The End-of-Year Fashion Trends All Guys Should Know in 2023
It may be hard to believe, but 2023 is coming to a close, and if you're a guy who's not sure what to wear during the fall and winter seasons, we have you covered.
You can never go wrong with the classics, but if you're looking to try on the biggest trending styles of the year and upgrade your wardrobe, there's no better time to do it than at the end of the year. Whether you're looking for some new pieces yourself or hunting for the perfect gift for your favorite stylish guy, here are the trends you need to know right now.
Elevated Wool Coats
There's a good reason that wool coats are a winter staple. They're extra warm and protective against chilly end-of-year weather, as well as breathable, and their materials stand the test of time so that they can be worn year after year, which is why it's worth investing in one that's anything but basic. We love the length, straight cut and color of this Wool Blend Long Camel Coat from The Kooples as it's stylish and modern, and sure to still look excellent for many winters to come.

Oversized Scarves
Last year's oversized scarf trend is back in a big way in 2023, as they're an effortless way to keep toasty as well as add a tasteful pop of color or contact pattern to an ensemble. Last year, we saw lots of blocky plaids and checkerboard patterns, but if you want to switch things up, a houndstooth pattern (such as the one on this TBCo Men's Lambswool Scarf) is sure to do the trick.

Ripped Denim
Even as the temperatures dip, the ripped denim trend is here to stay as we say goodbye to 2023. Torn and distressed styles give off a casual air that lends some coolness to any outfit, making them a streetwear essential. We can't get enough of the lighter wash and perfectly placed tears on these KSUBI jeans.

Hiking Boots
Hiking boots have risen in popularity all throughout 2023, and the trending styles are all about form meeting function. We love looks that are just as appropriate for wearing on a hike as they are for stepping around the city—especially in rainy or snowy weather—such as these slick boots from Danner.

Throwback Sneakers
Classic and retro sneaker styles aren't going anywhere anytime soon. Some looks—like adidas's Samba OG Shoes—are not only timeless, but more fashionable right now than they've been in years. The iconic three-stripe look truly can't do you wrong.

Patterned Sweaters
Sweaters are a fall and winter must every year, but in 2023, more elegant fitted and patterned sweaters are all the rage. You can't go wrong with classic knitted sweaters, but we're especially fond of ones that'll show off your form and ones with unique colors or patterns, like this stylish Banana Republic Gradient Sweater.

Boxy Bombers
Bomber jackets are back for the fall-winter 2023 season, but this year, it's all about boxy options that create a specific segmented silhouette. Keep your bomber zipped, and don't allow your T-shirt to poke out from underneath to create the right clean, segmented look with an item such as this MA-1 Bomber Jacket from Alpha Industries.

Distressed Leather Jackets
We firmly believe that leather will never go out of style, but if you want to be on-trend this season, you'll want that worn-in look. Distressed leather jackets that don't look brand new will give you an extra edge—especially once you break them in and they start fitting like a glove. Check out this Ionic Distressed Brown Leather Biker Jacket by The Jacket Maker to see what it's all about.
