One day it’s sunny and hot. The next day it’s raining and cold. Then is sunny, rainy, hot, cold and windy all in the same day! Welcome to British spring time.
Weather like this means men have to be clever with their daily outfits during these few glorious months. It’s tricky because you don’t want to be too hot by sporting too many layers or heavy knitwear and at the same time you don’t want to be caught in a downpour wearing just a t-shirt!
This outfit by AllSaints is spot on in our books, with a light vintage military inspired low scoop Handro vest layered with a light contrast sleeve fully lined Hakusan biker jacket (easy enough to take off and carry for the hot mid-day sun) with a pair of knee length turn up Preston shorts and Stealth boots that have been hand finished by skilled craftsmen.
We admit this is a look that suits a certain type of gent, but if you’re the kinda guy into an alternative scene with ink on your skin, it’s very much suited to your style. AllSaints are also currently offering free delivery on orders over £100 so don’t hang about!
We like how it’s a simple but significant look and whilst everyone’s bringing out the bright threads during spring, why not stick to black. Make a statement. This is England not Hawaii! Take a lesson from Johnny Cash himself:
“I wore black because I liked it. I still do, and wearing it still means something to me. It's still my symbol of rebellion - against a stagnant status quo, against our hypocritical houses of God, against people whose minds are closed to others' ideas.”
