As we head into 2025, we look ahead to see what the new year will bring us and what we will leave behind in 2024. Of course, we make resolutions and renew hope that the “travel more, work less” or the “sleep more, worry less” staples will actually come to fruition. We make new commitments to financial responsibility. We don’t know about you, but there is little chance that any of those will differ for us because the calendar flips over. But we love a promising outlook for the new year, and this year’s style trends are one of the places we love to look. Stitch-Fix is a staple in our industry as it revolutionized the easy way to elevate your style. And with their reach with their clients, they have their finger on the pulse of what YOU want to see in the new year. The Stitch-Fix Style Forecast has dropped, and two things stuck out to us that will be huge in 2025.

Travel comfort

Maybe the “travel more, work less” thing is going to actually happen. One of the things you will see more of in 2025 is the explosion of travel wear. Of course, the industry isn’t new to this idea, as wrinkle-free shirts and stain-resistant pants have made travel a little easier for a while now. But this year, the trend will lean harder towards the elevated athleisure that started to emerge in 2024. You will see things like hybrid pants and luxury sneakers begin to appear at the airport. As a matter of fact, that may mean that you are going to start seeing fewer pajamas and slippers on the plane and more smart casual looks. We can only hope.

For the love of denim

Man in all denim outfit — The Manual

Welcome back to the Denim Dan look. 2025 will see the resurgence of the love of denim. We know what you are thinking: denim never went anywhere, we have always loved it, and jeans are one of your top wardrobe staples. We know, and we agree. But this year, we are going to see the all-denim look. Contrasting washes and colors will make up a deep denim ensemble that shows style, sophistication, and a laid-back and casual demeanor. Jeans, a denim button-up, and a jean jacket or overshirt will be the look of the transition months when it is too hot for coats and too cold for shorts. Wear them down with sneakers or dress them up with chelseas.

Buck Mason brings Rocky Mountain majesty back with new collaboration

Old mountain vintage meets new age workwear

Buck Mason Rocky Mountain Hero

Henleys, denim, waxed jackets, and anything you need for the ultimate man's wardrobe can likely be found within the collections of Buck Mason. It doesn't matter if you are the guy who likes to get out into the wilderness and needs some of the most rugged work wear you can find or if you are the guy who needs to find something more elevated like a houndstooth jacket or casual suit for a dinner date, Buck Mason usually has what you need, and they make them accessible for every man. Now they are looking for the guy who lives the Rocky Mountain life and needs the clothing to aid it. The Buck Mason x Rocky Mountain Featherbed collaboration is a deep dive into vintage Americana.
Brought to you by a love of vintage

The story of this collection begins with a man by the name of Cub Schaefer. He built a brand that catered to the ski bums, backpackers, and mountain loyalists who frequented his little majestic corner of the Tetons. His brand, Rocky Mountain Featherbed, blew up until it was forced to close its doors in the 1980s and resurrected by a Japanese brand who kept it going until Buck Mason brought it to the attention of those looking for that moment of majesty. This 17-piece collection brings sweaters, vests, knits, and coats to those looking for a mountain getaway or something to wear for the hard days on the ranch, factory, or any job requiring tough and durable garments.

Taylor Stitch’s Morse pant is the upgrade your chinos need

Add more depth to your chino wardrobe with something unique

One of the great things about chinos is that they are always in style and always appropriate, no matter the time of year. In the spring, they pair with a polo and light jacket; in the summer, they are a linen shirt's perfect companion; in the fall, they work well with your rugged boots and flannels; and in winter, they are a sweater's best friend. In short, it is always sweater season. But the downside of that is that chinos can get boring. The run-of-the-mill cotton chino can feel like the same old thing. Taylor Stitch is a company that likes to take the same old thing and make it new and better. That is why the Taylor Stitch Morse Pant is the upgrade your chino collection needs this winter.
Add depth and texture to a classic look

While your chinos are likely solid brushed cotton that keeps you in style year after year with their simplicity, the Morse Pant offers something a little different. The subtle herringbone pattern will help you stand out while keeping your style classic and toned down. Combining these with a textured shirt like a waffle henley or utility shirt gives the look a textured nuance that any man's wardrobe needs.

Iconic American bootmaker Nicks Boots branches out with new jackets

The work boot legend is keeping more than your feet warm

Nicks Boots Ranchman

For years, the legend of Nicks Boots has been growing exponentially. While they are known for their high-quality and durable boots, their legend grows in part due to disasters. Six of the twenty worst wildfires in the last decade have taken place in the American West, and Nicks Boots has been the choice of the men who fought them. The Hot Shot is the choice of the National Fire Protection Agency, which has adorned the feet of firefighters for years. They are also the choice for military, law enforcement, blue-collar workers, and men who love a rugged hobby boot. But they are not simply keeping your feet warm any longer. Launching Nicks Boots outerwear allows the company to keep you warm and dry whether you are in the field or escaping civilization for a weekend away.
Tough enough for work, stylish enough for play

There isn't a better companion to a rugged hobby boot or durable workboot than a coat to match it stylistically and in functionality. They offer three coats: The Patriot, The Patriot in leather, and The Ranchman. All three are part of a collaboration with Heat Straps, a company founded by two firefighter brothers. Just like the Hot Shot boot, if you want something tough and capable, get it from the people who spend their time needing to be capable in tough environments. With a statement like "They may not make them like they used to, but we do," Heat Straps offers the perfect expertise for a made-in-America jacket to compliment the best made-in-America boots.
