Founder’s Favourites: Phil’s Top Spring Picks
As the days grow longer and the sun sits a little higher in the sky, Phil, our founder here at &SONS, shares his go-to pieces for Spring. Known for championing timeless style and hardworking garments, Phil’s favourites this season are all about versatility, longevity, and effortless style - clothing that looks as good at a weekend barbecue as it does on a spontaneous road trip.
From easy layering pieces to transitional staples, these are the items Phil is reaching for right now, and why they’ve earned a place in his wardrobe.
The Sunday Shirt
“Guys need garments that can go both ways - dressed up or down without trying too hard. That’s what the Sunday Shirt does.”
The Sunday Shirt is the ultimate transitional layer. Lightweight enough for warm Spring afternoons, yet structured enough for cooler evenings, this piece nails the smart-casual sweet spot.
Phil loves them for their relaxed tailoring and breathable fabrics, available in a range of earthy hues, it’s made to match your personality, whether you're styling it with denim for an evening out or throwing it over a tee for slow Sunday mornings.
Style Tip: Roll the sleeves and pair it with selvedge denim and desert boots for an effortless Spring weekend look.

The Switchback Jeans
“Spring’s for exploring - and you need jeans that can keep up. These are built for the unpredictable path.”
Made for movement and crafted with intention, the Switchback Jeans are your new go-anywhere, do-anything denim. With a relaxed fit and rugged, lived-in feel, these jeans are designed to take on Spring adventures - from misty morning hikes to coffee runs in town.
Phil loves their broken-in texture and faded wash, which only gets better with age. Think of them as a blank canvas for your everyday style - and a foundation for building any look.
Style Tip: Cuff them at the ankle and wear them with low-top sneakers or boots. Layer with a Henley and a chore jacket for the full &SONS aesthetic.
The Carver Jacket
“The Carver doesn’t need an intro, but every Spring wardrobe needs one.”
A cornerstone of the &SONS collection, the Carver Jacket is everything a Spring outer layer should be: lightweight, durable, and endlessly wearable. Inspired by traditional workwear but cut with modern lines, it adds just the right amount of structure to any outfit.
Whether thrown over a tee or layered with a shirt on cooler days, the Carver is built for function and style. Phil reaches for it when he wants to add polish without losing ease, and it’s one of those pieces that always gets compliments.
Style Tip: Go monochrome underneath for a minimal, modern look - or mix textures for a more rugged, heritage feel.

The Elder Henley + Dean Polo
“Comfort is non-negotiable, but it has to look sharp. These two do both.”
Knitted from soft, breathable cotton, the Dean Polo brings classic menswear into the now. Its tailored fit and subtle texture give it structure, while the open collar keeps things relaxed. Phil swears by it for Spring because it’s easy to dress up with trousers or tone down with shorts.
Meanwhile, the Elder Henley is that just-right layer for in-between weather. Its vintage athletic feel, durable construction and lived-in softness make it perfect for everyday wear - and it pairs seamlessly with everything else on this list.
Style Tip: Layer the Henley under the Carver with rolled jeans and boots for a timeless workwear look. Wear the Dean Polo solo with chinos or shorts and loafers for smarter days out.
Why These Picks?
Phil’s selections this season are built on one idea: seasonal longevity. These pieces are chosen not just for how they look today, but how they’ll wear in and evolve with you. Garments that transition with the weather and your lifestyle, from early Spring right through to Autumn.
Spring is about shedding layers and leaning into ease and these &SONS staples are made to carry you through the season and beyond.
