Men's date night outfit from Ring

We Just Launched Ring: 6 Men's Date Night Outfits We'd Wear Ourselves

Hey guys, welcome to Ring.

We started Ring for a simple reason. Most guys have plans, like a dinner reservation, drinks with friends or a first date, and then stand in front of the closet with nothing that feels right. Dressing up shouldn't mean a suit, and looking good shouldn't cost a paycheck.

So we built a small collection of shirts, pants and jackets made for the night out. The fits are easy, the lines are clean and the prices are fair. Everything works together, so you can mix pieces and always end up with an outfit.

To get you started, here are six of our favorite combos.

1. The First Dinner Date

Classic Cotton Button-Down in Light Blue + Knit Straight-Leg Trousers in Navy
About $60 for both

This is the safest outfit for a first date and it still looks sharp. The light blue shirt is crisp without being stiff, and navy trousers keep the outfit put together. Tuck the shirt in and you're ready for a nice restaurant. Untuck it and it works for somewhere more relaxed.

Level it up: throw on the Vintage Stand-Collar Jacket in Khaki for cooler nights.

2. The Rooftop Summer Night

Band Collar Resort Shirt in White + Linen Drawstring Trousers in Khaki
About $70 for both

Warm night, rooftop drinks, maybe a sunset. Linen keeps you cool, and the band collar looks a little more grown up than a regular shirt collar. Roll the sleeves once and leave the top button open.

3. Drinks, Bars and Live Music

Faux Leather Biker Jacket in Black + Everyday Casual Shirt in Dark Gray + Washed Vintage Jeans in Gray
About $120 for the full look

This is the going out outfit. A black leather style jacket over a simple shirt and washed jeans has a bit of edge without trying too hard. It's perfect for a bar, a concert or a late night out with friends.

4. The Cold Weather Dinner

Relaxed Wool Coat in Beige + Retro Long-Sleeve Shirt in Black + Draped Wide-Leg Trousers in Black
About $145 for the full look

When it's cold out, the coat does all the work. A beige coat over an all black outfit underneath looks expensive, and it's the kind of outfit people remember. Wear it for a holiday dinner, a winter date or any night you want to look your best.

5. The Easy Weekend Date

Color-Block Camp Collar Shirt in Sky Blue + Button-Detail Linen Pants in White
About $70 for both

Coffee, a gallery, a walk around town. This outfit is relaxed and a little bit fun. The color block shirt adds some personality, and white linen pants keep it light and summery.

6. Looking Good on a Budget

Everyday Casual Shirt in Navy + Straight-Leg Work Trousers in Black
Under $50 for both

Proof that you don't have to spend much to look like you made an effort. A dark shirt with black trousers is clean and simple, and it works almost anywhere. If you're building a going out wardrobe from scratch, start here.

A Few Simple Rules We Follow

  1. Fit beats everything. Check the Size & Fit table on each product page before you order.
  2. Keep the colors simple. One standout piece per outfit is plenty.
  3. A jacket finishes the look. It's the fastest way to make an outfit look intentional.
  4. Tuck it for dinner, untuck it for drinks.
