Woolrich Fall 2025 Menswear
This third seasonal instalment of Todd Snyderâs Woolrich Black Label collaboration was shot in New York a few weeks ago, way before this eveningâs formal unveiling presentation at the Woolrich store on Corso Venezia in Milan. A family birthday meant that Snyder could not be on hand to enjoy the shindigâcomplete with DJ booth and influencer-friendly cablecar installationâbut he did check in by phone afterwards to talk through a collection that was in part inspired by volcanic landscapes.
âOne of our sayings in the brand is âlet nature be your muse.â I really want to be thinking about, âwhat is the outdoors, and how do you bring that to an urban setting?â Itâs always kind of a constant push-pull between those two,â he said. One highly enjoyable answer to this on the rail tonight was an apparently classic Woolrich buffalo check shirt, a paradigm pioneer piece, that when you looked at it under the lights reflected light towards your eyes. Created with the Italian mill Majocchi, it was a dreamy technical/heritage piece for any 21st century urban outdoorsman.
Further strong looks in Snyderâs Woolrich offer of rugged luxury included the commando style field jackets and utility pants cut in black or white technically treated moleskin, which convincingly combined military and country sports heritage to muster a tough midwinter commuter ensemble. An olive top to toe look featuring quilted pants below a Primaloft-quilt mix jacket, all of it treated for water-resistance, was handsomely mission-ready. Shoes included lug soled chelsea boots, sneakers and trekking boots with more waterproofing.
Geology print down outerwear, berry toned utility pants in sturdy cotton, wool work jackets and shirts with Casentino-reminiscent pilling, sleek ripstop cycling blousons and caps, snowy-toned barn jackets and waffle-textured cutaway-collar mid layers were just a few of the many other pieces well worth considering for an expedition into your wardrobe. Said Snyder: âHaving this partnership with Woolrich gives me another place to express what I see out there. I think for the longest time we have seen everything very loud, more is more, and I feel now it is more about nature and the outdoors. The sneaker has turned into the hiking boot, if you will.â
