The big push for guys this fall is to stock up on well-tailored essentials and bang for your buck basics—just about anything you can wear with longevity. That's reasonable. It's smart. But, you can't be comfortable with a boring closet full of blah basics if that's not who you are. This is where Acne Jeans stands out, and why it's one of our favorite collections. It's everyday style staples...basics...but done with a twist, a fashion forward flair. It's an original print here, or a contrast placket there that makes all the difference.

Nylon bombers and leather motos too cookie cutter for you? Here's an original, nylon body with leather sleeves! The Princeton Jacket is sporty but statement.

The Place Vendome Sweater has some of the softest cashmere we've felt this year. Khaki pants, wool trousers, or skinny denim, this cardigan fits right in.

The Pull Sweater is a good example of timeless plus fashion forward. The V-neck drops a little lower than most, adding edge while still being everyday easy to wear. Look front left for something you don't see a lot, the Acne logo!

The multi print on this Classic Wide Dots Shirt is growing on us. There's always a chance of running into someone with the same plaid on, but this dot pattern is original. The woven itself is lightweight cotton, and you have to take our word for it—there is a left chest pocket!
