All Season Staples

Hey there,

Chris here from Taylor Stitch. We’ve finally made it to that point in winter when there are a few more birds in the morning and the sun sets a bit later at night. The subtle change is welcome, but it makes picking out clothes kinda hard. What's the point of investing in something that might only get worn a few times before being tucked away until next October? With that in mind, I’ve pulled together a guide to the gear I’ll be wearing that I don’t have to go through the trouble of putting away in the spring: some of my favorite pieces that bridge the seasons nicely.

The Ledge Shirt

Flannels get a lot of attention at the turn of fall, but they’ve got a place in the wardrobe in the spring as well. While they’re not a great base layer for warm weather, they do a great job of providing the right amount of insulation in the mornings and the evenings. Ideal for that time of year where mornings and nights are freezing cold while the peak of the day is sunny. I like to toss one over a tee in the spring, but the Ledge also gets plenty of mileage during the winter.

The Organic Cotton Tee

Tee shirts are the backbone of any guy's wardrobe. The sweet spot is a tee that’s well made so the shirt maintains its shape and neck with wash and wear, but not so fussy that the inevitable marina stain breaks your heart. These tees strike that balance, they’re thick enough and well made, but at the end of the day they’re a solid midweight tee. They are a great choice to wear underneath a flannel—like the Ledge—and can stand on their own come spring and summer.

The All Day Pant

The All Day Pant is, as the name implies, designed to be a daily driver. You can think of it as a pair of jeans just without being limited to blue denim, so the pockets and design feature the classic 5 pocket style. By nixing the denim in favor of a twill, the pants become much more wearable. Denim signifies a casualness style whereas twill can be casual or dressed up. So, whether it’s with an oxford on date night or just a tee on that first warm day of spring, these pants will look good.

The Cotton Hemp Crew

Of course, it's hard to talk about transitional pieces and not mention a sweatshirt. Not only can they be worn as an outer layer, they can be worn as a midlayer under an overshirt or jacket. Ours is made with a mixture of cotton and hemp, the cotton provides comfort and makes it quick drying, while the hemp adds some breathability and durability. If you were to only get one thing on this list, I’d go with this.\xa0
