The Ultimate Men’s Flannel Shirt Guide for Autumn/Winter 2025
As the leaves turn golden and the temperatures drop, there’s one wardrobe staple that never goes out of style: the classic men’s flannel shirt. For Autumn/Winter 2025, flannel is not just about warmth — it’s about comfort, durability, and timeless style. Whether you’re heading to the office, the pub, or a weekend hike, a well‑chosen flannel shirt is your best layering piece.
What Makes Flannel Perfect for AW 2025
Flannel is a brushed fabric designed to trap heat while staying breathable. For 2025, we’re seeing a move away from dark flannel colours and a move to the light. Lighter colours to brighten even the most drab and dark ever shortening days. Which leads us on nicely to…
Trending Colours & Patterns This Season
- Earthy-light neutrals: camel, stone, and chocolate brown.
- Rustic checks: buffalo plaid, heritage tartan, windowpane.
- Deep winter hues with light creams: burgundy, forest green, navy contrast nicely with lighter colours to show off the timeless check pattern — perfect for pairing with denim and boots.
oglum’s Classic Flannel is a great choice if you want a versatile shirt that works from office to weekend.
Finding the Right Fit & Layering Like a Pro
Flannel can be styled slim for smart‑casual looks or relaxed as an overshirt. Consider:
- True‑to‑size for office wear with chinos and boots.
- One size up for overshirt style, layered over a roll‑neck.
Layer with:
- A quilted gilet for early autumn.
- A wool coat or parka for deep winter.
Caring for Your Flannel (So It Lasts)
- Wash on cool to prevent shrinkage.
- Avoid harsh tumble‑drying — air dry flat.
- Brush lightly with a fabric brush to keep the nap soft.
This not only keeps your shirt looking good but also helps reduce wear.
Stock alert: Our heavy classic flannels sell out fast every autumn — grab your size before winter hits. Popular sizes especially run out fast.
