Some of Our Favorite Clothing Released in 2021

This story is part of our end-of-year series This Year in Gear, rounding up the most notable releases of 2021.

The pandemic has shaped the clothing industry in the past year and a half, influencing buying habits, trends and new releases. Comfortable styles — sweatpants, hoodies and sneakers — boomed, as expected, but the isolation also gave brands renewed focus on producing unique, meaningful products. There are countless releases worth calling out, but these are a few of our favorites.

Bristol Studio Triple Hem Shorts

The hem has been a hot topic recently. Some are convinced that the shorter the better, while our collective adoration for nostalgic outfits — looking at you, vintage NBA uniforms — has drawn some closer to capri-like shorts than ever. However, Bristol Studio does something we haven’t seen yet: three hems on one pair of shorts! Each layer is a different color but all come with a woven logo tag. If nothing else, the triple hem affords texture to an otherwise plain pair of mesh bottoms.

Dockers

Dandy Del Mar The Tonga Linen Shirt

style

In the summer, it’s totally fine to look laid-back. In fact, the season’s all about leisure: sitting under the sun, sipping a drink as it sets and setting foot in the water to cool off. In our opinion, your clothes should tell others how you’re feeling — in this case, “leisurely.” Dandy Del Mar’s Tonga Linen shirt does just that. With pearl buttons, an Alhambra Check pattern, a spread collar, front pleats and a somewhat sun-faded finish, it’s the right option for dinner or a day by the pool.

Aimé Leon Dore Fleece Liner Jacket

style

Courtesy

After a stoking the hype for a few weeks, Aimé Leon Dore’s FW21 collection is finally here. Filled with crewneck sweatshirts, New Era collabs, knit sweaters, and socks, the drop boasts plenty of outerwear, too — obviously. This Fleece Liner Jacket caught my eye. It’s more structured than most other entries to the categories and the pockets are a nice touch.

Price: TBD (Out 8/27 at 11 AM EST)

John Elliott Polar Fleece Parka

style

A John Elliott fleece jacket with a hood? Hell yeah. But do not wash it — for two reasons: it sheds microplastics and the brand says dry clean only.

Wythe Washed Pearl Snap Flannel Shirt

Huckberry

We love Wythe. The indie label’s making J.Crew-meets-Western look really, really cool. And that descriptor doesn’t even really do the pieces justice. Peep them for yourself, you’re sure to find something you like.

Price: $178

TOYS McCOY Lot 001Z Riders Denim

style

Courtesy

Japanese reproductions brand TOYS McCOY dropped its own ode to Lee’s Rider Jeans, the brand’s most popular style. (Think: what the 501s are to Levi’s, but to Lee.) They’re true to the original, all the way through the back patch. But they’re all TOYS: the patch says TOYS McCOY and so do the inside tags.

Price: $265

As if technical outerwear wasn’t expensive enough, Jil Sander and Arc’teryx debuted high(er)-end editions featuring the latter’s materials and the former’s luxury influence.
