Shirts are the backbone of any man’s wardrobe. Whether you’re layering under a knit jumper or pairing one with a sleek jacket, a well-made shirt can elevate your look in any season. When it comes to autumn and winter, quality shirts become even more essential, helping you stay comfortable and stylish as the temperature drops. Oliver Spencer shirts are all about relaxed, modern classics. Each shirt offers something unique, from the cut to the materials, and are especially ideal for layering up in the colder months. Let’s dive into four key styles that are perfect for your autumn and winter rotation.
Brook Shirt: A Standout Everyday Essential
The Brook shirt is the epitome of versatility. With its classic preppy button-down collar, it’s structured enough to work in semi-formal settings but relaxed enough to wear casually. The collar's soft roll makes it easy to layer with sweaters or jackets without losing its shape. Made with premium organic cotton, this shirt offers a great balance of warmth and breathability, making it ideal for those unpredictable autumn days when it’s chilly in the morning and milder in the afternoon. For autumn and winter, the Brook shirt is an easy go-to that you can style with practically anything, making it a real wardrobe workhorse.
Treviscoe Shirt: A Laid-back Overshirt
The Treviscoe shirt is a slightly more relaxed take compared to the Brook, offering a soft point collar that has a more casual vibe. Its unique charm comes from the slightly heavier fabric, making it an excellent overshirt choice for those colder autumn days and into winter. The fabric weight gives it a more substantial feel, so you can easily wear it under a thick wool coat or a heavier cardigan. Pair it with selvedge denim jeans and layer it over a plain white tee for a contemporary autumn look. It’s a great option for both weekend fits and casual workdays.
Grandad Shirt: Minimalist Style with a Twist
If you prefer a collarless option, the Grandad shirt is your go-to. This shirt brings a minimalist, clean look with its round-neck collar, making it a little different from your standard button-up while still maintaining Oliver Spencer’s signature relaxed fit. The Grandad shirt is perfect for layering under a chunky knit sweater, but we love styling it with our tailoring to provide a laid back sophistication. Plus, it’s easy to style with chinos or tailored trousers, giving you a sleek, modern look for the season.
New York Special Shirt: Refined Comfort for Cooler Days
The New York Special shirt blends a sharp cut with soft, textured fabric for a shirt that feels as good as it looks. With its classic point collar, this shirt is a bit more refined compared to the others, making it an excellent choice for dressier occasions during autumn and winter. The fabric, often a blend of organic cotton or even wool mixes, adds a layer of insulation without being overly heavy, making it perfect for layering under a tailored coat or jacket. Whether you’re headed to a business meeting or a dinner date, the New York Special keeps you warm while maintaining an air of sophistication. Pair it with our tailored wool trousers and a sleek overcoat for a polished, cold-weather look.
