The Madras Shorts
Vintage 1946 Indian Patch Short
$95; buy now at amazon.com
For a dose of Cape Cod, try these. A classic. The wash makes the fabric feel already broken-in. And if you these don't pique your interest, maybe one of the 35 best pairs of shorts for summer will.

The Cotton/Linen Blazer
Scotch & Soda Cotton/Linen Blazer in Navy
$245; buy now at amazon.com

4
The Swim Short
Original Penguin Earl Box 3 Inch Swim Short

5
The No-Show Socks
8BESS Gift No Show Socks (6 Pack)
Starting at $7; buy now at amazon.com
This offering may appear to be basic, but if you are going sockless, stock up on these. Not only are they crafted from premium cotton, their design keeps them firmly in place, perfect for the 30 pairs of slip-ons you'll be wearing with your summer outfits.
6
The Moccasins
Lacoste Leather Piloter
$159.95; buy now at amazon.com
Is it time for the moccasin to come back? Yes. This souped-up driving loafer sports a rubber sole to give it endurance. Be sure you're wearing these when you're behind the wheel.
7
The Varsity Bomber Jacket
Fred Perry Tipper Bomber Jacket in Ivy
$150; buy now at amazon.com
You need this for chilled down nights. This one is especially great because it's all cotton (many others are nylon) and it has buttoned pockets to keep things secure.

The ultimate military-inspired accessory—Army/Navy meets high tech. In olive, this belt rounds out any summer outfits.
