Off-White’s Off-Beat Take on the Basics

“Elevated basics” is a term that gets thrown around a lot by clothing manufacturers, but most of them offer little in the way of innovation beyond a few trite twists. Off-White, a pillar of streetwear style, actually delivers on their promise of elaborated essentials with high-quality and subtle takes on your most beloved styles.

At first glance, Off-White’s clothing seems casual and low-key enough to pass for everyday basics. But once you get up close, you’ll notice that Off-White is far more than ordinary.

The White Tee

What could be more versatile, more effortlessly cool, and more classic than the white T-shirt? Worn by everyone from James Dean to Brigitte Bardot, everyone looks good in a white tee. If the basic cotton version seems a little done, though, Off-White’s low-key variations let you elaborate on the perennial favorite. Mesh detailing, a bespoke print or a mock neck help you set yourself apart from the crowd.

The Leather Jacket

A leather jacket is the mid-weight layer that everyone needs in their closet come chilly weather. It’s so easy to do wrong and so hard to get right that when you find a good one, it’s imperative that you snap it up. Off-White’s leather moto jackets hit all the essential notes—a cross-over zipped closure, multiple pockets and soft, supple hide—but add a fun twist with a panel of stripes or a printed logo.

The Throw-On Sweatshirt

You can do better than that ratty old hoodie. Off-White offers easy-to-wear sweatshirts in neutral greys, blacks, whites and greens that go with everything while avoiding excessive simplicity. Artful, intentional distressing and thoughtful details like a screenprinted wave or a slight dose of chevron set them apart from your average warmer.

The Skinny Jeans

A good pair of skinny jeans is a little bit like a unicorn—it’s hard to find, but when you do, worth holding on tight to. Off-White’s skinnies are simple and wearable, but it’s their perfect distressing and masterful fit that make them special. Whether you go bold with a screenprinted logo or subtle in acid wash, Off-White’s denim is always a home run.

Off-White’s takes on the most versatile items in your closet are just as wearable as the basics, but there’s so much more to them.
