We designed this transitional styling guide around the biggest street style and runway trick of the season: treating knitwear as a sculptural accessory rather than a base garment. By draping men's cable-knit crewnecks and fine merino sweaters loosely over the shoulders of men's striped oxford shirts or tying them at the waist above men's pleated chinos, we create instant three-dimensional depth and effortless coastal preppy nonchalance.

You need durable trousers with substantial crotch gusseting that permit explosive split-leaps and vaults while maintaining a clean streetwear silhouette.
