We’re forever in the mood to update our summer wardrobe here at Coolector HQ and one of the first menswear brands that we gravitate towards when doing this is &SONS because we just can’t get enough of their vintage vibes. Luckily, they have an abundance of wares that are ideally suited to the warm summer months and which will add a touch of old school cool to your wardrobe rotation.

Check out our pick of 5 &SONS essentials for your summer wardrobe below:
