Denim fashion has always been the ‘talk of the town’. Every time a new season comes, people draw their eyes to the denim section: consumers wonder what’s new, while fashion brands wonder how they can innovate this classic fashion piece even further. The denim material itself is versatile, can be made into bottoms, tops or outerwears, it can be worn on various occasions and most importantly, it looks great on both sexes. The more common denim is, the higher the expectation consumers have for brands to carry out the best designs and products so that the standard remains high. In this blog, Inflow will reveal the 6 denim pieces that fashion brands can add to their Autumn-Winter men's collections to stand out from the crowd. Let’s dive in!
1. Long Denim Coat
Long denim coat is a must-have in your Autumn-Winter collection.
The long denim coat gives the classic denim jacket versatility and longevity, featuring a classic pointed collar, front button closure, and an array of pockets for functionality. The silhouette includes a defined waistband that offers a structured fit, while the placement of the pockets adds a utilitarian aesthetic. With the length adjusted, this jean jacket will definitely be both creative and suitable for the upcoming breezy season.
2. Straight Leg Jeans
The straight leg jeans are no longer foreign to the men’s fashion collection. They are stylish, can be played with details and prints, and extremely versatile. Unlike other fashion items that can be bold and capture people’s attention right away, the straight leg jeans’ appeals are very subtle, but perpetual. According to WGSN, in the UK, these jeans are seeing a slow rise in popularity, while in the US they hit the plateau (see graph below). As long as the item does not fall on the red side of the graph, fashion brands can totally consider adding it to their collection.

3. Surreal Low Rise Jeans
Surreal-looking jeans add more characteristics to your collection.
These bizarre looking jeans can be the next highlight of your brand’s upcoming fashion collection. WGSN suggests a surreal jeans design that you can totally consider, shown as the photos above. With a low-rise fit, these jeans feature a distinctive layered design with multiple tiers of fabric, creating a textured, deconstructed “jeans-within-jeans” look. The heavier denim material acts as a barrier against the cold, and the loose style means you can easily wear warm layers underneath. Fashion brands take notes, this can elevate your collection to the next level!
4. Pleat-front Jeans
Jeans with pleated details at the front can be the next highlight of your collection.
These jeans are a modern twist on a classic design, showcasing prominent front pleated details that elevate the traditional denim look. The folds add a touch of smart tailoring, making the jeans look neater and fuller in shape. They make a stylish, laid-back shape that's comfy and chic.
5. The Boxy Shirt
Jean shirts have always been a staple.
Utility fashions remain popular due to their enduring allure and sturdy designs, with the denim shirt serving as a fundamental layering item across seasons. A denim shirt is a classic wardrobe staple that embodies both ruggedness and casual style. It is durable and versatile, easily dressed up with slacks or down with a pair of casual pants. Jean shirts can come in a variety of shades from light to dark denim and may feature details like snap buttons, patch pockets, and contrast stitching. Ideal for trans-seasonal styling, a denim shirt can elevate a professional ensemble or anchor a laid-back, off-duty look. For fashion brands, incorporating denim shirts into their lines opens up avenues for creative expression—think classic indigo dyes, innovative distressing, or eco-friendly materials—that resonate with a broad audience seeking both style and substance.
6. The Racer Jacket
The racer denim jacket is the perfect mix between the old-fashioned material and the racer aesthetic.
According to WGSN, as Y2K aesthetics make a comeback, racing-inspired designs are gaining traction, propelled by forward-thinking labels like Diesel from Italy and Ottolinger from Germany. It presents a dynamic fusion of classic denim and the edgy racer aesthetic. The jacket is equipped with a sharp, band-style collar and a front zipper closure, reminiscent of traditional motorcycle gear. Pockets are strategically placed for both functionality and style, enhancing the utilitarian vibe. With its cinched waist and zippered cuffs, the jacket offers a tailored fit that mirrors the sleekness of racer attire, while the denim material maintains a connection to the timeless appeal of jean jackets.
