New Fall Branded Apparel: Our Top Picks to Keep Your Brand On-Trend
Seasonal depression (for those of us in New England) is what Florida residents assume is just a figment of the imagination. However, us four-season state dwellers know it’s a real phenomenon. One wicked Wednesday we wake up sun-kissed, sweaty, ready to stick to the leather seats of our cars; and by Thursday we are cussing at Jack Frost, pre-warming our cars, and deciding which jacket goes with our plaid brown trousers. When the colder weather hits and we say goodbye to summer the way a kid has to leave a playground to go take a nap, we pivot quickly to find brands that make the colder months much more bearable.
NorthPoint has taken it upon themselves to help find the cure for seasonal depression, and it all starts with brand-new fall apparel pieces that could be confused for a warm hug. We could ramble on about the color options, the textures that are softer than still water, or the styles straight from a magazine (honestly, we will anyway), but these pieces are where function meets intention, and seasonal depression meets “not in my house mother f—” (you get the point). Now let me introduce you to NorthPoint’s top picks!
TravisMathew came out with a waffle-knit quarter-zip, but hold the butter and syrup. This quarter-zip will practically force-feed your body the serotonin it's lacking at 4:30 PM that the early New England sunset might take away. The TravisMathew Waffle Knit 1/4 Zip lets you mourn the loss of summer looking like a high-end sweet treat.
New Era got an invite to the party with a plus-one (ooh la la) – New Era’s Heritage Fleece 1/2-Zip (men's and women’s companions). This 1/2-zip is an ultra-soft, high-loft fleece that will single-handedly insulate your fragile spirit against a chilly breeze, transforming that seasonal affective disorder into an outside & office-approved streetwear movement.
The North Face didn’t need an invite because this brand started the cold-weather-goes-corporate-apparel party. The North Face Iron Drift Quilted Shirt Jacket (men's and women’s companions) serves as a protective barrier against the violent onset of New England’s polar vortex. From outdoor trails to urban sidewalks, the water-repellent shirt jacket gives you versatility no matter the environment, along with lightweight warmth for any season.
The Mercer+Mettle Long Sleeve Twill Overshirt was a hungry neighbor looking for fall-apparel friends and fun. Constructed from stretch twill and faux horn-rimmed buttons, this sleek overshirt is giving (as the kids say) boardroom blazer with a sprinkle of low-key-layering-piece, so effortless you will stop checking the weather app every 5 seconds. An overshirt that keeps you looking impeccable while you mentally grieve the warm days.
Carhartt actually built the foundation of the cold-weather-apparel-party house, but they received the invite anyway. The Carhartt Gilliam Jacket brings lightweight warmth, with a durable & dependably water-repellent coverage for your fear of the freeze. When the seasons shift from “mild autumn” to “unforgiving arctic tundra” in less than an hour, this bulletproof Cordura shell and triple-stitch-seamed ultralight jacket steps in to keep your body, mind, and spirit from feeling the need to hibernate.
Stanley/Stella was an undecided RSVP until they found the perfect colors to wear to the event. The Stanley/Stella Chaser Hooded Sweatshirt is engineered with an ultra-plush 8.3-ounce organic cotton fleece; this drawcord-free hoodie is plush, warm, and inviting… unlike the weather outside 👀.
The District MelloFleece Crew entered the house unannounced like a swift, cold breeze through a cracked window. Some might say it’s a security blanket of lightweight thermal material, and others are obsessed with the colors. Whichever party-goer you happen to be, this crew neck has a laid-back fit and plush combed cotton-poly blend of "what-even-is-seasonal-depression anyway?!"
We saved the best for last: the MiiR party people that brought the clouds, warmth, buttery feel, and borderline make up the whole guest list. Heads turn, people do double takes, and Claudia won't stop taking pictures. For the last time Claudia, PUT THE CAMERA DOWN. MiiR showed up and showed OUT this season with a plethora of pieces packed with Japanese-inspired seam lines, water-repellent shells, and cloud-like spacer knits. This collection proves your brand can survive the frozen windshields and arctic commutes in absolute luxury. To name a few of our favorites: MiiR® Sashiko Full-Zip Stretch Puffy, MiiR® Kumo 1/4-Snap Pullover, MiiR® Women’s Sashiko Stretch Puffy Vest, & MiiR® Women’s Kumo Full-Zip.
Together we are defying seasonal depression with one new fall piece of apparel at a time, or 10, maybe even 20. It all starts with keeping you warm, cozy, stylish, and your brand on-trend with what’s hot. (Pun fully intended.) Whether you are bundling for the frosty morning commute or taming the crazy going on inside your head (“it was just summer two seconds ago…!”), our new fall collection is here like a portable heater and a helping hand. Step into the chill and show the world that seasonal gloom ends where your branded logo begins.
