polo Shirt

A relaxed polo is made all the better with subtle ladder stitches as soon as warmer weather hits. Pair it with a simple white tank underneath or a classic white tee if you need a little more warmth. Just make sure the quality underneath matches the quality of the polo—you can see through those breathable holes after all.

Nike Life Men's Waxed Canvas Work Jacket
Nike Life Men's Waxed Canvas Work Jacket

Chore coats and work jackets have come a long way since their origin with 19th century French laborers. This waxed canvas option from Nike keeps the “work” in work jacket with its water-repellent finish, but is cut to look just as good as it performs with a patina that only gets better the more you wear it. The insulated sleeves easily layer over a shirt or a hoodie depending on whatever spring weather throws at you.

Huckberry x Danner Mountain Moc 917
Huckberry x Danner Mountain Moc 917

The first time Danner made a hard-wearing moccasin like this was more than half a century ago. Huckberry teamed up with Danner for the Mountain Moc 917, an update to the longstanding boot maker’s 1960s-era Canoe Moc. While the look is classic, the materials and make are modern: waterproof GORE-TEX liner, Ortholite footbed, wider-platform stitchdown construction, and a sneaker-esque Vibram 917 sole. Perfect for mild spring weather.

The Division Shirt
The Division Shirt

The overshirt meets the denim jacket in this Taylor Stitch number. Made with 100-percent organic 10-ounce cotton that can stand up to activities best done under an open sky, it also has a trim cut that works tucked or untucked. Burnt corozo buttons made from Tagus tree nuts and two button-flap chest pockets only add to the look.

Trumbull Vintage Wash Crewneck Sweatshirt
Trumbull Vintage Wash Crewneck Sweatshirt

It’s hard to go wrong with a crewneck sweater in the spring. Pull the sleeves up when the sun is out, stay a little warmer with the sleeves down and a light layer when the chill hits. It’s not technically vintage as the name says, but it does have that mid century sportswear vintage appeal with a loose fit, made all the easier to love with soft USA cotton.

Buy: $138
Nettle Denim Jacket
Nettle Denim Jacket

This is unlike any other denim jacket on the market—vintage or otherwise. Pangaia uses a mix of 82 percent cotton and 18 percent wild Himalayan Nettle (also called ramie). It’s then treated with the company’s natural PPRMINT blend of peppermint oil to combat odors. Denim rarely needs frequent washing, but this treatment means you won’t have to worry about the smells that come with repeated wears.

Cotton Regular Fit Trouser
Cotton Regular Fit Trouser

It might not be quite time to swap your heavier pants completely out of your rotation, but that doesn’t mean going shorts and linen pants just yet. These Italian-made trousers have a cotton-Lyocell outer that’s treated with a water-repellent finish. On the inside, luxuriously soft Bemberg cupro lining that's commonly used for dress pants.

Buy: $175
Plisse Button Through Sweater Polo
Plisse Button-Through Sweater Polo

A relaxed short sleeve button up with the cozy feel of a sweater. It uses a soft, thick, sweater-knit material that has some stretch to it. It’s an easy choice for early season beach town days, whether worn open with an undershirt or buttoned up.

Buy: $70
Rho LT Crew Neck
Rho LT Crew Neck

Sure, you could go out and trudge through hikes in the mud and wind chill in whatever you have in your closet and just be happy you can more comfortably be outside. But you’ll be happier if you have the right base layer. Arc’teryx’s Rho LT Crew Neck is moisture wicking, lightweight, breathable, and designed for layering without hindering movement.

Buy: $110
Seersucker Cap
Seersucker Cap

Subtle, classy, and better fitting than that random branded hat in your closet. What more could you ask for in a spring-ready hat? This lightweight Italian seersucker hat from Sunspel has an adjustable strap with a metal clasp. It’s 98 percent cotton and gets a touch of stretch with Elastane. Quiet luxury at its finest for an inherently casual cap.

Buy: $175
Men's Hopsack Twin Pocket Jacket
Men's Hopsack Twin Pocket Jacket

A casual throw-on jacket that is as comfy as a work-from-home piece, perfect for an upscale but relaxed dinner party, and completes a day-at-the-museum outfit. The material has noticeable texture, and the front has horn buttons and a sizable pocket on each lower side. Wear it open or buttoned up–the thick, 100-percent linen fabric from an Italian linen mill falls just right either way.

Buy: $615
Covert 1/2 Zip Neck
Covert 1/2 Zip Neck

Arc’teryx is one of those rare outdoor performance-wear brands that makes products that don’t look like you only buy clothing from REI. Made from 100-percent recycled polyester Alpenex II fleece, the Covert has a tall collar for the colder times and articulated patterning that allows the same performance movement that Arc’teryx’s goods are known for. It has enough warmth to get you through spring, but is slim enough and looks great as a mid-layer as well with a light jacket thrown over.

Buy: $150
Natural Pima Curved Hem Henley
Natural Pima Curved Hem Henley

A classic henley is never out of style. Buck Mason uses a vintage-inspired curved hem for its long-sleeve henley. Which, combined with a low four buttons and ribbed cuffs, makes this a fit for layering or wearing on its own.

Performance Chinos
Performance Chinos

For when you want the class of a proper chino with the mobility of activewear. Everlane’s Performance Chino is sweat-wicking and quick-drying for hot days and random rain showers alike. They have an athletic fit with a roomy thigh that goes down to a tapered leg (with four-way stretch for easy mobility).

Bungalow Polo
Bungalow Polo

If your sweater polo style is muted spring tones and ‘60s patterns, Todd Snyder’s Bungalow Polo is the perfect match. It’s a luxurious 55 percent silk, 45 percent cotton with natural shell buttons and a notched lapel. This is a polo that’s ready for the shore at the first sight of sun.
