Winter is fast approaching. Now’s the time to start making sure you have everything you need in your wardrobe for chillier temperatures. The colder weather definitely won’t stop you from being stylish. Layering up doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice your personal style either. You can still dress as smartly or as casually as you like. But there are some key winter pieces that every man should have. They’ll help you look sharp anywhere, from the office to the pub. But your winter wardrobe needs to more than look good. It also has to keep you warm and dry all season.
At Least One Decent Coat

A lot of us have that one ratty coat that we wear for pottering about or running quick errands. You’re just popping to the shop or doing some gardening, so it doesn’t need to be smart. But every man needs to have a decent coat for the winter too. Whether it’s super smart or kind of casual, it needs to complete any winter outfit. There are plenty of styles to explore, from an insulating Moncler gilet to sleek wool coats or even leather jackets. Whatever you choose, it should be both stylish and practical. And if you want to splash out, a couple of different coats for different occasions is a good idea too.
Smart Winter Boots
One thing it’s easy to forget about in the winter is protecting your feet. You might be wearing dress shoes to the office. Or maybe you prefer to wear your favourite pair of trainers until they’re falling apart. But when it’s cold and wet, the last thing you want is for your feet to be chilly and damp too. A good pair of winter boots is vital. That goes double if you’re someone who spends a lot of time outdoors or walks a lot. Choose a smart pair so they’re suitable for everywhere from the office to the pub.
Cosy Knitwear
From Chris Evans in Knives Out to the vintage jumpers in Banshees of Inisherin, there have been some notable on-screen knitwear pieces in recent years. And if you’ve been admiring these cosy pullovers and beautiful cable knits, it’s time to get on board with the trend. Knitwear in different weights is a must-have for any man’s winter wardrobe. Use them for layering so you can stay warm through the season. Go for a cardigan if you want to push the boat out.
A Scarf to Match Your Coat
Once you’re all wrapped up, you can start thinking about accessories. A scarf is essential, not just to keep your neck warm but often to fill the space left by your coat. When you’re looking at scarves, choose something that goes with your coat and any other accessories you might be wearing regularly. Pick a soft woollen scarf if you’re looking for something that looks and feels great.
