LA-based Fred Segal Man released a capsule collection aimed at updating and modernizing the basic men’s wardrobe staples: a denim jacket, a pair of jeans, a hoodie, and a t-shirt. The jeans are what got us excited though—the cropped, destroyed hem bottoms come in a vibrant neon yellow, making this an intense contrasting piece that works really well for summer. Any guys out there brave enough to wear neon jeans? We wanna hear from you!
Check out the full collection.

As with its full length counterpart, the denim short is a style essential because it can broadcast a classic, preppy look just as effectively as it can compliment an outfit that’s fierce and punk-rock inspired. Arriving in must-have renditions like floral, neon, and tie-dye, you can delve into trend-chasing with the knowledge that they won’t go out of style anytime soon. Even novelty denim has more longevity than other fabrics, so with that in mind, here are 12 selects from our personal wishlist.
