Several influential designers revisited minimalism for their fall 2011 collections, placing an emphasis on exquisitely cut coats paired with military-style slim-fit pants. Echo the trend in your own wardrobe by styling this three-button, single-breasted wool-blend coat from Givenchy with black jeans and oxfords.

Since 1952, French label Moncler has been crafting high-end down jackets in sporty designs, with each collection seemingly better than the last. This year’s Chevalier jacket in navy fits right in with fall’s trend for puffer jackets, and its removable hood allows for multiple styling options. For an uptown look with a downtown edge, pair this machine-washable padded jacket with dark denim, sleek ankle boots, a dress shirt, and a tie. For more of a casual vibe, simply swap the dress shirt for a plaid or denim button-down. 

Parajumpers Ralph Jacket 

Price: $900

Utility jackets remain a strong trend in men’s outerwear for a good reason: They’re comfortable and they bring a rugged, masculine feel to any outfit. Parajumper’s version combines military detailing, like epaulettes, with luxe extras such as a detachable faux-fox-fur-lined hood. This jacket is at its best when in the company of distressed denim and a cable-knit sweater. 

Mackage Pablo Jacket 

Price: $940

One surefire way to stand out when temperatures drop is with an unusual jacket, like this cropped topper from Canadian label Mackage. Featuring a wool body, a shearling lining, leather sleeves, and an off-center front zipper, this piece blends a variety of materials, achieving a highly distinctive look that comes off as chic rather than haphazardly assembled thanks to great quality fabrics and attention to tailoring. This jacket will be the focal point of any ensemble so you’ll want to pair it with simple pieces in neutral hues, like V-neck tees and crisp cotton pants, and avoid anything with a busy pattern. 

DSQUARED2 Leather Bomber Jacket

Price: $1795

A black leather jacket is one of those indispensible items that every man should have in his closet. Top quality models, like this bomber from DSQUARED2, require a substantial initial investment, but one that’s well worth it because a jacket like this one, with a zip closure, a stud tab collar and a fit that adheres closely to the body, will never go out of style. An obvious pairing for this jacket is denim, but try it with pressed dress pants too.
