8 STYLISH MENS APRONS

By Matt Bell | August 10, 2012 | Runway, Style & Grooming

Mens aprons mean business. They’re the SUV’s of tool belts, the raincoats of kitchen wear, the battle armor of many household chores. For this, we love good stylish mens aprons—especially those that mix form with function. Aprons are worn year round, but in August and September, when you’re out on the barbecue and getting your pad ready for fall, an apron can really get a lot of play. Here’s our 8 favorite you won’t mind wearing in front of some company.

1. Field Aesthetic

Makers Apron

Handmade from water resistant, re-purposed military tent canvas is naturally distressed so you don't have to feel all precious wearing it. Solid brass hardware and adjustable leather neck and waist strap keep it durable.

2. H.W Carter and Sons

Carpenter Apron - Indigo

A selvedge duck canvas work apron is perfectly fine to match with your favorite pair of, well, selvedge denim, but as so, you it'll match almost anything you own.

3. Relique

Vintage Men's French metal butcher's apron

French bakers once only wore chain mail. Who knew? Its against the law now and probably, you shouldn't wear this unless you're really looking to make statement.

4. Best Made

Hickory Stripe Apron

A hickory stripe looks best when stained with hot sauce, grime and grease.

This apron doesn't mess around with straps around the legs to keep things nice and neat.
