5 Wardrobe Essentials to Invest in for 2025
There’s a reason why wardrobe staples often come in the same tones. Colors like gray, blue, black, and white are most likely to work with what’s already in your closet and will, without exaggeration, withstand trend after trend. Below, we’ve selected five high-quality pieces that suit any capsule wardrobe.

Light Blue Oxford Shirt
In style circles, the Oxford shirt is often hailed as the number one wardrobe essential. While we agree to some extent, we also want to highlight the shirt's various forms. If you’re only going to own one Oxford shirt, it should be one that works just as well under a sweater, a blazer, or on its own.

Jeans
We can confidently say that a pair of blue jeans pairs well with almost anything in your wardrobe. Choose a fit that suits your comfort—slim, straight, or a more relaxed cut. They can effortlessly be dressed up or down with a blazer or a T-shirt.

Knitted Sweater
A knitted pullover made from cashmere or lambswool is one of the most versatile garments you can wear. It’s comfortable enough for lounging on the sofa and sophisticated enough to pair with a shirt underneath or wear on its own with tailored trousers.
Black Loafers
Even if you’re someone who prefers sneakers, a pair of loafers is a must in your shoe wardrobe. This shoe style is the perfect combination of a casual option that still maintains a dressed-up standard. Wear them with jeans, tailored trousers, chinos, or shorts. Pair them with high socks during cooler temperatures or go sockless when the summer heat arrives.
Grey Sweatshirt
A grey sweatshirt made from loopback cotton is one of the most comfortable garments that should be in every man's wardrobe. Wear it as a casual alternative to the knitted sweater—comfortable enough for lounging on the sofa, yet sophisticated enough to wear with a shirt underneath. British brand Sunspel is renowned for producing some of the world's finest basics, making this sweatshirt an excellent choice.
