Quiksilver Denim Chore Jacket
No matter how hard they’re trending, some pieces of menswear will always be fashion Marmite. (We’re looking at you, roll necks.) The chore jacket, however, is not one of them. Cut from indigo-dyed denim for a lived-in wash, this Quiksilver take on the workwear staple is more comparable to fashion pizza. And who doesn’t like pizza? Exactly. Buy Now: £105.00
Saucony Shadow 5000 Gold Rush
The date is 1849. The place: Northern California.

Topman White And Black Shirt
The grunge look, popularised by late Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain, is officially back on the style main stage. But that doesn’t mean growing your hair out and wearing baggy cardigans.

These neatly tapered, hard-wearing examples from Californian boardsport brand Volcom come with a reasonable price tag and a handy pocket solely for your smartphone. Buy Now: £61.99

Björn Borg Aidan Tights
Men in tights are all over your gym like it’s pantomime season, but for good reason. First things first, they aid mobility, but they also compress your muscles to reduce fatigue and improve recovery time. Helpfully, sportswear brand Björn Borg also makes pairs that wick moisture away from your skin, so you remain dry and comfortable. Well, as comfortable as you can be in the squat rack. Buy Now: £44.00
Country Of Origin Green Crew Neck
The old saying ‘you get what you pay for’ is true for several things, particularly late-night kebabs and, in this case, knitwear. Case in point: this green crew neck by South London label Country Of Origin, which is rendered in 100 per cent warmer-than-a-hot-tub lambswool. Slot it over a button-down and under an overcoat for winter style made easy. Buy Now: £130.00
Norman Walsh x Lexus Fuji Red Trainers
