For this fall, martini’s aren’t the only place you might be seeing olive(s).  Olive is back in the spotlight for many reasons.  The military angle is certainly strong this fall, as is all things hunting, camping and camouflage.  And we have been wearing plaids and ginghams for quite some time now, so let’s call Olive the perfect palate cleanser.

We rounded up some of our favorite olive fall pieces from a variety of brands we like:

Recommended Videos

Coach – Quilted with a brown suede shooting patch on one shoulder, has a stow-away hood, zippered closures at the cuffs, and shirttail hem to keep you protected from the wind. This sporty jacket is tailor fit and has a bit of dressed-up hunting vibe.

Aether – Lightweight pullover hoodie made from 2-layer duo fold cotton jersey. This fabric was originally developed by the U.S. Army for their Extended Cold Weather Clothing System. It combines softness with thermal properties making it great alone, or as a layering piece.

Howe – This jersey short sleeve t-shirt emblazoned with RPBLC CLFRNA. Great it’s own, or perfect for a layering piece, for all you West Coast lovers.

Burkman Bros. – With ribbed waistband and cuff, this woven cotton style is a cross between a fatigue and an athletic pant. It’s two front hand pockets and back patch pockets, and zip fly and button closure, make it perfect for any weekend.

G.H. Bass – With a suede upper and sturdy non-marking sole, it’s a shoe that takes you from work to weekends. The Pasadena Buc is a rugged oxford, but can still be worn like a dressed-down dress shoe for your favorite pair of denim.

Cole Haan– The Greenwich Messenger bag is made of soft Italian leather, and is very multi-functional. With two external pockets (one with a magnetic closure) and three interior pockets. One of inside pockets is for your laptop, a second pocket for files, and the third, a zip closure, for your secret stash.

Skagen – Seamlessly blending natural elements with modern design, Skagen, designed in Denmark, features a jet-black steel dial connected with an olive leather strap.

The new Hermès watch is a fine representation of the cosmos.

The dial of the new Hermès Arceau Petite Lune can send you straight to space, thanks to the high-quality details and finishes. At the 10 o’clock denotation, a moon phase adds to the whole look and complements other elements featured on the dial. It expands into an eclipse, which is accentuated by diamonds to reflect light stylishly.

The winter is in full swing and that means the cold weather is starting to wear on you. It is for us, too. The days are shorter, the nights are colder, and we're just over it. Once the holiday season ends, the next thing to look forward to is the spring. That means we're just counting the days until we can break out our swimsuits again. Until then, we can make good use of the time by picking up some of the winter shirts for men.

We can use them for a little bit of motivation. Some excitement to get us through to Opening Day of the baseball season. That's why we looked at some of our favorite brands and put together some of our favorite sweaters, button-ups, and polos for the cold weather. Here's to a couple more months until the sunshine.
