Spring is not over yet and there is still lots of rain on the way. Plus, we never know when the days will be warm or cool. Either way, these three items are a must this season, which should make this look for Spring 2019 your #ootd. Check out the Mugsy Jeans, Chelsea Matte Rain Boots and Casio solar chronograph watch below.
Denim is a staple.
Mugsy Jeans are one of my preferred brands for denim. They are designed for all types of guys because they fit so well. They are not tight around the crotch and feel like denim joggers sometimes. So how do we test them? Let’s just say you can assume a whole split position wearing them without them ripping.
I am not one to wear skinny really tight jeans since my legs are thick. However, I do like slim/fitted straight leg jeans. The fact that these jeans have stretch material and are made with lightweight, flexible denim that moves with you make each style a comfortable option, no matter the temps. Not too baggy, not too tight, they are just right. This is what makes Mugsy possible to wear anywhere and my favorite pair of jeans.
Mugsy launched a light indigo and even lighter gray for SS19. With every style retailing under $100, there’s no remorse when stocking up on seasonal options.
Rain Boots to keep feet dry!
So, it really is great when someone gives back to a community or helps out the poor in some way. This is exactly what founder and CEO Samuel Bistrian of Roma boots has done. Nine years, 28 countries and $2,953,186 worth of boots donated to children across the globe. With passion at the core, this man has come full circle in his mission of being an entrepreneur and successful business owner.
Growing up extremely poor, he realized how big the impact of rain boots are in a child’s life in poverty-stricken countries and from that, his business model was created. This business is Roma boots. The boots and brand have been around for a years but in January of this year they finally introduced a men’s line, creating rain boot options for the whole family. The two boots in the men’s line are CHELSEA MATTE and EPAGA MATTE BLACK MEN’S RAIN BOOTS.
Our favorite is the Chelsea Matte Black. What we liked the most about these boots is that they look like motorcycle boots. The neutral matte black color gives them a rugged look but most importantly is that the boots are completely waterproof, keeping the rain and water away and your feet dry.
We walked an entire day in them and they were cozy and also comfortable. I admit it they look so cool that I wear them even when it is not raining especially since they are easy to just slip on under jeans.
What are they made out of? Well they are eco-friendly/vegan boots made from natural rubber with traditional natural rubber outsole, quick dry knitted cotton lining and the footbed as a multi-layer cushioned sole.
So, for every pair of ROMA Boots sold, a brand new pair of rain boots are donated to a child living in poverty. For You. For All.
ROMA Boots can be found at boutiques across the U.S., Canada, and Australia. They are also available online at romaboots.com and Amazon.
What else does your Watch do?
Every man needs to own an impressive watch. It doesn’t have to cost millions or thousands and thousands of dollars. In fact, if it is functional, tells time and has other features then you want it.
To complete your Spring 2019 look we suggest you look into a 100-meter water resistance Casio Edifice EQB800 watch. This timepiece makes sure it is always telling the right time because it has a built-in antenna that receives standard time radio waves from 6 transmission stations worldwide (2 in Japan and 1 each in China, North America, the UK and Germany) and corrects the time automatically. It also adjusts its time setting four times a day according to a preset schedule. It performs the adjustment operation automatically as you go about your daily life, without any operation required by you.
Functions
However, if want the watch to have the same time as your smartphone then you can link them up via Bluetooth so the same times are displayed on both and never worry about day light savings, plus not only does the time get recognize in your current location but over 300 cities around the world. Smartphone linking also makes time zone setting quick and easy through the CASIO + app, which is just the things required for world travelers. If you need to know what time it is back home when traveling overseas then the DUAL DIAL WORLD TIME will keep you at ease because it shows the current time in multiple time zones so you always have the time zone information you need. A TARGET TIME INDICATOR counts down the final 10 seconds before timing of a lap starts, which provides engineers with valuable information for in-race pit stops.
What are some other cool things about this watch? Well you can always locate your phone by simply pressing a button on your watch so your phone can make a sound even if it is on silent mode. However, this function only works if your phone is near by so if you use a GPS phone tracker device or app you may still need it.
The Casio Edifice EQB800 also comes with Tough Solar, which is now so advanced that even the weakest light sources are sufficient to operate the watches. Tough Solar converts light to electric power to support stable operation of multiple functions. Adoption of a shadow-dispersing solar panel with excellent power-generation efficiency enables solar-powered operation of various functions through smartphone linkage.
How does it work? The solar cells are so small and inconspicuous that they can be integrated easily into every watch face design. CASIO’s solar field can also be manufactured in any color and design.
An accumulator in solar watches saves “superfluous” energy and releases it when the watch is in darkness. Solar watches are always equipped with an accumulator. The accumulator is charged automatically and does not require manual activation.
So, if you get your hands on this watch we suggest you keep the manual close by because you definitely need it to figure out all the functions the watch has.
In Conclusion
For Spring 2019 you need to make sure your closet has a pair of Mugsy Jeans, rain boots from Roma and that watch box has the Casio Edifice EQB800DB-1A. Now you are ready for travel, the rain and an event that comes your way because in the end all you need is a good pair of jeans, boots that are ready for an adventure and time to plan everything.
