The Best Men’s Flannel Shirts for the Season

If there’s one item of clothing that I stole the most from boyfriends of years past, it was flannel shirts. They’re comfortable, soft, and perfect to just throw on. Flannels are staples in many men’s wardrobes so picking the right one shouldn’t be taken lightly. Find the right shape, silhouette, and material and get a flannel shirt that you’ll never want to take off (or risk being stolen by a needy partner).

Men’s High Sierra Shirt

Not only is this flannel lined with a cotton thermal lining to keep you warm, it also has pockets for basically everything from your phone to a beer. It’s soft and completely machine washable, though you may want to take your time to empty out all of the special pockets before tossing it into the machine. Their women’s style is one of my personal favorites.

Scotch Plaid Flannel Shirt

One of L.L.Bean’s best-selling items, this classic flannel has been around for more than 80 years. It’s made from 100% cotton and woven in Portugal. And the “Scotch” in the name isn’t just for show: all patterns are matched to historical tartans in the Scottish registry.
