Outdoorsman street style the upper echelon blog justin great 3Living in Colorado has increased my love for nature and the style opportunities it presents.  The outdoorsman look has always been about functionality and utility but thanks to brands like Ralph Lauren it has become an actual look where various pieces worn out in the wilderness conditions can come together to create awesome style.

It turns out you can wear these clothes outside of the outdoors scenario and can put together one of these nature outfits to wear indoors or at any other daily function and still achieve ultimate cool.

Here are a few things to consider…

Layers


Here is one of the keys to getting a good outdoorsman look going.  Layers help one to appear like they are ready to whether the elements.

Patterns/Colors


With out wearing plaids, native prints, khaki or denim of some sort you might as well hang up your wilderness goals.  This is a key way to distinguish your inner lumber jack boy-scout or rancher.  Make sure to try plaid that doesn’t look like early 2000’s Abercrombie and Fitch Shorts and more like Denim and Supply Ralph Laure.  One should also have that 1 really really good lumberjack shirt.

Accessories


From bracelets to boots and hats, these are the finishing touches that make the outfit complete.  Look up some pictures of outdoorsman occupations or enthusiasts and see the kind of accessories they wear.  You will find that these little details pack a powerful punch.
