Editor’s Picks: 3 Fall Layering Staples From Life After Denim

A heavyweight flannel for those brisk days should be in every man’s closet — especially one with pockets. The Mount Royal Shirt Jacket is made from 100% cotton twill, brushed for a soft hand feel. It offers plenty of warmth and comfort without the heaviness that comes from putting on a coat. And the yarn-dyed blanket stripe design sets it apart from the bounty of buffalo plaid bound to be out there this fall.

The Vittoria Crew is another prime example of Life After Denim’s commitment to staples over basics. It’s made from a jaspé knitted loopback twill, which is variegated in the weaving by using warp yarns of differing shades together with single-color filling yarns. This is what gives the Vittoria Crew it’s unique texture and perfectly worn-in look and feel, helping elevate it above typical crew sweaters. Dressed up under a blazer or dressed down for the weekend, its a crewneck for the long haul.

Ever have a sweater that’s just too itchy? Well, the Old Port Cardigan may be the shawl collar cardigan answer to that problem. Its waffle-style knit is made from 100% cotton to provide a distinct style that immediately stands out — that also means it won’t pill like wool or cashmere either. The medium weight makes the Old Port Cardigan an ideal sweater for layering options from fall through winter.
