Men’s winter guide 2 (Pants, Shoes and Accessories)
IN this week’s article we continue with men’s winter gear (must haves). The last couple of days have been freezing, and we want to help our fellow brothers keep warm and look fab this winter.
Its winter season, men are trying to be warm and still feel comfortable and look stylish but that doesn’t mean you should be stuck in sweatpants and boot cut jeans all winter. In fact, the cold season permits the men to experiment with different pant styles and fabrics. Pant fabrics and textures are definitely underplayed when it comes to men’s winter wardrobes.
Likely the cornerstone of every man’s trouser ensemble, denim hasn’t changed much since it was introduced more than a century ago. Nowadays, jeans have evolved into a countless number of cuts, materials, colours. For winter, darker washes are definitely the fashionable choice. Lighter washes in winter aren’t unheard of, but it’s definitely easier to pair darker denim with other, more neutral winter colours. You definitely don’t need to go overboard with jeans in your wardrobe. I’d aim for solid pairs in dark indigo and black.
The sheer versatility of chinos is exceptional; whether its business casual with a pair of oxfords or paired with boots or sneakers, chinos have you covered. Similarly to jeans, khakis come in varying cuts and styles, so choosing the right pair for you may be a trial-and-error type of situation till you get it right.
Depending on your climate, investing in a dependable pair of wool pants can be a power move. They’re incredibly warm, and provide some awesome texture to your outfits. Wool pants pair perfectly with your favourite boots, dress shoes, or even some sneakers. When a regular pair of chinos simply isn’t warm enough, do opt for wool pants.
There are some who believe white shoes should be strictly worn in the warmer months. White, minimalist sneakers absolutely have a place in winter fashion. They’re clean, simple and can really help balance out an otherwise overly-dark outfit.
It’s always wise to diversify your wardrobe, especially when it comes to your shoes. Having a pair of comfortable sneakers for long days full of walking can be a lifesaver, so opt for a shoe with a comfortable, supportive sole.
Even if you don’t need to dress up often, it’s essential to at least have the means of doing so. It isn’t totally necessary to drop a ton of cash on a really nice dress shoe, either. A simple Bass oxford or wingtip will do the job just fine if you only dress up occasionally. However, if you’re in the market for a nicer dress shoe, do your research before committing to a nice dress shoe; a quality pair can last you well over a decade with proper care.
They’re comfortable (at least they should be), warm, and build character with each wear. During the winter season that’s when the boots get to come out and shine.
Well, a watch isn’t totally an essential, but it can really add a noticeable aspect to your look, even if it’s a cheap one. I’d recommend a modest, white-dialed watch with a brown leather strap. They’re inexpensive and easily alter the appearance of your look with little effort.
A lot of guys wear whatever socks are cheapest and come in the largest quantity; you should get a pair of wool socks. Seriously though, these are a total game changer, especially for cold weather. If you’re prone to smelly, sweaty socks and feet, you may want to give the natural odour and moisture-repelling properties of wool socks a try.
Alright, most people already have one of these and it isn’t necessary to go out and purchase something because everyone is doing so. That being said men bags are a great accessory and add a bit of style to the entire look.
There you go men. Have a warm and fashionable winter.-Additional information from Online sources. Email: rutendochidawanyika3@gmail.com
