Mr Marvis Cosmics pullover

Mr Marvis Jones The Cords
Meet The Cords Jones. These mid-brown ribbed trousers are now a staple at Mr Marvis, and like the trousers before them, they prioritise comfort. An elasticated waistband adds breathing space for your gut, while 98 per cent organic cotton is blended with a touch of elastane for a stretchier fit.

Barbour for Margaret Howell Waxed Parka
Two British brands coming together is always a special occasion. Margaret Howell, the brand behind minimal and fuss-free menswear, has teamed up with Barbour to reinterpret the signature 6oz Sykoil waxed cotton jacket. The Barbour for Margaret Howell Waxed Parka features a stand collar with corduroy trim and comes in a muted, and easily wearable, black tone.
Purdey Petersham Cotton-Corduroy Jacket
Made for the countryside, but just as good for the city, this Purdey Petersham Cotton-Corduroy Jacket is both functional and smart. It's made from cotton-corduroy and a convertible collar helps to block out the chill.
Drake's gilet
Right about now, you're probably wondering how the hell you can dress for this indecisive weather. Well, it's gilet time. But we're not talking the sort most bankers wear to the office - padded and totally unflattering. No. This quilted gilet takes its cues from hiking and mountaineering clothing and is cut from a rugged melton wool and generously wadded with recycled wool.
New & Lingwood jeans
If you're nuts about denim, you'll know that Blackhorse Lane in London does some of the best. And New & Lingwood has teamed up with the North London establishment to make these straight-leg, five pocket jeans.
Paul Smith boots
Made from premium suede with a classic Chelsea boot design, these black 'Augustus' boots from Paul Smith are what we're stomping about in all autumn. Featuring rubber soles with a contrast zebra pattern insert, as well as elasticated side gores and logo heel pulls for ease of wear, they're the quirky-meets-comfy sort of product we've come to expect from Sir Paul.
Asket The Wool Trousers
Asket, the brand on a mission to make dressing easier, has dropped its fiftieth product in its main collection. The final product to be introduced to the mainstay modular line, these trousers deserve their place in every guy's wardrobe.
Tod's Bomber Jacket
Suede isn't typically resistant to the elements, but Tod's bomber jacket has been cut from a Pashmy suede with anti-drip and anti-stain treatment. A unique material with an exceptional softness, the Pashmy suede is suited to the unpredictable weather you'll experience throughout autumn.
Tod's Tabs Sneakers
For a vintage effect, Tod's Tabs sneakers are cut from the finest suede and stamped with the Tod's heritage logo.
Luca Faloni classic shirt
Cut from 100 per cent Italian cotton, Luca Faloni's denim shirt is a lightweight take on a classic. Ideal for layering, it's a prime addition for any transitional wardrobe.

Made from Tencel lyocell, a fibre derived from certified renewable wood sources, these might be the softest and most planet-friendly boxer shorts out there.
Gola trainers
Give your fits a retro kick with a pair of Gola's gum-soled sneaks. The all-new Gola Cyclone Leather is closely related to Gola's Torpedo, but the Cyclone Leather stands out with its gum cup sole, offering a more contemporary look.
Daniel Simmons pleated trousers
A menswear essential, a pair of black pleated trousers gets you a long way.
Brioni piqué polo shirt
Designed with a regular fit and detailed with mother-of-pearl buttons and leather bevelled gusset with Brioni's B logo on hem, this polo shirt will add a touch of luxury to any outfit.
A.P.C. jeans
If there's a brand that knows its way around a pair of jeans, it's A.P.C. The Parisian label's denim is constructed with contrast topstitching, classic five-pockets and relaxed, slim legs, which are dyed a timeless indigo.
Tommy x U.S. Sail GP Team jumper
You don't need to be into sailing to wear this preppy jumper from the recent Tommy Hilfiger and US Sail GP team collaboration. Consider this your autumnal throw-on.
Drake's sweatshirt
Every guy needs a sweatshirt. Cut in a classic shape using a substantial cotton jersey, this staple sweatshirt from Drake's has a retro feel reminiscent of mid-Century sporting apparel.
Tod's Windbreaker
Not your average windbreaker, this Tod's windbreaker has a stylish edge thanks to its higher collar. That being said, it's still got the high-tech finishes of a classic performancewear windbreaker, such as an anti-drip finishing, welt pockets and elastic cuffs.
New & Lingwood Cream Cotton Carpenter Jacket
The Painter's Jacket is New & Lingwood's unique take on workwear. Crafted from a durable cotton twill fabric from Brisbane Moss, this jacket features three exterior patch pockets with reinforced stitching, sleeve lining and brown imitation horn buttons.

