Harry Rosen, late, great Canadian menswear aficionado, once said, “The gentleman prefers fall.” Because fall is the season for guys who want to look and feel good, it’s time to update your wardrobe with menswear pieces that look masculine, stylish, and perfect for this season.
Brown or Grey Blazer
This classic, masculine combination gives you a casual look you can wear pretty much anywhere.
Leather Jacket
The leather jacket is a classic staple for men in either black or brown. Make sure that the leather jacket fits nice and snugly in the shoulders, arms, and torso.
Top Coat
Topcoat is one of the most handsome pieces of men’s outerwear of all time. Even though an overcoat is outerwear, opt for one that fits similarly to a blazer to maintain a more sophisticated silhouette.
Peacoat
The peacoat is a classic men’s outerwear and a must-own piece for winter but can also come in hand in the fall.
Trench Coat
Trench coats are another classic outwear with a more mature look. Throw your trench coat over a suit to protect it from the rain.
Shawl Collar Cardigan Sweater
Look for a shawl collar sweater that fits well. When it gets cooler, you can use one of the coats mentioned above over the top to keep the shawl collar straight and rocking through winter.
Chambray/Denim Shirt
Looking for something to layer under your shawl collar sweater when the weather gets colder? The texture on a denim shirt is perfect for fall regardless if there’s a sweater involved or not.
Long-Sleeve Henley
Henley is known as the preferred shirt of Hollywood leading men and even the regular guys alike. A Henley is some sort of a mix of a basic polo and tee.
Rugby Shirts
Rugby shirts are one of the men’s wardrobe pieces that are the best ways to incorporate athleticwear into your everyday wear. A rugby shirt can be a great alternative to a hoodie as it gives more style as well as comfort.
Merino Wool Sweater
A merino wool sweater is a classic men’s staple that’s when layered under a topcoat, or a blazer can look way better than it does on its own. This sweater comes in two varieties, crew neck, which men call normal, while v-neck, well, it’s self-explanatory already.
Dark Blue Jeans
A pair of trim-fitting dark blue jeans isn’t only a fall standard; it’s the gold standard. A couple of good pairs of dark blue jeans are a good investment for your fall wardrobe, and you can wear them stylishly all fall and winter long.
Thin Waled Corduroys
The key when wearing corduroy pants is to keep the wale, that ribbing that defines corduroy, nice and thin. What makes it look perfect for fall is the added texture to the cords, while the extra weight keeps your legs warm well into winter.
Dark Beige Khakis
Opt for darker and more rustic-colored khakis like red, brown, and orange. Pair them with jackets or sweaters in deep shades like forest green or navy blue.
