However, there are a lot of amazing and wearable trends these days that deserve your undivided attention, so stay with us and keep on reading if you want to learn more about these. There are six of them, so check them out and enjoy!

Vertical stripes are all the rage…

Speaking of this season’s trendiest prints and patterns, we definitely have to mention vertical stripes which are making a huge comeback this year. These are basically the Holy Grail print for both spring and summer, so make sure to bear them in mind the next time you go shopping. Vertical stripes can be seen literally everywhere – from bombers and field jackets to casual T-shirts and elegant button-downs. When it comes to their size, you should probably pick narrow and straight stripes instead of wide and bold ones, so that you can come up with an even classier and more sophisticated look.

… as well as checks

On the other hand, checks are another amazing representative of the current fashion trends, and it’s important to know that these are still going strong this year as well. They have never really gone away, which just confirms their dominance in the fashion industry, so be sure to make checks work for you this spring and summer. The best way to make that happen is to try out larger or more complex checks on trousers, outerwear, and knitwear. Of course, the inevitable checked shirts and button-downs are still a fantastic choice, but a bit too predictable though, so try to think out of the box and opt for more daring and unique pieces that feature this print.

Tailored suits will never go out of style

When it comes to trends that will never go out of style, we must mention tailored suits as well, simply because these are any classy man’s best friends. There’s nothing more flattering than a suit that perfectly fits your measurements and emphasizes your sculpted body in the best possible way, so check out amazing men’s suits and get one according to your own body shape. Such suits are usually appropriate for formal occasions like weddings or other family gatherings, but you can also wear them to a job interview – especially if you’re applying for a position in a renowned company. Trust us, you won’t make a mistake with a tailored suit, so go for it and you won’t regret it!

Tropical print shirts? Why not!

Yes, we know that you’ve probably spent hours and hours mocking tropical T-shirts in the past, but you know what? This print is at the top of fashionistas’ must-wear list, so try not to skip it if you want to be perceived as a cool and laid-back guy this season. Even designer houses like Louis Vuitton incorporated it into their latest collections, so why wouldn’t you reconsider your previous opinion on tropical print and start wearing it this season? Shirts with such prints are a go-to choice for millions of stylish guys out there, so don’t be an exception and wear them yourself, too.

Wide leg trousers are an absolute must-have piece, as well

Similarly to vertical stripes, wide-leg trousers are also making a major comeback this year, and this is true for both men’s and women’s fashion. These have gradually become a staple in any fashion-forward man’s wardrobe simply because they’re so versatile – their relaxed fit looks amazing in any casual combo, but they’re also fabulous in formal outfits as well. Just smarten them up with a formal button-down and classic shoes, or dress them down with a simple T-shirt and plain white sneakers, and you’re all done!

Sports luxe for all the trendy sportsmen out there

The sports luxe trend has been going strong for some time now, and it’ll be even more powerful this season for one simple reason. Its comfort and practicality combined with stylish designs make this trend exactly what it is – sporty garments with a touch of luxury.
