Remember layers? They’ll soon be back on the menu, whether that’s in the form of a minimalist fleece jacket from Nanamica, Todd Snyder’s take on the blanket-lined denim trucker or a thoroughly trad herringbone sport coat by The Armoury. Of course, the definition of what constitutes a layer is abstract enough to include a silk-and-cashmere Henley from Tom Ford, or even Sleepy Jones’s newly introduced washable silk PJs. Layer up below.

The Armoury by Ring Jacket Model 11 Sport Coat
The herringbone wool jacket may be the menswear equivalent of the pumpkin spice latte, but like Starbucks’s seasonal libation, we’re craving one now—no matter the temperature.

Sleepy Jones Washable Silk Henry Pajama Set
We like the idea of silk pajamas as much as the next person who’s seen Phantom Thread, but we also tire of explaining coffee stains to our drycleaner.

J. Press Garment Dyed Cotton Sashiko Jacket
J. Press may be a bastion of tradition, but that doesn’t mean it can’t experiment from time to time. Case in point: this triple-patch pocket jacket that retains classic details including an un-darted front and hook vent, but is cut from a richly textured, garment-dyed sashiko fabric sourced from Japan.

Lemaire Storm-Flap Cotton Canvas Overcoat
Great design, rather than the Great War, is the chief inspiration behind Lemaire’s restrained overcoat, which is fashioned from water-repellent cotton. While minimalist, it doesn’t skimp on practical features: the coat includes storm flaps and buckled cuff tabs to keep droplets at bay.
