All Saints – rugged worker trend

There has recently been alot of attention on more formal men’s fashion trends and the sophisticated look, I wanted to take a step back and look at the more rugged working class trend that All Saints seem to concentrate on. Looking through this seasons All Saints collection, they rarely break into any bright colours and add a rough and or dirty finish to some of the denim, footwear and shirts.

All Saints are still taking advantage of the popularity of the checked shirts, with a variety of styles and colour combinations in their new collection. All Saints shirts are generally thicker than other similar checked shirts on the market, adding to that ‘worker’ look and on a technical level making them more durable, they have also designed a padded quilted checked shirt which gives a real lumberjack look. When you have a checked shirt sorted the next step towards that rugged ‘worker’ look is pair of rough looking boots, All Saints is probably the best place to get a pair of these, as they have some good designs in their collection, different designs and different colours most of them with a rough/used finish.

With this worker look, it is one of the only times you can get away with wearing double denim, jeans with a similar colour denim jacket. As seen in the image above, where the model is wearing double denim with a burgundy checked shirt and rugged brown boots. It’s another look to think about and we’ve seen the likes of Justin Timberlake wearing denim jackets recently, as discussed in an earlier post.

All Saints also offer a range of accessories that can top off that working class trend, e.g. rough leather wallets, metal trimmed and washed leather belts, beanies and if you don’t fancy boots, they have rough looking hi-tops or plimsolls.
