With summer gone and autumn making way for the chill, it’s time to upgrade your wardrobe to be fit for Winter. This winter, let’s change the way we think; the cold season isn’t all about being bundled up, at least if fashion trends are anything to go by. One of the most essential items in a man’s wardrobe are shirts, and as you put your summer clothes away, here are the five must-have winter shirts that let you beat the chill in style.

The Chambray

Most men live in their shirts, whether it’s home or office. And nothing beats the chill like a chambray. It makes for a stylish and functional addition to your winter essentials once you’re done adding the foundation shirts. You can pair it with denims or chinos or wool trousers in keeping with your winter style. Go for a navy checked or a printed Chambray to warm you up this winter.

Flannel Shirt

What’s the point talking of winter shirts without a mention of flannel? Flannel shirts keep you snug and warm, while letting you make an impressive statement. They are soft, comfy, and versatile, letting you pair them with all kinds of bottomwear and outerwear. They are also great for layering. This winter, a tartan flannel shirt with Sherpa lining or one with a detachable hood would keep you stylish and cosy. Not to mention layered right these Flannel Shirts For Men give a dapper street look as well.

The Overshirt

A go-to piece for many during autumn/winter, the overshirt can become your best friend during those chilly months. When you’re looking at menswear options that will allow you to layer up in style without appearing stuffed, the overshirt is your best bet. Prep up your off-duty outfit by layering with an overshirt. A pea coat or trench coat and a roll neck is a great pairing to go with the warm and cosy overshirt.

The Plaid Shirt

In winter, worsted wool shirts not only last long and keep you warm, but also look stylish. Worsted wool is the best fabric for tailoring, and of late, plaid shirts made from this fabric are a runway favourite. A wool plaid shirt in navy or grey is very versatile and can be worn with everything from with slim-fit, semi-formal trousers for a sharp, suave look to cotton twill trousers or denims for a more casual look.

Men’s winter wardrobe doesn’t have to be boring or dull. With latest men’s fashion trends and timeless styles making a comeback, this winter is all set to be different from the other seasons. Add these shirts to your repertoire for a stylish and functional statement this cold season.
