We've gone for bold colours for this week's outfit grid with pieces from some of our favourite outdoor brands. Starting off this week's look is something very special from American outdoor-wear imprint Patagonia . This Torrentshell Jacket is constructed from a waterproof, yet breathable shell which both protects you from the elements and looks super slick thanks to the bold colours and this being the more contemporary pullover version. We've teamed the jacket with this P6 Logo t-shirt, also from Patagonia , which is a classic organic cotton t-shirt complete with their signature mountain logo branding. Keeping it in the family we have also used this complimentary Travel Tote Bag from the brand. Super lightweight and a decent size it folds down making it super handy and portable. For bottoms we have gone for a slim fitting ED-80 from Edwin and for footwear we have gone  for this classic New Balance MRL420SD in black which has a great new slightly more m...

This weeks look is a perfect winter everyday look made up of thick comfortable layers in the perfect Autumnal colour pallet of blues and browns. The look is kept stylish and contemporary thanks to high technical specs with premium designs and branding. First up in this look is the beautiful Patagonia Bivy Down Jacket which is designed for warmth and comfort. This jacket is constructed from a wind and water resistant outer nylon canvas which is insulated with 100% traceable down. On top of this the jackets outdoor utilitarian look is also super stylish this season. For extra warmth under the jacket we have layered with the Carhartt Demand Hooded Sweatshirt which at medium weight will not look to bulky under your jacket. We choose a hooded sweat for this everyday layered look as it will still keep you warm inside with the jacket off, unfortunately in this weather a simple t-shirt indoors will not cut it anymore. To sharpen up this everyday look we have selected the slim fitti...

This weeks outfit grid is a clean Winter-centric look characterised with an effortlessly minimal aesthetic. The main attraction of this look is the quilted grey Lacoste Live Down Padded Jacket . Blending down and feathers for both warmth and comfort it's subtle styling and sleek grey colour add a modern, graphic touch to the look. Under the jacket we have used the lightweight, shetland wool, understated knitted sweater from scadanvian brand Wood Wood which itself we've layered over a plain white t-shirt from Carhartt WIP .  Keeping the lines clean we have used Carhartt WIP's slim fitting Sid Pants in complimentary navy, the slimmer fitting silhouette on the bottoms balances out the top heavy upper layers. We have used New Balance's U430SKG for the footwear in this look as the icy navy and grey colourway ties in with the overall look; we also love how the slightly padded grey textile inserts compliment the textured of the down jacket. We've kept the ...

The look defies ostentation whilst still holding attention thanks to sharp lines and coherent exquisite detailing. Starting off this look is one of our favourite A/W pieces, the Filson Short Cruiser Jacket in Midnight Navy . Constructed from durable water repellent fabric, which will keep you both warm and dry, it's classic tailoring and subtle detailing mean it's practicality is more than matched by its style. Bringing a hint of colour to the look is the Lacoste Live L/S Skinny Fit Check Shirt in Toucan Yellow , a classic button up shirt with a contemporary edge. Keeping the look modern we have teamed it with Carhartt WIP's slim fitting Rebel Pant in the new colusa denim. The detailing on these jeans are beautiful with a soft yellow stitched threading, gold button up fly and of course the iconic Carhartt logo on a leather patch to the rea...

This week's outfit grid features some of our favourite pieces for Autumn/Winter 2015 from brands such as Carhartt WIP and New Balance . This modern layered look utilises a perfect Autumn colour palette of blues, reds and burnished tans in thick warm materials of cottons and denim. Basing the look is the Floyd Shirt from Carhartt WIP . This classic button up shirt has minimal detailing to allow the plaid to retain focus while the reds bring a bit of colour to the overall look.
