Country Of Origin Lambswool Sweater

We’re not quite sure how they did it but London-based knitwear label Country of Origin has managed to encapsulate cheery summer and grumpy winter in one sterling lambswool jumper.

Diadora Fluo Hoodie

It’s difficult to hear the word ‘fluorescent’ without suffering PTSD-style flashbacks of that frightful lads-on-tour trip to Ayia Napa all those years ago. More tasteful, however, is Diadora’s ‘Fluo’ collection, which includes this vibrant hoodie. Not at all like when Mental Mark cracked open that glow stick and poured it down his gullet.

American Vintage Zippotam Shirt

Despite the name, French clothing company American Vintage is less about #throwback vibes and more about chic minimalism. Take this overshirt, for example, with a loose fit that focuses on those clean lines and less on whatever the 1990s was having for breakfast.

River Island Navy Cord Trousers

Give us an on-trend corduroy trouser, and high street monolith River Island will raise you a plush cord check in an elegant deep blue. Take care with slotting them into an outfit though. These are a bit extra (in the best possible way), so pair best with a plain shirt up top.

Adidas x TFL Continental 80 Shoes

The latest collaboration from Adidas is a little left-field (or, dare we say, underground). Teaming up with the tube and bus bosses at Transport For London, the sports giant has updated its popular Continental 80 model with six limited edition sneakers influenced by two underground lines. We presume that makes the Central line inspired shoes an absolute sweatbox, right?

Weekday Pinstripe Trousers

Here at FashionBeans HQ, we love a pair of pinstripe trousers more than Virgil Abloh loves his little orange tags. These ones from Weekday are pretty perfect – note the pinpoint ratio of stripe to non-stripe, the slouchy fit, the tidy crop at the hem. We approve.
