ESQUIRE:10 Spring Jackets for the New Season Ahead

Just because it's raining doesn't mean that you can't wear a hooded jacket that protects from the elements (cotton with nylon helps) while also ensuring that you look fantastic. When it comes to the later, a trim silhouette, some bright color, and smart design details — contrasting zippers, patch pockets, plaid linings — will help bring your spring top layer into stylish territory. Our picks for the new pieces that accomplish this best are offered up for your persual in the slideshow below, and just a click or two away to buy for yourself...

ESQUIRE: New Pair of Shades to Keep in Mind for Spring

Though the weather outside your window may suggest otherwise, it is about to be sunglasses season — which is why Mosley Tribes just re-launched their website. If you click that link, you'll see they are highlighting four young artists in Los Angeles, the brand's home base, a city that seems to require shades even when it isn't sunny outside.

Of the four, the one to watch is Indio Downey, that kid you see above. The son of Robert Downey, Jr., he's an 18-year-old guitar player who's gunning to become the next Jimmy Page. He also happens to be wearing Mosley Tribes' new Stafford frames, which we're unveiling exclusively on The Style Blog today. They'll be available next month in stores and online with polarized lenses for $245. Which gives you just a few weeks to start learning a few chords, even if you prefer to never be as hip as someone who responds to the name "Indio."

GQ:Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore

An Audemars Piguet watch is always a show stopper and one of the ultimates in watch making and design. During this past New York Fashion Week the brand cleverly collaborated with the Michael Bastian show and sent some of their key new styles down the runway. The watch paired with the look shown here is my idea of a solid statement. This Royal Oak diver watch itself strikes a fine balance of luxury and deep sea functionality to create a sporty and sophisticated timepiece. Pair that with a cool weekend casual fleece sweatpant and sleek nylon jacket, as Bastian showed on the runway, and your timing couldn't be better to get in this sport luxe look of the moment.

$18,900, for more information visit audemarspiguet.com

A closer look at the watch this way...

GQ:Armando Cabral AC 19 Sneakers

You've seen Armando Cabral in practically every men's show, but have you peeped the model-slash-entrepreneur's footwear collection? We swung by his presentation earlier this month at an intimate basement space just outside of the Meatpacking District, and dude is bringing the goods: perfect cap-toe combat boots, suede oxfords, and these. We love the concept of a dressed-up sneaker, and the gray flannel makes these kicks suitable (blatant pun intended) for everything but a gala. Look for 'em in June.

Hi-tops $360, Low-tops $335.

GQ:Denim & Supply Ralph Lauren Spring 2012

We've already given you a quick peek at Denim & Supply Ralph Lauren's Spring 2012 collection and now comes a larger look, above, at some of the pieces hitting Denim & Supply's online store and Macy's shelves at this very moment. Inspired by both Cape Cod and Baja, the line is equal parts nautical adventurer and laid-back bohemian and makes use of washed, rugged fabrics like chambray and bleached fleece punched up by graphic ikat and bandana prints. And just like that serape-stripe field jacket, this season we're all about a rugged-meets-relaxed style.

GQ:Dior Homme 171S Foldable Sunglasses

The brand that led the march for guys to trim the fat from their suits is taking its sleek, less-is-more aesthetic to its sunglasses, crafting a pair of foldable frames that do away with any unnecessary bulk. Merging an 80's aviator style with modern materials that make the glasses supremely lightweight, the shades fold up to the size of one lens to be stowed, well, anywhere really. Available in classic black, both shiny and modern matte, silver and an attention-grabbing red, look for the sunglasses to show up in stores next month.

$395, available in March. For more information visit dior.com
