You've got to appreciate a subtle style flex like this. La Paz excels at warm weather garments that look as good as they feel. Case in point: this short sleeve spread collar shirt. Cut from breathable washed cotton, it features two small cacti embroidered on the chest pocket. It's not a bold, loud pattern ... instead, it's almost a wink. That's cool.

This rain coat is so stylish, you won't mind the spring downpours. After unearthing his grandfather's beat-up old raincoat in an abandoned barn, Alexander Stutterheim became determined to create coats crafted with the same diligence, care and artisan craftsmanship, but modernized for the needs and tastes of today's man. There's no velcro, no Gore-Tex, no unnecessary embellishments. Just 100% PVC that works in conjunction with the double welded seams for unmatched, sea-tested resistance against moisture. And Uncrate teamed up with the brand to bring us this smoke grey translucent version.

It's a classic shoe with a nod to the boldness of 2019 menswear. These Era sneakers from Vans are tie-dyed in a graphic black and yellow colorway. They're not meant to "go with" anything really. They're designed to stand out and make simple navy chinos or light washed jeans look both relaxed and badass.

Need a new Dopp kit? Or a pouch to keep all of your chargers and technological accessories contained while you travel? This is a really handsome (if a tad pricey) option. Cut from a herringbone twill in a classic frogskin camouflage pattern, it's got a brass Talon brand zipper fitted with a leather zipper pull. Which means that this thing can take a beating and will surely last you a decade or longer.

Sunglasses are a personal choice. But there are a few sharp looking pairs that seemingly make any guy more handsome. And this is one of those pairs. From Carhartt's collaboration with Sun Buddies, the slightly oversized "wayfarer" style frame is crafted in a custom tortoise pattern from Italian acetate. They've got Carl Zeiss lenses with 100% UV protection and a seven bar hinge at the temple for added stability.
