September is a tricky month in Australia, sure we’re likely to see a little more sunshine but you wouldn’t want to bet large on that temperature gauging notching into the beach-going territory. So suitably, we’ve dug around for some fits that’ll keep things sharp on the street but with enough cold-weather protection to brave the breeze. 

Here are 8 things you should cop for spring: 

A workwear staple, the chore coat is the ultimate versatile wardrobe addition; layer it under a puffer, throw it over a white t-shirt the world's your oyster.  This Stan Ray number  in the herringbone colour that perfect combination of casual —fancy enough for a job interview but also not out of place at the pub. 

Ah the  Nike All Conditions Gear , it's just that little extra elevation in the style department from the tick. This  classic black hoody  just gives enough away with the small orange emblem, it's not showing off but it's also not afraid to let em know. A garment of choice for spring, it's got a fleece-cotton lining so it'll keep you warm and it's black—so it will go just about everything. 

Absolutely brimming with tradition, the  874  from  Dickies  are some of the hardest-working pants out there. The  ultra-clean white fit  is a bold move because of the stain potential but catch them out on a clear sunny day and you're cooking with gas. The fit is straight as they come with a little added room down the knee to paint the house or give it a nudge out on the town. 

Got to keep the dome protected and maintain that outdoor clout,   Patagonia  trad caps are the way to go—it's simple, it's sustainable it ticks plenty of the boxes. This smooth operator in the ' Plume Grey ' has the iconic Fitzroy ranges logo and a nice adjustable strap that you can tailor to your preferred size. 

Sure it's a little more exxy but this hits two major points: one, it's made from  terry towel cotton —the comfiest thing to touch your skin and the undoubtedly biggest fabric trend of 2022. Two it's got that flex of colour, it's  dopamine dressing 101 . The quality of the English-made garments of  Percival  is also well cemented now, worn by both Avengers  Tom Holland  and  Chris Evans . 

Unless you've been living under a rock, you would've noticed that the  mule revolution  is in full swing. These  slip-on sensations  from Merrel are sleek AF and will transform your life and wardrobe—trivial shoelacing no more. The  Merrel Hydro  comes in a number of colourways and is a no-brainer for the spring and summer season, outdoor walks, swimming at the beach or drinks in the park. 

Do you know what's absolutely unreal?  Hemp . You may think cotton is the bees-knees but a good  hemp t-shirt  will revolutionise your life. The Afends team has been crafting  these planet-friendly numbers  for some time and the fit combined with the breathability and comfort is second to bloody none. 

In a colourway described as '  Piedmont Grey and Sheet Rock ' the only thing we can comment on is that these neutral tones  ASICS  are straight fire. The clean slimmer-style silhouette of the  1180s  allows them to pair with just about everything, they've also got the  GEL technology  cushioning so they're like walking with pillows strapped to your feet.
