Men's Winter Accessories: Scarves, Toques, Socks and More

Quick Answer: What Winter Accessories Does a Man Need?

  • A scarf in a classic check, plaid, herringbone or stripe
  • A knit toque, or a flat cap for milder days
  • Warm dress socks in patterns that add personality
  • A belt and accessories that coordinate with your winter colours

Choose a scarf in a colour that works with your coat, then add one accent piece for personality.

In a Canadian winter, accessories keep you warm on the walk to work or the wait for the bus. They also finish your outfit and add personality to a dark winter wardrobe.

Scarves

A scarf is the most stylish winter accessory and the most versatile.

  • Patterns: check, plaid and herringbone feel classic. Stripes feel modern.
  • Colour: grey, navy, brown and charcoal pair with most coats.
  • How to wear it: see how to wear a scarf with a suit for four easy knots.

Shop scarves.

Toques and Caps

A rib-knit toque keeps you warm and adds a casual finishing touch. A flat cap is a sharp option for milder days and pairs well with a wool-blend coat.

Dress Socks

Your socks are the easiest place to add winter colour and pattern. Choose a sock that shares a colour with your scarf or tie. Shop socks.

Coordinate Your Accessories

  • Keep it simple: choose one accent colour, like a burgundy scarf, and keep the rest neutral.
  • Coordinate with your coat: a grey scarf with a navy overcoat, or a navy scarf with camel.
  • Match your leathers: a brown belt with cognac shoes, or black with black.
