Spring/Summer Prep for Men: A Guide to Not Looking Like a Hot Mess

Spring/Summer Prep for Men: A Guide to Not Looking Like a Hot Mess

Ah, spring and summer—the seasons of sunshine, BBQs, and questionable fashion choices. As the snow melts (or the heat cranks up, depending on where you are in Canada or the U.S.), it’s time to shed those winter layers and embrace the warmer months with style. But let’s be real: not all of us are born ready for this transition. Fear not, gents! This guide will help you prep for spring/summer like a pro, with a few laughs along the way. Plus, I’ll introduce you to the ultimate wardrobe upgrade: the Asterixexx Atelier Spring/Summer Collection. Let’s dive in!

Tips to Note: Don’t Be That Guy

1. Layer Like a Boss, Not Like a Toddler

Spring weather is unpredictable. One minute it’s sunny, the next it’s raining sideways. The key? Light, breathable layers. Think linen shirts, lightweight jackets, and—wait for it—our Asterixexx tribal pants. They’re versatile, stylish, and perfect for transitioning from a breezy morning to a scorching afternoon. 

2. Sunscreen Is Your Best Friend

Sunscreen is non-negotiable unless you want to resemble a lobster at your next BBQ. And no, that SPF 5 you found in your gym bag from 2017 doesn’t count. 

3. Hydrate or Die-drate

Water is your lifeline. Invest in a sleek reusable water bottle (bonus points if it matches your outfit) and sip like your life depends on it. Because, well, it does. 

4. Footwear Matters 

Flip-flops are great for the beach but are not a universal summer shoe. Upgrade to espadrilles, loafers, or sleek sneakers. Your feet (and everyone around you) will thank you. 


The No-Dos: Avoid These Like a Bad Sunburn

1. Don’t Wear Socks with Sandals

Just don’t. This isn’t 2003, and you’re not a dad at a backyard BBQ (unless you are, in which case, we’ll let it slide). 

2. Don’t Overdo the Cologne 

A little goes a long way. You want to smell like a summer breeze, not a walking air freshener. 

3. Don’t Skip the Hat 

A good hat is both functional and fashionable. But please, leave the fedora at home. We’re aiming for “chill summer vibes,” not “m’lady.” Why not try our Unapologetic Snapback...Make a statement without throwing shades.

4. Don’t Forget to Groom 

Spring and summer are not the times to let your beard or hair go wild. Trim, tidy, and keep it fresh. Trust me, your Tinder matches will notice. 

Things to Avoid: The Spring/Summer Faux Pas

1. Avoid Overly Tight Clothes

Tight clothes + summer heat = sweat stains. Nobody wants that. Opt for relaxed fits, like our Asterixexx baggy tribal pants which are designed to keep you cool and comfortable. 


2. Avoid Dark Colors in Direct Sun

Black is slimming, but it’s also a heat magnet. Embrace lighter shades and bold patterns. Our tribal collection has you covered—literally. 

3. Avoid Skipping the Sunglasses

Squinting is not a good look. Invest in a pair of UV-protected shades. Bonus: they make you look instantly cooler.
