11 Men’s Summer 2025 Fashion Trends Worth Trying
From coastal classics to modern must-haves, here’s what to wear this summer — and where to shop it.
If you're anything like me, summer style means looking effortless without trying too hard. Whether you're packing for a European getaway, lounging poolside, or heading to a rooftop happy hour, these trends will keep you looking sharp from June through Labor Day.
I’ve pulled together 11 of my favorite men’s summer fashion trends for 2025 — and linked pieces I’m personally loving and wearing over on ShopMy.
1. Camp Collar Shirts
Easy, breezy, and quietly stylish.
The Cuban-inspired silhouette is back in a big way—think relaxed, open collars, soft fabrics, and just the right amount of retro flair. Pair with linen trousers or swim shorts for a laid-back look that reads “resort chic” not “tourist trap.”

2. Sweater Polos
For when a t-shirt feels too casual.
The knit polo is summer’s answer to transitional dressing. Lightweight and breathable with a slightly structured shape, it’s polished enough for a date night but still casual enough for a beach bar.

3. Knit Tank Tops
Muscle tanks, but elevated.
Swap your gym tanks for knit versions with texture and style. Worn solo or under a loose shirt, they’re the perfect way to stay cool and fashion-forward.
4. Short Shorts
Show a little thigh—it’s 2025.
5-inch (or shorter) shorts are the move this summer. Tailored versions work with a camp shirt or sweater polo, while athletic styles are great for weekends.

5. Linen Trousers
Light, breathable, and surprisingly versatile.
Perfect for dinners al fresco or breezy strolls by the water. Go for neutral shades like oatmeal, stone, or navy
👉 Shop linen trousers I swear by
6. Patterned Swimwear
Time to ditch the plain navy trunks.
This summer, it’s all about bold prints—florals, abstracts, retro vibes. Printed swimwear that doubles as shorts = packing made easy.
👉 Shop patterned swimwear I love
7. Leather Sandals
Upgrade your flip-flops.
A sleek pair of leather sandals can totally shift your summer look. The goal: comfortable enough to walk in, stylish enough to dress up.
8. Retro Sneakers
Old-school kicks, new-season cool.
Classic low-tops add a vintage edge to your look. Wear with linen, denim, or even tailored shorts
👉 Shop retro sneakers I would wear on repeat
9. Raffia & Canvas Totes
Function meets fashion.
These totes go everywhere — beach, city, or airport. Go neutral or striped, and bonus if it holds a laptop and a bottle of rosé.

10. Fresh Summer Fragrances
Because the right scent finishes the look.
Summer calls for light, crisp scents. Look for citrus, neroli, bergamot — anything that smells like vacation in a bottle.
11. Classic Sunglasses
Shades that never go out of style.
A good pair of sunnies is a non-negotiable. Aviators, wayfarers, or something round — just keep it clean and neutral.
