Menswear for winter 2026-2027 leans on deep brown and aubergine, cozy layers and bold checks, based on everything we’ve seen from men’s fashion week.
Below are the seven winter style trends for men to try this season.

- Biggest themes: deep colors, polished layers and tracksuits
- Key colors: brown, aubergine, emerald and red
- Easy upgrade: an overshirt over a sweater
- Practical tip: add one standout piece to an otherwise neutral outfit
Deep Brown and Aubergine Lead the Palette
There’s one color we’re seeing everywhere for this season, and it’s brown. Wear it in both warm and cool brown shades, and try accenting it with aubergine and emerald green for a pop of bold color.
We suggest using one rich piece and keeping everything else in neutrals like beige or off-white.

The Overshirt Is the Layer to Own
If you don’t have a go-to overshirt in your winter ensemble, now is the perfect time to invest in one. It’ll work indoors over a tee, outdoors as a light jacket or even under a parka on those extra chilly winter days.
For the winter 2026-2027 season, look for herringbone, corduroy or fleece versions to stand out in the crowd.

High Collars Replace the Shirt and Tie
Roll necks, mock necks and half-zips give a polished look without a collar and tie this season.
A fine-knit merino roll neck feels sleek, while a cable-knit mock neck feels more rugged. Try out both and see which style best suits your everyday vibe.

Tartan and Checks Get Bigger
Checks are returning this winter, this time at bigger scales and with bolder contrast, whether we’re talking about coats, suits or casual looks.
And yes, you’re fully allowed to mix patterns. Just make sure that you change the scale so they don’t compete.

Tracksuits Move Into Winter Style
Once limited to sportswear, matching jacket-and-trouser sets showed up at Louis Vuitton, AMI and Willy Chavarria at fashion week, and we don’t think they’re going away anytime soon.
Try pairing one with clean sneakers or leather boots to dress it up, choosing a quiet color like navy or charcoal if you want it to read more polished.

Faux Fur Makes a Statement
This year, designers were big on faux fur on oversized coats and giant collars, including Saint Laurent and Hermès.
We like a simple fur collar or lining, as it adds texture without going into full costume territory.

Head-to-Toe Leather Gets Tailored
Saint Laurent, Dior and Sacai runways all featured leather sets in tailored cuts, highlighting a bold new way to wear the material for head to toe.
Not feeling so daring? If the full set is too much, you can always start with a fitted leather jacket over dark denim.

Which Winter Style Trend Should You Try?
An overshirt and a rich brown or aubergine piece are the easiest places to start, since they pair with jeans and boots you probably already own.
If you want something bolder, tartan and tracksuits stand out without much effort.
Pick one trend, keep the rest simple and build from there.
