The best thing about autumn/winter 2024 trends for men? The autumn and winter part. Because, while it’s all well and good getting woozy and giddy and silly in the scorch, summer menswear isn’t so polished. The cold snap allows you to layer up, to invest in that eternal jacket , to feel very powerful in a long and sweepy overcoat.

But after the sacred menswear shows of Paris, London, Milan and New York (and after the rising influence of Copenhagen Fashion Week ), there’s more to the autumn/winter 2024 trends than some good, classic outerwear. This season, we’ve seen big glasses, and weird bags, and camouflage everything – all wild in their own ways, and, actually, pretty wearable. So, to prepare you ahead of the most glorious menswear season, the GQ style corps has pulled together all the best autumn/winter 2024 trends for men (and there’s even some stuff you can buy now).

By the way, how do we select our favourite AW24 trends? Trend forecasting is tricky business, we'll have you know. Once all the shows from the season are in, our team spends time sifting through the looks, from shows big to small. Some trends are on the more obvious side — a stand-out shape or silhouette that dominated — and then there are some that fly under the radar a bit more.

But rest easy, nothing gets past us. After we've pulled out the trends (and done a little internal vetting to sort the fantastical from the wearable; crazy from the cool), we'll distil it and then pick some products.
