A new take on the urban male wardrobe this season

As seasons trends come and go, it might not be practical to do a complete wardrobe overhaul but its always refreshing to update with a few key pieces. Channel the stylish urban male with H&M menswear collection for spring/summer 2015. Blousons, biker jackets, parkas, denim jackets, and blazers are paired with tech zip-ups, heat-sealed shirts, and scuba-look sweatshirts for a modern-day take on city dressing.

H&M menswear spring/summer 2015 collection

The urban mens wardrobe is always evolving. For spring at H&M its a strong look that combines updates to modern essentials with sportswear-inspired pieces in innovative fabrics. The feel of the city comes across in a graphic palette in shades of black, gray and white, with pops of green for a contrasting statement, says Andreas Lwenstam, H&Ms head menswear designer.

Themes include fresh twists on urban classics, like a cotton denim jacket in black or white; a half-lined blazer in memory-effect fabric; a metallic or linen pilot jacket, and a lived-in leather biker jacket. Technical fabrics add futurism, such as an apple-green mesh zip-up pilot jacket or a sweatshirt in scuba-look fabric printed with sci-fi imagery.

Skinny jeans are patched at one knee, while tailored pants are cropped, and sweatpants are in jersey or imitation leather. Essentials have new energy, such as a crisp white poplin shirt with a heat-sealed pocket, an apple-green tech-knit sweater, and scoop-neck or leather T-shirts. Key accessories in the collection include the leather tote bag, classic black lace-ups, and sneakers.

The H&M menswear spring/summer 2015 collection will be sold in 150 stores worldwide as well as online from March. Go to hm.com
