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.

It seems everyone loves the '80s, and honestly, what's not to love? The simpler times, the yuppies, MTV, and, of course, the fashion. Mitchell & Ness Nostalgia Co., a renowned seller of historically accurate vintage sports apparel, is capitalizing on that throwback trend with another partnership with Miller Lite. Together, they have launched a limited-edition collection that "gives a fresh take on the nostalgia of the original Athletic Club line" that originated in that decade. That's right! Now you can own vintage-inspired crew necks, sweatpants, t-shirts, windbreakers, and hats that will take you all the way back to that classic '80s vibe.
What's in the collection?
Pieces from the collection range from $35 to $100, according to a press release,  made with "premium fabrics, providing high-quality pieces that are built to last." This includes a classic crewneck sweatshirt that is unisex and comes with ribbed side panels for maximum stretch, ribbing at the cuffs for a truly '80s look, and the Miller Lite Athletic Club emblem on the front for $80. Also in the collection are the snapback hat in navy ($35), a navy windbreaker (because you can't have a throwback line without a windbreaker) for $100, sweats, and a 100% polyester unisex satin navy jacket ($95) to cap off the look. It can't get much more '80s than this.

The Best Men’s Summer Socks To Slip Slip Your Toes Into
Sink Your Toes into the Best Summer Socks of 2019

The very last thing on your mind right now might be summer socks. After all, it's simply too hot to wear socks, and you'd rather be at the beach or the lake kicked back, sans socks, yes? That's a daily pipe dream for most of us, and back here in the real world, summer socks are still a necessity and an essential. The best pairs blend lightweight style and comfort with functionality for most every situation.

You've got your no-show socks, ideal for wearing with low-top sneakers or slip-on sneakers. You've got socks made to wear with hiking boots or sneaker boots, and even socks you can wear with chukka boots when things cool off just a little bit. The best part about all of this is the fact that the same brands you wear during fall and winter also make seasonally friendly socks at prices that won't break the bank.
