These are our Top Ten CYTIES picks from Huckberry.com — suit up.

 Relwen: Packlight Shell

Comfort is key when it comes to a man on the move. The Packlight Shell from Relwen is lightweight, durable, waterproof, and easily stashable in any pack as it folds down into its own pocket. This is the kind of shell created for the elements, but still looks sharp as hell in any social setting — toss it on to slice the wind in half.

 Proof: 72-Hour Merino Tee

Yes, the heading is correct, 72-HOURS. This tee is the fusion of technicality and style, and is made for modern nomads and jet-setters alike. The greatest part about the Merino Tee is that the specialized blend of fabrics don’t sacrifice the performance and comfort of the fit. Huckberry’s team recently put it to the test with a 72-hour Iceland trip, needless to say — it passed the test. If you’re a man on the move, you need this. We chose black of course, because if you haven’t noticed by now, we love classic black as much as Bob Dylan, Andy Warhol and Johnny Cash combined.

 Raen Optics: Colfax

There is always a time of day for the right frames, in this case RAEN or shine. This is a classic look built by the team at RAEN, who strives to create innovative and timeless styles with detailed modern construction. We believe a man should have a few clutch frames in his arsenal, the Colfax, with its distinct angular fit is the pair for everyday wear that easily ties together any get-up — a true go-to. Handcrafted with zyl acetate frames, we can’t get enough of the Kola Tortoise w/ Plum Brown Lens.

Red Wing: Iron Ranger 

A man is as tough as his boots. The longer you wear your Red Wing’s, the more your pair wears into your foot. With a name like Iron Ranger you can imagine how tough these boots really are. Originally, the Iron Ranger was made for iron miners that required a double layer of toe protection. The Iron Ranger’s rough but smooth look is stitched together by the same Puritan sewing machines that did the job when the company was founded. The Hawthorne color pops any outfit, and is sure to wear in nice with creases as time passes.

Huckberry nailed with their custom all-star EDC kit, making it in our eyes the best key ring money can buy. The kit includes:  Split Key Ring (1) Wazoo Survival Gear Woodchuck (1) Screw Key Set (1) and a Peanut Lighter.
