H&M STUDIO MEN PRESENTS A/W18 “ATHLETIC PREP” COLLECTION
This September, H&M Studio releases its A/W18 menswear collection, entitled “Athletic Prep”, and inspired by Ivy League collegiate style.
Traditional menswear classics and preppy staples are subject to a series of slick contemporary and rebellious punk revisions. Authentic retro duffel coats, cropped tartan puffer jackets, and corduroy-collared, recycled-wool western jackets define the outerwear mood. Chunky cord slacks in a crisp navy cut make a neat pairing with the varsity letter pullover, as well as the campus sweater featuring an authentic Harvard University shield emblem. A chunky wool argyle beanie comprises the finishing touch.
“For this autumn collection, we wanted to combine the signature H&M Studio Men sportswear-oriented mentality with a traditional preppy aesthetic to offer a roster of authentic menswear classics, in premium fabrics, that will surprise our customer thanks to subtle, modern twists,”
Adam Gauffin, Concept Designer at H&M Studio Men
The collection, which comprises clothing, shoes and accessories, will be available to buy online and in selected stores from 6 September.
