Black, white, and everything in-between: SuitSupply sticks to the grayscale for the winter

Gray suiting, black ready to wear, and white overcoats have us loving winter

The winter is set to be cold and dreary like usual. The temperature drops, the days are shorter, and we can generally see a little less color. SuitSupply doubled down on the colors of winter when they added bright white cashmere to their fall and winter collection earlier this season. Now, one of the best suit companies online is sticking to that trend with as little color as possible going into the winter months. The SuitSupply Winter Colors consist of black and white, with some gray in between. If you are looking for versatile options that go with anything, a capsule look that will get you through the cold months, or simply want to keep it nice and simple moving into 2025, this collection will serve you well.

Gray suiting to white overcoats

Before you start to think that the blacks, whites, and grays are nothing but a boring lack of color, take a look at the offerings SuitSupply has before writing that off. The mark of a great brand isn’t bright and flashy garments; it is the ability to elevate anything with impeccable tailoring and the right looks. The Sand Overcoat is a twist on the British Paletot or Guard’s Coat. Making it white lets you stand out and make a statement without needing to have something garish. The Mid-Gray Relaxed Fit Roma Suit is another piece that, while seemingly basic, offers a more updated looser fit than we have grown accustomed to over the past two decades and will elevate your suit wardrobe with something to be worn all year round.

2024 PAKA Impact report shows that they’re succeeding at making a difference
Proof is in the pudding for PAKA
PAKA weavers working

PAKA is more than just peak performance wear utilizing alpaca fibers. It is a passion project dedicated to making a difference in our closets and in Peru, where they source all of their alpaca. They still use the same weavers from the same village they did when the whole thing started with the original hoodie. They are working on becoming even more sustainable and are always on the hunt for how they can get better on the garment stage and behind the scenes. Every once in a while, we get confirmation that we're on the right path, and they did with the PAKA Impact Report for 2024.

“Our partners in Peru are the foundation of everything we do,” commented Kris Cody, Founder and CEO of PAKA. “Since founding PAKA on a weaver’s rooftop in 2017, our mission has been the same goal: to bring you closer to the people and animals behind your clothing. We believe real impact starts at the source. As we step into our next chapter, I’m beyond proud to share PAKA’s biggest milestone yet: the creation of our very own nonprofit, the PAKA Foundation. This entity will be tasked with meaningfully and directly allocating 1% of our revenue directly back to the Peruvian communities where all our products are born.”

GAP changed the game with sweats by making them incognito
Go where you want in sweatpants and never get a bad look
Sweatpant Jean suit

There are specific dress codes men follow. Things you wear to work can be classified as business professional, wearing a suit and tie daily. Or maybe you work in a place that is a little more laid back, and you wear business casual. Either way, an elevated version of your wardrobe is reserved for the office. On the casual side, you have streetwear and athleisure, which you wear outside the house. Jeans span these looks and seem to fit everywhere because they are a classic staple. Sweatpants, however, are somewhere between gym wear and loungewear. Despite their comfort and our love of being as relaxed as possible, they aren't exactly appropriate to be worn out of the house while you run errands or get social. That is where the Gap Sweatpant Jeans are attempting to make a change.
Jeans that really aren't

We all love a good pair of jeans; some are made for comfort. But a pair of sweatpants, especially Gap's heavyweight and ultra cozy sweatpants, made to resemble a pair of jeans, changes that game. You can go out on the town looking elevated while incognito comfortable. What's better? They added a denim jacket to the look so you can have an entire sweatsuit look while looking like you put more effort into the ensemble. We wouldn't suggest this as a date look, but hitting the grocery store, the park, or even a movie is now the comfiest thing you can do with your weekend.

Every January and June, industry leaders and experts mingle with the fans and the sartorially obsessed when they descend on one of the world's fashion capitals, Florence, Italy. Four days at a time, the city is turned into one of the most important trade shows, Pitti Uomo, while the menswear world looks on to see what will be huge in the coming year. Preceding the fashion week schedules, you can get a sneak peek at what brands will be doing and what you can expect the style world to turn to. Of course, it has been a show specifically for men, but other aspects like kids, textiles, and fragrances also get in on the mix. This year, Hockerty is getting in on the Pitti Uomo 2025 fun with some vintage throwbacks right at home with this year's fashion trends.
Looks of the past

When you attend Pitti Uomo, you will see many fun things. There are bright colors, intricate patterns, and people dressed to the nines. Everywhere, from street fashion to tailored garments, are on full display. No matter your aesthetic, there is a corner of Pitti Uomo where you can feel welcomed and seen. Hockerty doubled down on the vintage trends that dominate the fashion world right now with everything from flannels to accessories. The big three things showcased with their looks giving the vibe were overcoats draped over men's suits, giving us a solid Al Capone callback, dark but rich colors, and flat caps and fedoras. These are fantastic looks, and Hockerty put on a masterclass for updating old styles in new ways. Weaving yesterday's classic looks into today's modern world is what vintage style is all about.
