Pistolero is known for being a benchmark in the work boot and cowboy boot world. Durabilty is a strong point in both of these fields, so you know the quality has to be there, but Pistolero also implements more modern styles like bluchers, cap-toes, and lace up boots which makes it one of the coolest heritage shoe brands on the market. Each shoe is hand made in Mexico using old school techniques, so expect nothing less than amazing from their offerings next season. Note: Pistolero has no website, but its shoes are available at retaliers like Need Supply. 

Montana is home of hiking, and the home of Epperson Mountaineering bags. The brand uses super durable cordura nylon and leather to make bags, and have over 30 years of success in the business to show for it. It just so happens that Epperson makes bags that both last a lifetime and are super stylish as well, so you get the best of both worlds.

No brand is more synonymous with the outdoors than Patagonia. For its spring/summer 2014 collection, Patagonia's traditional fleece and hiking jackets took a turn towards fashion and uses Japanese influences like slimmer pant silhouettes and long tunic-style jackets.

Denmark has some of the dopest streetwear out there right now, and Rascals is continuing that tradition. The brand offers staple items all guys need in the warmer months, and their uniquely fresh tees, tanks, and shorts are all kept at a super affordable price.

Ours offers the coolest selection of tees, wovens, and shorts for fashion-forward surfer dudes, but is now expanding its collection with the land lover in mind. Next season, expect cool button-down shirts and walk-shorts—gear that you can wear on and off the sand. Ours is another brand without a website, but you can find its goods at retailers like Karmaloop and Swell.

Design duo Chris Mossom and Sasha Rushworth created Garderobe because, no matter where they looked, they couldn't find the clothes they were looking for. The two created the label with the intention of producing a standard blueprint for the perfect wardrobe, and they already converted us into believers.

Combining African prints from Abidjan in the Ivory Coast with refined Parisian tailoring may seem like a bit of a head-scratcher, but Laurence Airline pulls it off like no one else could. The label consciously creates a conversation between the two cultures through clothing, which means every pattern, design, and detail has an impressive amount of thought behind it. Each resulting item from this compelling combo are both well-informed and simply awesome to wear, but we'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

London is at the center of all of the current and emerging trends in menswear, and Kit Neale is a designer that's at the city's forefront of style. Known for his masterful use of prints, patterns, and bold color, his new collection stays true to his design DNA. Look out for his gear on the backs of some of your favorite celebrities, and in your favorite shops next year.

Historic British heritage brand Liberty of London is known for its iconic printed and pattern fabrics. Recently, the label has not only extended their menswear collection, but is now offering its wares to retailers outside of the UK. This is huge news for its cult following, and from the looks of it, this brand is about to gain a whole new fan base as dudes are exposed to its offerings.

cychoi is a heavy-hitter hailing from Korea, and immediately came out swinging at the  Capsule tradeshow this year. The label's streamlined collection of jackets, pants, and shorts that deserve to be a part of every stylish guy's wardrobe, and each dude should definitely cop at least one pair of their dope footwear, as well.
