5 Men's Fashion Trends to use in 2020

FASHION TREND FOR MEN IN 2020

Everyone should try!!!!

Loosening Up

Form-hugging fits had been on their way out for a while but 2019 was the year that really finished them off. From baggy denim to Chandler Bing-approved over sized tailoring, loose cuts crept from the fringes of fashion and into mainstream menswear, marking a sartorial shift that looks set to continue long into the next decade.

It was a breath of fresh air for both our wardrobes and our testicles, as spray-on legwear disappeared almost entirely – replaced instead by straight-leg, relaxed and wide-leg fits – and boxy ’90s-inspired outerwear reigned supreme.

Commando Soles

For several years, the overarching trend in men’s footwear fashion has been marked by a move away from minimalism and simplicity, and towards OTT styling and bulkiness. The rise of maximalism has been most evident in the sneaker world, but 2019 saw it take hold of our boots and brogues, too.

The commando sole is formal footwear’s answer to chunky sneaker madness. It’s bold and bulky, and has a way of completely altering the overall look of a shoe. Everything from classic Chelsea boots to dressy Derbies received the thick-tread treatment over the course of the last year, and with those rugged soles offering increased traction in wintery conditions, this is one of those rare trends that’s as practical as it is stylish.

The Great Outdoors

It’s tricky to say what an era will be remembered for trend-wise without the benefit of hindsight, but if we were going to put money on it, we’d say that 2019 will go down as the year that function went fashion. Pockets were plentiful, the biggest names in fashion were playing with technical fabrics, and your bird-watching uncle’s street cred was at an all-time high.

This wasn’t just any old trend, though, it was one that actually made our lives easier. Because, let’s face it, a Gore-Tex hard shell is always going to hold up better in the rain than a wool pea coat. This considered, we’ll definitely be continuing to wear our outdoor-inspired garb into the new year and we’d suggest you do the sam

Tailoring & Knitwear

Texture and layering are two of the pillars of advanced dressing, and they’re both integral to one of 2019’s hottest tailoring trends. Suiting worn with knitwear was everywhere over the last 12 months, marking another step in the general loosening up of dress codes across the board. Stuffy shirts were replaced with fine-gauge rollnecks, fisherman beanies were teamed up with unstructured blazers and statement crewnecks lent simple suits a fresh lease of life.

It’s more than just a fleeting trend, though. This simple style move looks set to become a staple of modern menswear and is something that exudes the sort of timeless appeal needed to carry it into a new year and beyond.

Weather-Proof Sneakers

As sun-drenched strolls home from the office mutate into dark, frigid commutes in torrential rain, sneakerheads all over the world are faced with a horrifying choice: to ruin their most prized possessions in the adverse weather or, perhaps even worse, to consider wearing footwear other than sneakers for the next couple of months.

Thankfully, 2019 and its taste for functional fashion brought with it a solution to this age-old seasonal conundrum: Gore-Tex sneakers…and plenty of them. From Nike to New Balance, every trainer brand worth its salt was experimenting with the waterproof fabric this year and we still can’t get enough of it.
