JACKETS TO REACH FOR
The right jacket is essential for the transitional seasons. Designed for the in-between, the colder nights and the windier days, not too heavy and just light enough, it's the layer that bridges the gap. This season, we watch familiar silhouettes get a fresh perspective with unexpected details and understated luxury taking centre stage.These are the jackets that work hard without looking like they do. easy to throw on, built to last, and just what you want to reach for.
THE PERFECT PUFFER
When the temperature drops, the puffer comes into its own. Practical by nature but far from purely functional, this season sees the familiar shape reworked through sharper proportions, unexpected finishes and new approach to volume. From oversized padding to cocooning layers, these are the coats made for colder days without compromising on style.
OVERSHIRT SEASON
The ultimate in-between layer, overshirts bring a relaxed, utility-led edge to Autumn dressing. Cut from everything from brushed wool and heavyweight cotton to technical fabrics, this season’s iterations balance structure with ease

TRENCH TIME
The trench needs little introduction. Lightweight and easy to throw over anything, it’s the outerwear staple that makes sense when the forecast can’t decide. For AW 26’ the familiar silhouette comes back with longer lines, relaxed proportions and understated details. Worn open, belted or buttoned to the top, it’s a layer that never tries too hard.

ITS GETTING TECHNICAL
Tech jackets have moved well beyond the trail. Weatherproof and quietly functional, they bring a sharper edge to everyday outerwear without looking overly considered. Think pared-back technical fabrics and details that earn their place. Built for whatever the weather throws at you, and good enough to wear long after it clears.
