Wardrobe Essentials for Fall Weather
Blustery, chilly fall weather is incoming around the country, so it’s high time to take stock of your wardrobe and figure out what articles you need to buy before things get too cold. If you’re not sure what wardrobe essentials for fall whether you need to purchase, read on. We’ll explore some of the most important fall articles for men one by one.
Hoodies
Hoodies are menswear staples throughout autumn. They’re comfortable and casual, and they come with attached hoods so you can keep your head and ears warm even while walking around at night or on a cooler fall day.
Fortunately, there’s probably a hoodie or two for you no matter what your favorite colors are or what your style preferences might be. Take this Double Knit Slub Hoodie from Vintage 1946 – it’s available in a handful of masculine colors, and it’s available in several sizes with double chest pockets and functional drawstrings for added practicality. What’s not to like?
Flannels
Flannels are popular menswear items for fall, and for good reason. They're available in many colors, are thick enough to provide good insulation and warmth, and are comfortable when engaging in outdoor activities or lounging on the couch to watch the game.
Be sure to pick up a few flannels for your fall wardrobe if you haven't already. The right flannels will be light enough that you can comfortably wear them with T-shirts, but also thick enough that you feel comfortable when heading outdoors without an extra jacket.
It might be wise to combine a few of your favorite flannels with tough jackets, however. Sooner or later, the fall will bring colder temperatures, and you’ll want an easy to slip on layer to combine with your flannels.
For example, this Full-Zip Puffer Jacket is a perfect partner for a flannel and T-shirt – it's layered, which is always advantageous for fall, but it's also warm and thick enough to protect you against inclement weather and cold temperatures without needing anything aside from a cap and thin gloves.
Tough Trousers
Every guy needs a few sets of tough trousers come fall. Why? Many of the best outdoor activities are best enjoyed in the autumn months, so you’ll want some durable trousers that can take a beating to accompany you.
These can be thick jeans, tough chinos or khakis, or cargo pants depending on your preferences. Cargo pants are particularly good if you are something of an outdoorsman or are planning on doing a lot of camping this fall, alongside hiking and other outdoor excursions. Durable denim pants can also be appropriate if you want something more suitable for indoor activities.
Fall-Ready Athletic Articles
Don’t forget athletic articles. Lots of guys love to exercise outdoors in the fall since the cool temperatures ensure that you won't overheat or become excessively sweaty the same way you often feel in the summer.
