What Goes in a Men’s Winter Capsule Wardrobe?
What are the essentials for a men’s winter capsule wardrobe?
Start with a long-sleeve tee, a crew-neck knit, an overshirt, dark jeans, an outer jacket and everyday shoes. Choose pieces you can combine in at least two ways. Add weatherproof footwear or a rain shell according to the conditions where you live.
Six pieces to start with
Use the L/S Como Luxe Tee - White as a neutral base, then choose the Aurelle Cable Knit Sweater - Brown and Mercer Overshirt - Black as two different middle layers. The Carpenter Jeans - Dark Blue work with both. Finish with the Meribel Suede Jacket - Brown for dry days and the Vortex Runner - Triple Black for casual outfits.
Three outfits from the same wardrobe
For a weekend coffee, wear the white tee and Mercer with the jeans and trainers. For a casual dinner, switch to the brown knit under the Meribel and wear the same jeans if the venue allows denim. For an indoor day, wear the white tee under the knit and keep the jacket by the door for trips out.
What should you buy first?
Look at the outfits you already repeat. If you have dark jeans and good shoes, start with a middle layer that works under your current coat. If your layers are sorted, choose outerwear for the weather you get most often. A checked layer such as the Moritz Check Overshirt - Brown/White fits once the rest of the wardrobe is easy to pair.
