Editors’ Picks: HBX Fall 2021 Essentials

Last fall the world was on lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and with it came a surplus of casual clothing suitable for cozy evenings indoors. But as businesses have started to reopen and people are venturing out of their homes, it’s time to assemble your wardrobe according to the festivities surrounding the fall season.

Whether you’re looking for a utility shoe, a technical jacket to tackle the chilly autumn winds, or clean pants for a family reunion, we’ve got you covered. For this edition of Editors’ Choices, we’ve rounded up some of our favorite HBX ready-to-wear pieces and shoes for fall 2021 that feature a range of tactical, casual and classic styles.

Salomon XT-6 Advanced

I’ve always admired the XT-6 ADVANCED silhouette for several reasons – its construction is sleek, its technical aesthetic that’s not too overdone and is extremely comfortable for walking all day. For someone who tends to keep neutral toned clothes in their wardrobe, this colourway certainly resonates with my fashion and shoe sensibility. Charcoal gray stems paired with purple accents make for a versatile, simple and seasonally friendly palette to keep rotating throughout fall and winter. -Elliot Santiago

Stone Island nylon military jacket

Hbx

The Stone Island Nylon Field Jacket is the perfect blend of utility and style. The quilted pattern and elbow patches add tasteful design cues, and the rust color reflects the change of season of fall and the warm hues of fallen leaves. It’s the perfect mid-size jacket for cooler fall evenings. – Rosie Perper

CarService racing knit jacket

Hbx

Funny enough, I can’t drive, although I often find myself gravitating to automotive-inspired clothing. The CarService brand channels the cool retro style of racing clothing with a minimal approach to its design and colourways, which I appreciate for layering with other clothing. The knit composition is also comfortable and non-stuffy to wear, and can easily be moved from the outside to the inside. – Sarah Kearns

Maison Margiela fitted trousers

Hbx

With a high waist and a clean straight leg, Maison Margiela’s tailored trousers add a sophisticated touch to any casual ensemble. Navy blue wool fabric controls construction and subtle silver tone hardware allows for a range of sizes to waist – proof that versatility is a priority in design DNA. – Dylan Kelly

Sherpa Stüssy Filmore Vest

Hbx

Stüssy has grown from a counter-culture streetwear brand to a true pioneer of prints and color, and this Filmore Sherpa cardigan is here for it. The gilet adds the right amount of color and whimsy to an otherwise understated wintery fit with a hypnotic sherpa exterior, serving as a versatile outer layer or layering piece to wear under heavier jackets. Beyond the bright colors, technical elements like the nylon zip pocket on the front, the chunky zip closure and the welt pockets take the gilet into more wearable areas. – Eric Brain

Sandals New Balance SD4205KA

Hbx

Wearing sandals in the fall can seem like a recipe for disaster, especially if, like me, you live in soggy London. But New Balance’s SD4205, which was originally released last summer as a Korean exclusive, is hard to argue with. This is a sturdier, more resilient version of the backless, slipper-inspired shoe styles we’ve all worn all year round, made from a quick-drying mesh that would easily withstand a puddle or a sudden shower. To be honest, I’ll wear mine with socks. – Rob Nowill
