We don’t care if you continue to wear white after this rapidly approaching federal holiday. But we do care that you make some wise investments in outerwear before the temperature falls, which is why we’re highlighting a swashbuckling suede aviator jacket by Todd Snyder, a Western-inspired Harrington jacket from Noah and the waxed fruits of a new collaboration between Barbour and Moncler. And for the cool nights to come, we’ll direct you towards a lightweight polo sweater via Jacquemus or a cotton-blend cable-knit as crafted by Fear of God Essentials. Labor away:
-
Jacquemus Le Polo Duci Polo Sweater
Image Credit: MyTheresa Made with long sleeves and a ribbed knit, this polo sweater from Jacquemus looks like a lock for fall-winter. But its surprising fabric composition—a blend of viscose, cotton, polyamide and a touch of stretch—sets it up for summer’s swan song.

Alex Mill Chino Field Pant

-
Noah Western Windbreaker
Image Credit: Noah Steve McQueen famously wore a Harrington jacket in several of his films—but, for obvious reasons, none of his Westerns. If he had, we imagine it would look something like this fresh interpretation from Noah, which is marked by a Western-style yoke and snap buttons.

Fear of God Essentials Oversized Cable-Knit Cotton-Blend Sweater
Image Credit: Mr Porter Everyone loves the rugged look of a cable-knit fisherman’s sweater, but not the typically coarse wool used to make it. This oversized version from Fear of God Essentials enjoys a softer touch thanks to its cotton blend.

Nick Fouquet Vincent Double-Breasted Overcoat
Image Credit: Farfetch If you want to rock a double-breasted overcoat this fall season and not look like an extra from Boardwalk Empire, look to this more contemporary take from Nick Fouquet. Cotton-blend fabric, narrow contrast lapels and side-entry pockets make it considerably more mellow.

House of Aama Denim Lumber Pants
Image Credit: Shopbop Were Paul Bunyan a real person and not a fictional folk hero, we imagine he’d be on a barstool somewhere wearing these “denim lumber pants” from House of Aama. Made in America from heavyweight, 100 percent cotton denim and cut with a high rise, wide leg and double pleats, they’re worthy of the rugged name.

Todd Snyder Italian Zip Aviator

The English Difference Beacon Merino Wool Cardigan
Image Credit: Garbstore The approach of colder weather brings a return to British knitwear in earthy, sensible tones, likely titled “oatmeal” or “charcoal.” The English Difference, however, has expressed its dissatisfaction with the status quo by knitting this merino cardigan from yarns dyed in eye-popping neon hues.

Barbour x Moncler 1952 Wight Wax Jacket
Image Credit: Barbour To mark its 70th birthday, Moncler has collaborated with Barbour to release a special capsule collection. An immediate favorite is this waxed jacket featuring a high-shine hooded gilet that can be detached for solo wear.

JW Anderson Jacquard Fleece Sweatpants
Image Credit: MyTheresa Hear that? It’s the sound of preppies everywhere busting out their duck-motif chinos, slippers, belts and more now that the weather is set to cool. Partake in their wearable waterfowl obsession on your own terms this season with these JW Anderson fleece sweatpants that feature a jacquard-knit flying duck motif.

Aimé Leon Dore Knit Hockey Jersey
Image Credit: Aimé Leon Dore There was a time when wearing hockey jerseys in non-hockey settings just meant that you were Kevin Smith. But we can see anyone donning this non-NHL-affiliated jersey from ALD, which is knit from 100 percent cotton in a prepay retro stripe.
-
CQP Plana Boot
Image Credit: CQP In the surest sign yet that the footwear landscape is changing, CQP—of minimalist Scandinavian sneaker fame—has introduced its first-ever chukka. The Plana is made from Italian suede and sits on a genuine crepe sole that’s conveniently shaped like a sneaker bottom.

Ralph Lauren Purple Label Kent Handmade Camel-Hair Topcoat
Image Credit: Ralph Lauren Ralph Lauren is rightly known for the vintage-inspired camel-hair polo coats it puts out every season, but this number from Purple Label takes a different tack. Featuring narrow lapels, a concealed button placket and a simple pair of flapped pockets with ticket, it’s a much sleeker approach to camel hair than we’re used to seeing from Uncle Ralph.
