7 Menswear Trends That Will Rule The Streets In Summer 2022

Summer is the most fashionably vibrant of the four seasons. It is also the season where outfits are stripped to their core and wardrobe essentials like t-shirts and shorts take the center stage. For men, who comparatively have lesser options than women when it comes to outfits, it is important that the looks you wear this season are selected with certain style considerations.

Whilst there is a common misconception that strictly following trends links to good dressing, we believe that’s not the case. Good dressing is always the sweet spot between your personal style, trends, and future classics (trends that are here to stay). 

From the return of the florals to strong collar shirts, we’ve laid out seven menswear summer trends that rule the streets in summer 2022.

Here are 7 unbelievably refreshing fashion trends to try out this summer…

#1. Sunglasses

Perhaps, this is due to the season but we aren’t asking. The most important thing is that sunglasses are in for summer 2022 and all dandy guys agree. Whether you opt for clear frames, quirky shapes, or colored rims you’ll do well to finish off your look with a nice pair that aren’t just season-appropriate but also a style statement.

#2. Vests

This summer, stylish men are making a case for vests. From the runways to the streets, these men are stepping out while putting their biceps on show. On many occasions, vests are worn solo but in other instances, they are thrown over a polo or shirt to add a bit of fun to a look. Simply put, you can choose to wear yours whichever way you deem fit.

#3. Vibrant prints, especially florals

Thanks to the pandemic, the last summer seasons witnessed slow fashion and the flowers weren’t allowed to bloom. This year, however, prints (especially florals) are back and exploding and we are here for all of it. We predict that colorful, bold floral prints are going to steal the scene this season and you should prepare for it.

Whether you choose to wear them as a two-piece with a single tone like the ever-stylish Steph Curry, or you go all out in bright floral prints like Idris Elba, the secret is to break the florals with a single-toned piece (either inner polo or pants/shorts) in order to coordinate your look and avoid appearing too busy.

#4. Wide-leg pants

Wide-leg pants are rediscovering favor in fashion and in function. Fitted bottoms may still be mainstream, but from runway designers to fast fashion companies, looser silhouettes are dominating new collections.

Wide-leg pants are loved not only because of their trendiness but also because of the freedom of movement they offer. This summer, switch up your look from form-fitting trousers to wide-leg pants for that laid-back, yet stylish vibe.

#5. Strong collar shirts

This hot summer, strong collar shirts serve as a sturdy alternative to the breezy camp collar shirts that dominated last summer. This stylish men’s staple has been around forever and still has enough fuel for longevity in them. The proud collar adds a touch of something different to what might otherwise be a bland outfit. Whether for a beachside outing, or running personal errands, this option is a hit every time.

#6. Hotpants (short shorts)

Shorts are arguably the most diverse clothing item in a man’s wardrobe because of the various lengths available. However, summer 2022 is all for the hotpants — those shorts that are short! From Africa to the Americas, male celebrities have been spotted showing off their well-toned legs in them. It is safe to say that short shorts are making a comeback this summer and we totally love it.

#7. Slides and sandals

A big part of the age-old summer feeling is freeing your toes from the confines of covered shoes and giving them room to breathe. This is where slides and sandals come in. These footwears are very versatile as they go with almost every outfit and can instantly give your ensemble a whole new vibe, especially if extra-casual is what you’re aiming for. Come to think of it, isn’t that what summer is about?
