—01. Ergonomic fit.

Words

This Stone Island Shadow Project shirt is incredible. It is the perfect mix of classical styling meeting technical modernity. While the material and fit, like all Shadow Project pieces, are pretty cutting edge, the style itself harkens back to workwear of the past.

—02. High-density cotton.

Words

While the green of these cotton trousers, made by Japanese brand Aran, might not be the obvious choice for a pair of chinos, they would make for a great addition to your closet if you've already got the staples covered. The dark green would be a very easy match with the fall colour palette and the relaxed fit looks classic regardless of which seasonal shade you might be wearing on top.

Words

While everyone, who cares to at least, needs a leather belt in both black and brown, another good option is a casual belt that is not made of leather at all. This example from Topo Designs is made in Colorado from 100% nylon webbing, and can be cut to any length.

—01. Reassembled in Japan.

Words

The Rebuild by Needles collection has grown this fall to include a couple of new shirt styles. The Ribbon Flannel was the first in the series and while it's one I quite like, it may be a little wild for some people. The Rebuild Western Shirt, however, might be a more wearable option, and it still offers the unique patchwork look the brand has become known for.
