Whether it’s dressing up a fresh shirt for a date night look or throwing on a pair of 502’s before running out the door, Levi’s has been a go-to staple since 1853. As we approach cooler days in Australia and fade out the dwindling heat, the new Levi’s Autumn / Winter 2022 collection consists of playful colour-blocked tees and reimagined denim cuts. As highlighted in our sustainable men’s fashion piece, the high calibre brand has also been recognized for its recent efforts in leading the charge for responsible production. With several environmental initiatives outlined on their site, the new collection takes another step in bringing eco-conscious purchases to the top of mind.

Evoking the casual and expressiveness of the ‘70s, the line brings assorted jeans along with subtle graphic tops. However, Levi’s goes even further to approach the designs with a ‘90s lens giving the release an edgier, looser and more adaptable feel. The clothes bring a refreshing modern twist to basics, though Levi’s never strays away from its heritage features. Moreover, as we delve into Levi’s AW22 drop, we begin to recognise some trends that are sure to be leading the forefront of men’s fashion this season.

For Autumn / Winter 2022, Levi’s brings to life the dynamic of menswear and utility wear. Exploring this intersection through archival styles from the 80s and 90s, the line comes with several casual slouchy shirts – perfect for throwing on under a signature denim Levi’s jacket. The quintessential 501 jean also makes for a baggier bottom, keeping comfort ever-present in everyday fits. Other staple favourites include The Fishing Jacket and So High Flare Pantalena Pant. When paired together, the bottoms are nostalgic for the past, while the fishing jacket brings in a utilitarian nod to the future.

This collection also packs in a punch with its versatility. Ranging from the classic 501 to expanded silhouettes like sweats, Levi’s ensures you’re covered for work from home hours to a day trip with friends. The go-to pants also come in a range of washes, ranging from deep indigos to more worn out shades of light blue. Once again pulling inspirations from the past, the shades play up the ‘80s and ‘90s style; the colour only looks better with age.

In addition to the new garments, Levi’s has also released articles for the ladies, complete with hoodies, retro vests, and sleek straight pants. Levi’s Autumn / Winter 2022 collection is now available for purchase in-store and online.
