Abercrombie has become a go-to source for cropped shirts. The design team knows what they're doing. And they just dropped a selection of linen long-sleeve shirts, perfect for summer. Cut with a relaxed, boxy shape and the perfect, just-short-enough length, it's available in a dozen colors and patterns. It's the kind of shirt you can wear to work with some proper pants or just throw over a tank with some swim trunks and it looks just as right.

Finished with military-grade tubular nylon webbing with multiple loop webbing (a.k.a. daisy chain) for modular hangs and add-ons. Take your pick from black, navy blue, camo or this perfect shade of olive drab.

Grab some boat shoes that have already been broken-in for you. Well, not exactly. But Sperry just launched a boat shoe in collaboration with Colbo that embodies the well-worn, soft vibes of the classic summer shoe that's already lived through multiple summers. How'd they do it? Through expert distressing techniques and carefully pre-washed materials. Available in two colorways, you can score them now on Colbo's site and in-store and will be live on Sperry's online shop today.

The Leatherman brand makes great blades. Anyone who's used one of the legendary multi-tools knows this. But now they're streamlining by holding the tools and just offering the knives solo. Leatherman just introduced a five-piece knife collection, crafted from strong, corrosion-resistant “Magnacut” steel and finished lightweight handles built from layered fiberglass coated in smooth resin. At a mere 3.7 oz. (about the weight of a deck of cards), the lightweight Glider blade is our choice for everyday carry. A faceted handle design with only two visible fasteners gives it a clean, elegant look and the deep-carry pocket clip ensures it stays put when not in use.

A braided belt is a great option for summer looks. Flint and Tinder’s version (available in black, tan and this rich, dark brown) makes for a timeless wardrobe upgrade that feels very right now. Crafted from sturdy, full-grain Nume leather, it will soften and develop a unique patina the more you wear it. The hand-braided design and matte brass buckle add just the right amount of rugged refinement, whether you're dressing up with tailored trousers or keeping it casual with weekend shorts.
