At the beginning of this article, we'll briefly recap what a men's capsule wardrobe actually means in practice and the benefits of incorporating its principles into your wardrobe. Dear men, a capsule wardrobe is, above all, a time-saver for you. A few pieces that can be interchanged offer endless possibilities for creating outfits. This is all thanks to their universal nature and timelessness, which allow for any mix and match. This will definitely simplify the process of putting together great outfits. Below, you'll find 7 stylish items that are perfect for starting a capsule wardrobe and will be perfect for fall.
Good quality jeans
We must emphasize here from the outset – buying the right jeans is no easy task. Every men's capsule wardrobe should include at least one pair, and such a pair should be perfectly fitted to your figure . Therefore, choose brands that specialize in denim! This will guarantee quality and experience. Moreover, such brands often include tailoring services, such as shortening, in the purchase price.
Universal BASIC
A classic short-sleeved T-shirt in white or black offers a wide range of styling options. A men's capsule wardrobe is incomplete without it. This design goes with practically everything. We especially recommend our MR BASIC T-shirts made of high-quality, lightweight SUPIMA® cotton, which is incredibly dense and durable. It is 45% more durable and significantly absorbs and retains color better than standard cotton.
Sweater
Why? We'll explain! It's incredibly versatile and can be paired equally well with jeans, chinos, shirts, or the classic T-shirts mentioned earlier. However, remember to check the label before purchasing and pay close attention to the product's composition. We recommend investing in cashmere, which guarantees warmth on cool days while also providing good ventilation. Merino wool, as well as merino wool with a touch of silk, are also great for autumn days. If you need an extra layer, remember that our selection includes MR INVISIBLE undershirts, which are also perfect under a sweater. The nude T-shirts, available in three shades, fit snugly and are available in three color variants to suit different skin tones.
