Winter dictates its own rules in clothing: when the thermometer drops below zero and even more so below -10, warmth and comfort come to the forefront. However, this is no reason to stop looking stylish! Winter clothes can also decorate, favor designers are increasingly remembering the real needs of man in the cold and produce things that look great and at the same time no less effectively protect from the cold.
In men’s fashion there are different options, depending on what style of clothing you prefer: classic or casual. Today we’ll look at a few popular models that will help you look spectacular and stay warm at the same time.
Layering is a fashion trend that has been characteristic of every season for several years now. It consists of wearing several less warm things instead of one warm one, some of which can be removed indoors or during the day, for example: shirt + sweater + thin quilted down jacket + jacket + scarf. Have you visualized what we’re talking about? This example, of course, is suitable for fall or spring, but there are options for winter too. For example, a demi-seasonal coat or jacket can be turned into winter outerwear by wearing an insulated down vest underneath. This thin looking and almost weightless thing actually warms perfectly, and its collar, especially if it is a contrasting color, will help to refresh the image.
Важный момент: для минусовой температуры обязательно выбирайте жилет с утеплителем из натурального пуха, так как искусственный синтепон гораздо слабее удерживает тепло. Весной эта деталь гардероба превратится в самостоятельную верхнюю одежду и еще не раз пригодится вам.
Men’s coats
Another secret of elegance in the cold season is, of course, a coat. We have already written about how to choose this closet item and what its varieties are. A coat is undoubtedly the best choice if you wear a business suit and have to adhere to the dress code.
Do you find coats too light? Pay attention to models with a lining (possibly removable). In addition, accessories play an important role: scarf, hat or cap, gloves. For winter, try to choose these closet items from natural materials, such as wool, so they will both decorate and keep warm.
Here are a few options of actual models of coats from the collections of the current season.

Stylish winter jackets
If you live in a cold climate and do a lot of walking, of course, an elegant coat may not be enough. Winter jackets remain the universal means of protection from cold and snow, and they can look stylish if you follow some rules.
For work, choose long down jackets with a restrained design. It is better to refuse bulky patches, logos of sports brands and deliberately bright colors (this is all more appropriate at a ski resort). On top of a suit or sweater with a shirt, it is best to wear a jacket of neutral color (in addition to black it can be dark blue, gray, beige, etc.) and, of course, good quality. Pay attention to famous brands that manage to combine warmth and style: Barbour, Canada Goose, Napapijri.
If you dress in casual style, an interesting solution can be a winter parka. This model (especially in the classic version — with a «fish tail») has not come off the fashion catwalks for a long time and remains popular among young people and not only.

Men’s sheepskin coats
Sheepskin coats made of natural fur perfectly warm, even in severe frost, and the variety of models allows you to wear them to the office and on vacation. An additional plus of this piece of clothing is that after several years of almost complete oblivion, it has regained its position in the world of fashion. To look stylish and relevant, choose sheepskin coats, sewn in the form of a bomber or kosuhi or elongated models with enough lush fur. Also in recent collections there are often unusual combinations of colors, for example, light leather and black fur.
Conclusion
Winter is no reason to give up on stylish looks, especially since stores offer a wide selection of both beautiful and warm outerwear. From an elegant coat to a super trendy parka, choose something that fits your lifestyle and suits your taste. And of course, don’t forget the spectacular accessories!
