Winter is the best time of year when it comes to dressing up.  In the cold months, menswear knows no bounds.  With the holidays around the corner, now’s a better time than ever to grab some great items to upgrade the rest of your winter wardrobe.  With so many options out there, we thought we’d narrow things down. Here are our top picks to add to your closet this winter.

MA-1 from Alpha Industries

Reminiscent of the traditional bomber, the MA 1 bomber from Alpha Industries hearkens back to the past while bringing a modern flair.  Made of nylon, the jacket is waterproof and perfect for staying stylish during unpredictable weather.

Camel Peacoat from Noose and Monkey 

The men’s coat has often been associated with stuffy, out of date men’s fashion.  However, don’t listen to the naysayers. Coats are a classic piece that’s not going anywhere anytime soon.  The camel peacoat from Noose and Monkey plays with the traditional coat shape by slimming down the fit and adding in some unconventional color.
