The question of what to buy during winter sales is one that many of us ask ourselves right after the holiday season. With countless items on our wishlists, new drops, and essential winter pieces like coats and sweaters, making the right choices can be overwhelming. At Urbanstar, we've created the perfect guide to help you navigate the sales and find the essential pieces for your wardrobe.
When Do the Urbanstar Sales Start?
Our winter sale starts on December 31, 2024, with pre-sale items, and will continue throughout the month of February 2025. After that, any remaining items will be discounted in our Outlet section. Once you've found the perfect item, we recommend purchasing it as soon as possible before it sells out. Figuring out what to buy during winter sales just got a whole lot simpler.
What to Buy During the Winter Sales 2025: Tips for Men
While there's no one-size-fits-all guide to winter sales, making informed decisions should involve a careful analysis of your wardrobe's needs. Let's start by identifying the must-have items for men's fashion this winter: jackets, coats, sweaters, pants, and sneakers. The strategy should be to invest in high-quality pieces that will last for years to come.
Winter Coats and Jackets: Your Essential Purchases
Let's delve into the heart of the matter: what to buy during winter sales. We'll focus on outerwear first: jackets, coats, bombers, and Japanese-inspired varsity jackets. To help you find the perfect jacket, we offer a wide range of products that cater to both streetwear and more classic styles.
Perfect Winter Puffer Jackets
The North Face Nuptse 1996 goose down puffer jacket is the iconic nylon model to protect you from the cold and wet. Alternatively, we have a Stone Island model: a stitchless padded jacket that is incredibly comfortable and stylish. If you're looking for a more classic model, the Pyrenex Stan puffer jacket is a great option, with raglan sleeves and a water-repellent, windproof glossy fabric.

Streetwear Jackets and Bombers
If you prefer a bomber or utility jacket to a puffer, we suggest the 2-in-1 blouson (which can be transformed into a poncho with zipped pockets) by Fumito Ganryu, made of high-quality nylon. Another streetwear classic is the Carhartt WIP Ryaley jacket: made from durable, waterproof Dearborn cotton canvas, this jacket is also padded and lined with recycled polyester taffeta. For a more classic look, we recommend two must-have men's fashion items: the black wool coat by Etudes and the iconic Baracuta raincoat.

First, analyze your winter wardrobe and ask yourself if you're looking for versatile basics or more unique pieces. You can opt for both, adapting your choice to the context (more or less formal), the occasion, or your personal style.
Simple and Unique Men's Sweaters
We start with Stone Island's selection of sweaters: whether you're looking for a crew neck, turtleneck, or zip-up cardigan, the Italian brand is the perfect choice. The color range is also complete: from deep dark colors like black to neutral tones like beige, and softer shades like navy blue. Stone Island sweaters are the perfect choice for those seeking updated basics of the highest quality. If you're looking for something more unique, we suggest our selection of Japanese streetwear. A highlight is the mohair jacquard sweater in vibrant yellow by South2 West8.
