Denim 2015: Redefining the Classic Look

Let’s be real - denim has never been a challenge to pull off. Every guy owns at least a pair of jeans or a go-to denim jacket. In 2015, denim's making a strong comeback, and style experts are convinced it’s only getting bigger and better.


Here’s a breakdown of the latest denim trends, so you can rock the look in a fresh way. No major shake-ups here - denim’s timeless charm is staying intact. The new styles focus on mixing things up for a fresh take on an old favorite.


Denim Jackets

Earlier this year, high-end names like Burberry Prorsum and Prada put denim jackets front and center on their runways. Prada even took it further, weaving denim-inspired stitching into trench coats and blazers, giving classic pieces a rugged twist.

These are high-fashion looks under bright lights, but for the everyday guy, there’s plenty to work with. As the last bit of chill lingers, consider elevating your layering game with a denim jacket. Instead of wearing it as your top layer over a shirt or tee, try layering it under a blazer or trench coat. Mixing these textures brings a new depth to the classic denim jacket.

And in line with this year's trends, denim is expanding into other jacket styles too: bomber jackets, blazers, even vests. Definitely worth giving a shot.


Denim Shirts

Denim shirts are classics that aren’t going anywhere, but 2015 brings some new ways to wear them. Pairing a denim shirt with a blazer and a wool tie is an easy way to elevate your look to smart-casual. Or, keep it classic: a denim shirt over a T-shirt paired with jeans in a different wash or khakis is always a solid choice.

Jeans

This year, jeans are going beyond the basics. Around the globe, guys are pairing them with everything from tees to blazers for a lighter, approachable alternative to the suit. If you want to try something new, slim-fit jeans in shades like classic blue, indigo, or black are your best bet—timeless and versatile.
