2. The Puffer Jacket

You typically only really need one everyday winter coat. However, this year, it’s imperative to invest in an upgraded puffer coat too (or at least pull the one à la the early 2000s out from the back of your closet). Thanks to Demna Gvasalia’s Balenciaga, the once tired coat is a prerequisite for adding volumes to your style.    Shop here. 

3. The Long Johns

We’re gearing up for an intense winter and unless you’re one of our lucky friends who live in a warm state (don’t we all have one of those?), layering is imperative. Find here, a luxurious upgrade to a favorite from your formative years. Chose from a few options here : Shop here, Shop here, Shop here , Shop here

4. The (Thick) Oxford Shirt

No matter the of-the-season look, an oxford shirt is a non-negotiable. Pick up this staple, crafted from wool for a classic look (and much-needed insulation). Here are two of our top choices. Shop here. Shop here

5. The Weather Shoe

Sloshing through sleet and snow—and their dirty aftermath—is a winter inevitability. Choose an appropriate shoe with enough pizzazz to dare the cold (and all that comes with it) without negotiating style. Shop here, Shop here, Shop Here. 

6. The Accessories 

The key to a put together look is simplification. A set of cold-weather accessories lends a streamlining effect.
7. The Fisherman Knit

Be its Aran birthplace or popularity amongst menswear brands (see Ralph Lauren and Land’s End) there’s an air of sophistication and masculinity (if you’re into that sort of thing) in a plush fisherman knit. Shop here, Shop here

8. Selvage Denim

There’s nothing better than a pair of jeans that fits your body perfectly. You’ll have to wear your selvage denim in for that dynamite fit all through the season, but come spring, they’ll be ready for their second-skin debut. Shop Here, Shop here , Shop here
9. The Graphic Hoodie

Call it the Vetements effect: graphic hoodies have come full circle. No need for investment here, but a statement hoodie—preferably one with a devil-may-care attitude—is now a declaration of a fashion-forward sensibility.  Shop here,  Shop here, Shop here.
