Rains Coach Jacket

Aside from a few bags, Danish all-weather brand Rains only makes raincoats, which means that its craftsmen are really good at it. In fact, they can even make raincoats that don’t look like raincoats, but still act like raincoats. Seriously, check out this handsome green coach jacket for (water)proof. Buy Now: £75

Cos Cotton Shirt Jacket

Before it gets properly see-your-breath freezing and you need to bundle up, you can get away with just wearing a jacket. And this one from Cos is pretty near perfect. In AW17’s other key colour, yellow, it’s simple enough to layer under a coat and over a rollneck when things get a little chiller. Buy Now: £69

COS Cotton Shirt Jacket

Weekday Checked Jumper

Plaid isn’t just for flannel shirts and kilts, just ask Swedish super-brand Weekday, which has whipped up this cosy-yet-cool checked knit. It looks like something Kurt Cobain might have been wearing when he wrote ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’ – and that can never be a bad thing. Available soon at Weekday

Weekday Checked Jumper

Universal Works Baseball Cap

Whereas last year you probably invested in a woollen camel coat – and maybe layered it over a denim jacket – this season it’s all about wearing the shade head-to-toe. This cap from British brand Universal Works seems like a logical place to start. Buy Now: £50

Barbour x Wood Wood Barns Ness Crewneck

Wood Wood’s 15th birthday celebrations continue apace with another superb collaboration. This time it has hooked up with British heritage brand Barbour on a collection of wax jackets, knitwear and tongue-in-cheek T-shirts, including this jumper which has just enough pink to make the girls and boys wink. Buy Now: £128

The Lost Explorer Hemp And Chambray Shirt

Another week, another hot new brand arriving at Mr Porter. The Lost Explorer is the brainchild of adventurer, ecologist, author and general overachiever David de Rothschild. The environmentally friendly and all-round excellent collection includes this workwear-style shirt. Cut with a boxy shape and finished with an authentic worn-in look, we don’t think we’ve ever seen hemp look so good. Buy Now: £205

The Lost Explorer Hemp And Cotton-Blend Chambray Shirt

Uniqlo x JW Anderson Jumper

It’s yet another great collaboration from Uniqlo, which has this time enlisted the services of London boy J.W Anderson and his brilliantly bold style. The killer collection is packing some seriously colourful pieces, with stripes and checks drawn from every crayon in the box, but we reckon that this rich mossy cable knit will make your mates green with envy. Available 19 Sept: £39.90

Urban Outfitters x Nautica T-Shirt

Urban Outfitters has hopped into bed with fellow American brand Nautica for a six-piece mini collection. Launching this October, the collaboration features a cable knit V-neck jumper, a Breton top and several printed T-shirts. Most impressive is that it manages to make sailing look cool, which is no mean feat. Available soon at Urban Outfitters

H&M, with their perfect pleats and cool cuffed hems, are the absolute bomb (our apologies for that one). Buy Now: £39.99

H&M Wool-Blend Suit Trousers

Hugo Lace-Up Boots

Anyone would think the fashion world was an advert for the armed forces lately. If neither camo print nor moss green take your fancy, try a pair of military boots – like this pair from Hugo Boss’ little brother line, Hugo – on for size. As well as ticking the trend box, they’re also smart enough to pass any work roll call. Buy Now: £259.99

Belstaff x Sophnet Sweatshirt

The fruits of their collective loins include all-over print jackets, perfect parkas and achingly cool jersey separates, like this dual-branded camouflage sweatshirt. Buy Now: £195

Urbanears Plattan Wireless Headphones

We know you must be sick of hearing it, but you’re going to be wearing a lot of green this season. So you might want to invest in some headphones that’ll blend in. Wireless, with a built in microphone, and sleek AF, we reckon this pair from Urbanears is just the ticket. Buy Now: £79

River Island Big and Tall Borg Collar Jacket

Since its launch earlier this year, high-street hero River Island’s Big and Tall range has been a saving grace for guys who are, yep, you guessed it. An extension of the retailer’s core collection, it includes all of the best bits – like this Borg jacket – but in sizes up to 4XL and 38″ inside leg length. Great news for rugby and basketball players. Buy Now: £70

Woolrich Hiker Boot

King of the cosy coats Woolrich is now dipping its toe into the footwear world. Launching this week, the brand’s shoe collection is suitably outdoorsy, with all manner of technical elements and high-tech features. That’s all well and good, but what’s more important is that they would look just as good in a bar as they would up a mountain. Buy Now: £250

Adidas x Raf Simons Ozweego Trainers

Big, bulky (read: ‘ugly’) trainers – you know, the kind you would usually associate with dad jeans – are back on the scene. And the mini-trend is one that looks set to continue well into next summer, so you might as well invest in a pair now because you’ll have to swallow the pill at some point. Don’t blame us; we don’t make the rules. Buy Now: £300
