Summer break is barely behind us, but our eyes are already set on the fall and winter season. What can men expect during the dark, chilly days when it comes to stylish outfits? For those in need of inspiration, we’ve listed the most striking men’s fashion trends for the autumn and winter of 2025/2026:
What are the colors for winter 2025/2026?
This season is all about a lighter color palette with robust earth and nature tones such as wood ash, cream, and racing green. These provide a strong foundation from which you can add luxurious accent shades like wine red, charcoal grey, and brownie to give your outfit extra character and a personal touch. Below is a selection of the key seasonal colors:
1. Overshirts are the new blazers
The overshirt continues to gain ground. While it was previously mainly a casual outer layer, more and more men are now wearing it as a stylish alternative to the blazer for more formal occasions. No wonder, since the designs have become more refined and smarter. Think wool overshirts, calm solid colors, subtle patterns, and luxurious fabrics like passetta (imitation suede). A big advantage: you can wear an overshirt either open or closed, depending on the occasion.
2. We wear playful men’s sweaters
This winter, sweaters take on a handcrafted look. Chunkier knit textures, cable patterns, and soft materials instantly create a cozy appearance. The variety of collars also stands out: from shawl collars that provide extra warmth to crew-zip for a relaxed style, Riva collars for refinement, and the classic fisherman’s sweater with a deep-zip collar. This way, you can wear your sweater from high-necked and protective to an open V-neck for milder days.
3. Shirts are streamlined and stylish
After seasons full of playful prints and patterns, shirts are now making a minimalist comeback. Plain shirts look clean, stylish, and can be endlessly combined with accessories. This season at Suitable, you’ll find new shades in our popular Sorona shirt line, made from natural, comfortable materials. Perfect for those who appreciate timelessness and practicality.
4. Smart-casual is the way to go
This is the style of the season: polished with a casual twist. It’s versatile, confident, and suitable for both a day at the office and a night out. For example, pair a turtleneck or merino wool sweater with chinos and standout Veja sneakers. Opt for neutral colors, good fits, and subtle accessories. The principle here is: less is more.
5. We wear jackets with more versatility
The unpredictable autumn weather calls for flexible men’s jackets. Bomber jackets remain popular thanks to their warmth, freedom of movement, and lightweight design. We’re also seeing more winter coats with removable linings, such as the Suitable Jack Parka, allowing you to easily adapt your jacket to the weather. For those who prefer a timeless style, there’s also a growing selection of classic overcoats.
