The calendar finally agrees with what you’ve known in your heart for some time: It’s fall. Properly mark the occasion with such autumnal opulence as a melton double-breasted blazer from Drake’s, limited-edition down vests by Rocky Mountain Featherbed and Billy Reid’s Western-tinged take on a moleskin shirt jacket. That is, of course, just a small sampling of the fall abundance that awaits you below. Enjoy responsibly.

Howlin’ Will O The Wisp Cardigan
Image Credit: Garbstore Few things are as disarming as a pink cardigan made from brushed Scottish wool. Lean into its won’t-you-be-my-neighbor appeal with crisp chinos and a white OCBD, or take a page from Kurt Cobain by wearing it over a frayed band t-shirt and beat-up denim.

Adieu Paris Type 5 Two-Tone Loafers

Closed Crew Neck Sweater
Image Credit: Shopbop This sweater from Closed looks as if you took an existing argyle knit and then zoomed in by 350 percent—and then remade it in a fuzzy alpaca-wool-blend. Wear it above forest green cords and chukka boots for maximum early-fall satisfaction.

Billy Reid Moleskin Mo Shirt Jacket
Image Credit: Billy Reid We’re accustomed to seeing moleskin turn up this time each year as a pant or maybe a chore coat, but not a Western-inspired shirt jacket. Billy Reid has subverted our expectations with the Mo, which is cut from lightweight moleskin and finished with flapped chest pockets and burnished brass snaps.

Ikiji Belted Robe Coat in Wool Boucle
Image Credit: No Man Walks Alone This belted, button-free coat from Ikiji runs perilously close to bathrobe territory but remains on the right side of the outerwear ledger. A lot of that has to do with its fabric, a substantial boucle made from a wool-alpaca blend.

Oak Street Bootmakers Sportsmoc in Chromexcel
Image Credit: Oak Street Bootmakers The newly introduced “sports mocs” from Oak Street Bootmakers are more than ready to take on leaf-peeping forest treks, thanks to their lugged Cortina outsoles.
