The Best New Menswear Pieces To Buy Right Now

Blood Brother Tower Printed Appliqué Hoodie

Applying its signature skyline motif to the chest of a bold red hoodie, Blood Brother has just won itself a spot in every self-respecting streetwear guru’s wardrobe – for the next week at least. Available at Harrods, priced £125.

Levi’s 501 Skinny

The latest addition to Levi’s iconic 501 family, the 501 skinny was inspired by the demand for customised slimmer-fitting denim. Sitting below the waist for a more flattering fit, the slimmer leg makes them perfect pairing with battered Converse for a 2017 take on Julian Casablancas. Available at Levis, priced £85.

Vans Authentic Chino Stretch Pants

Chinos are an everyday wardrobe staple, but this Authentic pair from Vans has more features than meets the eye. Designed to fit in with a skating lifestyle, they use the Californian brand’s unique Sturdy Stretch fabric, which means you can kickflip to your heart’s content without getting saggy knees. Available at Vans, priced £65.

Baracuta G10 Modern Classic Jacket

Given the title ‘Britain’s Best Rainwear’, the G10 has a lot to live up to. Luckily, Baracuta’s updated version doesn’t disappoint; made in England from a lightweight water-resistant fabric and featuring a classic umbrella back-vent to keep you dry no matter what winter throws at you. Available at Farfetch, priced £429.

Adam Lippes Long-Sleeved Grey T-shirt

“My uniform is dark jeans, the perfect T-shirt, and a quality knit,” says designer Adam Lippes. If you’re of the Lippes school of getting dressed in the morning, the perfect T-shirt is probably the hardest bit to get right. As a man of his word, the New Yorker has created this long-sleeved pima cotton example, comfortable enough for layering but smart enough to be worn on its own. Available at Adam Lippes, priced £115.

Reclaimed Vintage Leather Watch With Pink Dial

It can be hard to find a bargain timepiece that doesn’t look like it dropped out of a Lucky Bag. This Reclaimed Vintage watch won’t break the bank but the high-end colour scheme keeps it looking like you know your tourbillons. Just get your story straight for when your mate with the Audemars enquires. Available at Farfetch, priced £30.

Spalwart Court Nubuck Sneakers

As the quest for authenticity continues, brands need to bring out the big guns to get us impressed. These retro-inspired Court sneakers from Swedish label Spalwart are crafted using original moulds and machinery from the 1960s, but rendered in sleek modern fabrics. The grey nubuck pair will team best with your denim, and thanks to the smooth leather lining you can go sock-free (when summer finally arrives). Available at Spalwart, priced £250.
