Men's Winter Style: 5 Smart Casual Outfits for Cold Canadian Days
Many men treat winter as the season to grab the warmest jacket and stop thinking about style. But with a few well-chosen pieces, you can stay warm and still look sharp, whether you are heading to the office, meeting friends or spending a weekend outdoors.
Below are five easy smart casual outfits for cold Canadian days. Each one is built from simple pieces you can mix and match all season long.
Outfit 1: The classic aviator look
An aviator jacket instantly adds character to a simple outfit. The Men's Aviator Jacket in vegan leather has a warm sherpa lining and collar that keep the cold out.
Wear it with: the Men's Crew Neck Knit Sweater, black stretch jeans and Chelsea boots. Rugged, warm and effortlessly cool.
Outfit 2: Smart for the office
For work, a long overcoat is the most elegant choice. The Men's Overcoat with double collar covers your suit or office outfit and looks polished on the way to work.
Wear it with: a fine knit such as the Men's Half-Zip Sweater over a shirt, tailored dress trousers and faux leather loafers.
Style tip: a half-zip sweater is the perfect bridge between casual and formal. Wear it with a collared shirt for work, or with a T-shirt on the weekend.
Outfit 3: Weekend corduroy
Corduroy is back, and it is perfect for winter: soft, warm and full of texture. The Men's Padded Corduroy Jacket has a stand collar and extra padding for cold days, while the Men's Vintage Corduroy Cargo Jacket gives a more relaxed, utility look.
Wear it with: a hooded knit, light wash slim fit jeans and casual boots.
Outfit 4: Warm and casual denim
A denim jacket is a wardrobe classic, but usually too thin for winter. The Men's Fleece-Lined Denim Jacket solves that with a warm fleece lining, so you can wear your favourite look all year round.
Wear it with: the Men's Hooded Knit Cardigan or a hoodie underneath, cotton cargo joggers and trail sneakers. Comfortable enough for a full day out.
Outfit 5: Ready for the coldest days
When the temperature really drops, it is time for serious warmth. The Men's Quilted Puffer Jacket with stand collar or the Men's Hooded Puffer Jacket keep you warm on the coldest mornings.
Wear it with: a chunky knit, tactical cargo trousers and insulated snow boots. For extra warmth, add the Men's Thermal Vest as a layer under a lighter jacket.
Three rules for men's winter style
- Keep the colours simple. Black, navy, grey, olive and brown are easy to combine and always look good.
- Get the fit right. A jacket that fits well looks better than an expensive one that is too big. Check the size chart on each product page.
- Invest in your shoes. Good boots finish every outfit and keep your feet warm and dry.
Build your winter wardrobe
With one or two good jackets, a few knits, a pair of jeans, smart trousers and the right boots, you can create dozens of winter outfits. Start with the basics and add a statement piece, like an aviator or corduroy jacket, to make your look your own.
