Madewell Men’s Fall Collection Has All Your New Favorites

When we zero in on a brand we love, we tend to really, really dial things in. And when it comes to the best clothing brands for men, there’s never enough research (and wish list-crafting) to be done. That’s certainly the case when it comes to Madewell Men’s, the menswear-focused offshoot of the wildly popular Madewell women’s line. Madewell Men’s recently launched its first-ever fall collection, blessing us with rugged and refined picks aplenty. We’ve been fans of the brand’s slim denim and stylish sneakers, and this entirely new seasonal offering is no different — think of our favorite picks below as upgrades from the already-excellent line of brand basics.

If you thought you had enough flannel shirts, think again. This richly crafted Madewell Men’s flannel takes the traditional windowpane pattern and explodes it into an oversized design in Golden Pecan plaid. In short, this is the perfect flannel to wear either on its own, layered underneath a navy herringbone blazer, or atop your favorite henley.

If there’s one thing you can count on from the new Madewell Men’s fall offering, it’s that the brand’s denim will be high quality. Take these garment-dyed slim jeans in a fall-friendly color, for example. The slim fit is impeccable, and the midweight cotton-stretch blend means these will do well on the road or at the office.

If your initial inclination is that you could put together one heck of a stylish outfit with only gear from Madewell Men’s, well, you’d be exactly right. Madewell basics are hard to top, especially when they’re as well-made as this laidback, effortlessly cool garment-dyed long-sleeve tee.

Even when it comes to the best men’s winter accessories, Madewell Men’s has you all sorted out. This fitted beanie is both on-trend and functional, and the Ashen Sand color should play nicely off essentials like garment-dyed tees and jeans (as seen above, as luck would have it!).

Last but not least: Even the smallest possible style details shouldn’t be left to chance. That’s why it’s worth investing in the kind quality socks you can wear all fall and winter with your favorite boots (and again, Madewell Men’s has you covered from head-to-toe).

Converse might have released your favorite new slip-on sneaker
Converse, GOLF WANG release slip-on sneaker
black hairy converse slip on sneakers

Although Converse’s parent company, Nike, has recently seen a rise in remixes and rereleases, the sneaker line has tended to avoid the noise. Along with GOLF WANG, the label created by musician Tyler, the Creator, Converse is breaking out their archival designs for a new slip-on sneaker. While slip-on sneakers haven’t seen much trend due to the rise of slim lace-up sneakers, the collaboration between the two brands will turn some heads. While the partnership is a first between the two, the modern and stylish designs seem like a much longer collaboration created them. With the use of exciting colors and textures, these slip-on designs have the potential to rival your favorite casual sneakers. As Converse looks to expand its audience and renovate its look, this collaboration is a welcome sign for future designs that appeal to a new audience.

WAY OF MAN gives men the two things they all want
Get your denim and your spirits four times a year easier than ever
WAY OF MAN pouring

Men only want two things, and they aren't what you are thinking. They are way more awesome. A man has two best friends, a great pair of denim, and the perfect spirit to make a great cocktail. You have a few boxes to check off as you look for the denim you want to call your go-to for the rest of your life. A great fit, a dark color, and the kind of durability that will last a lifetime. You also have a few boxes to check off when you shop for your go-to whiskey. A dark but clear color, a complex and layered aroma, and a well-balanced flavor. While these two endeavors seem like separate ventures, one company is looking to do all the work for you. The WAY OF MAN subscription service wants to send you the best of both every three months.
Raw Denim x Rare Whiskey

The mission of both industries always focuses on the masterful attention to detail needed to create top-shelf whiskey and the best denim on the market. The WAY OF MAN believes that no one has ever brought these two things together and that they have one thing in common: Stories. The best stories begin gathered around friends and family, often while wearing your favorite jeans and having a great cocktail. This subscription service attempts to bring them both together as much as possible. There is a waitlist right now, but once you sign up for it, your stories are only a few months away.

New York Men’s Day debut: HOLD NYC goes alpine sexy in new collection
comfort glamour elevated for the lodge
HOLD NYC Hero

Finding the perfect Apres ski look is a task that every mountain sports nut has figured out. The move from the mountain to the lodge takes you from extreme sport to casual relaxation and maybe a little luxury. While you will mostly find the skiers and snowboarders dropping off their gear and shedding the layers in place of their flannels, jackets, and technical function style, there is an opportunity for some elevation that HOLD NYC is looking to capitalize on in 2025. The HOLD NYC NYMD debut brings an element of crossover between functional luxury and the element of glamour for their first run at New York Men's Day.
Bringing glamour to the mountain

The mountain lodge may not be the first place you think of when you think of glamour. While the lodge is the place for the perfect Apres ski looks that scream comfort and relaxation, there is a bit of etiquette and thought that goes into it. Glamour is the same, and therefore, there is a connection between the two that is perfect for someone like Holden Akerley, designer of HOLD NYC, to find the pathway between the two. He does that at New York Men's Day with the use of casual elements built into more elevated styles. From suiting using shorts to skirts with fleece tops, there is something for everyone in this collection that is classified as genderless. You shouldn't expect anything less than bold excellence from a former designer for Ralph Lauren, and Holden delivered that at New York Fashion Week.