Church's Pembrey 2.0 loafers

Paul Smith Straight-Fit Vintage-Wash jeans
Made from a premium 13oz 100 per cent cotton denim, these classic five-pocket jeans have a worn-in feel, and are designed to look as though you've had them for years. Team with a white T-shirt and allow the jeans to fall nonchalantly over a pair of loafers for a timeless look.
Brioni Beige Sea Island piqué cotton polo
A classic cut polo shirt, Brioni's Sea Island piqué will elevate any outfit. Sea Island is one of the finest and most sought-after cottons in the world - it is grown in limited quantities in the Caribbean and is renowned for its long staple fibres, which allow for a more resilient yarn.
MR MARVIS Wimbledons T-shirt
After a white T-shirt that does the job of looking James Dean cool, but won't shrink in the wash and lose its brightness? MR MARVIS has got you covered.

More than a shirt, but lightweight enough to sit adjacent to one, Mr P.'s shirt jacket is made from airy linen dyed a sunny light-yellow. It's finished with an elasticated hem that's a little longer at the back, and will add a pop of colour to a neutrally-toned wardrobe with ease.

LESTRANGE The Hydrowool Bomber Jacket
This could well be the Platonic ideal of a spring jacket. Cult menswear brand LESTRANGE has taken the essence of a men’s wardrobe staple – a hero item that’s beloved for its classic, organic lines and timeless feel – and has elevated it with a strong emphasis on utility. The shell is made from merino wool, which minimises creasing, is flexible and has a premium feel – and, perhaps most impressive of all, it comprises a breathable ‘fabric membrane’ that is both windproof and waterproof, making it an essential piece for the UK’s ever-changing weather. We also appreciate the fully lined sleeves, which dial up the wearability, and the tailored fit and pared-down appearance make sure it doesn’t look like a technical piece. It’s best worn with neutral trousers and unembellished sneakers and is also appropriate for year-round wear.
LESTRANGE The 360° Blazer
Dressing for travel has long been a pain point for the modern professional – you want something that’s smart enough for business, comfortable for the trip, and is almost immune to creasing so that you can move from arrivals to your meeting without needing to head to the hotel to iron your ensemble. The 360° Blazer, courtesy of LESTRANGE, makes a strong claim to being the ultimate piece for those on-the-move. It has the elegant, evergreen appeal of a traditional navy blazer, but this take has been elevated and modernised with a technical fabric that’s tough to wrinkle and is resistant to water. Moreover, it’s unstructured and has a four-way stretch, allowing for ease of movement throughout the journey. In terms of aesthetics, the patch pockets give it a contemporary look, meaning it can work with casual pieces (plain T-shirts and chinos) as well as dressier ones (Oxford shirts and tailored trousers).
Émigré Garment Organiser
This might well be the ultimate travel-wardrobe workhorse. Émigré – the brand kitting out the modern professional – streamlines the packing process with this sleek, pared-back and purely practical Garment Organiser. Measuring slightly bigger than a standard portfolio, it unzips into two main compartments: one half is intended for shirts (a removable plate provides extra support and doubles up as a folding board); the other features two small zippered mesh pockets for socks and underwear, and a larger zippered section for a pair of trousers. Perhaps most nifty of all is the external pocket in which you can place worn items. It’s ideal for business trips that last 1–3 days.
Tracksmith Session Tee
This new T-shirt from Tracksmith has versatility in mind. In terms of aesthetics, it comes in a range of universally appealing, timeless colourways (we rather like the royal, navy and ivory options). The design is also completely stripped back, ensuring that the piece is wearable in many scenarios. Then, in terms of functionality, it’s crafted from a lightweight, moisture-wicking and antimicrobial stretch knit, meaning it can take you from gentle Sunday runs to longer distances. Because it has a relaxed fit, and because of its breathability, we also like to wear it when travelling for work.
Gant 240 Mulberry Street jumper
Channel Ivy League prep in one of Gant's new cable knit jumpers from its premium 240 Mulberry Street line.
Belstaff Centenary jacket
To celebrate Belstaff's centenary, the British brand has introduced the 'Our First 100 Years' capsule. The Centenary field jacket has modular functionality, as the Centenary Quilt jacket can be zipped into it for extra warmth (sold separately), and it is made from the signature Belstaff dry wax cotton with hexagonal ripstop construction.
