The fall 2025 runways offer a rich palette of textures to explore. The contrast of choice comes in many forms, from high-gloss patent leather trousers to the softness of a mohair knit sweater or suede jacket. Elevate the look with a statement bag and pair of shoes. Incorporate layering to add dimension and depth, making texture the cornerstone of a versatile, season-long wardrobe.
Leather Trousers by Acne Studios

Pictured in burgundy, these Acne trousers sport a glossy shell of lambskin leather (sourced from a gold-rated Leather Working Group to boot). Embellished by a pair of two-way zippers and an elasticated waistband with drawstring closure, the straight-cut silhouette adapts to any figure with ease. ($3,000)
Coat by Prada

No discussion of texture is complete without a mention of wool or shearling — and this Prada coat uses both. Fashioned from virgin wool, the classic cut features notched lapels, wide shoulders, and a three-button closure. Of course, it’s the cozy shearling collar that caught our eye: the shiny material has been dyed and treated to accentuate its full-bodied palette. For a more low-key look, the collar is easily removed — but given the frigid temperatures to come, there’s hardly a reason to. (Price Upon Request)
Saddle Bag by Dior Men

Since its introduction in 1999, the Dior Saddle Bag has become a bonafide staple. Renowned for its singular silhouette — shaped like its name suggests — and a chic crossbody strap, the Saddle Bag is a key companion for outings. This particular iteration, distinguished by its monochromatic colour scheme, enhances the iconic design with textured leather and puffy trim. (Price Upon Request)
Lucas Overshirt by Gabriela Hearst
Learn More
Crafted in soft suede, the textured material of the Lucas Overshirt creates subtle highlights and shadows, enhancing its rust-red hue. Matching chest pockets and buttons allow the seventies-inspired colour to take centre stage. Inspired by Leonard Cohen — a legend of both music and literature — the shirt evokes the Canadian singer-songwriter, combining simplicity and depth at once. ($5,200)
Damier Embroidered Cardigan by Louis Vuitton Men’s
Learn More
Using a thoughtful blend of silk and cotton, this embroidered cardigan balances the sleekness of the former with the latter’s cozy comfort. Painted with the uplifting pink of a cherry blossom, rhinestones glimmer atop a chequered Damier pattern. ($7,600)
Premium 6-Inch Lace-Up Boot by Timberland
Learn More
Putting leopard print on a hiking boot, Timberland forgoes all the rules; these six-inch lace-ups are truly one-of-a-kind. The laces and upper come from premium leather, while a steel shank ensures maximum arch support. Even the lining — made from Timberland’s signature ReBOTL fabric, which contains at least 50% recycled material — is undeniably unique. ($190)
