Corduroy Shirts and Trousers for Men: Warm Texture for Winter
This edit is all corduroy: shirts, trousers and a few polos, in cotton and cotton blends. Most pieces are regular fit, with slim-fit trousers too. Corduroy's soft ridged surface adds warmth and texture, so it is the fabric to reach for once the weather cools, from ₹2,299.
Corduroy shirts: three ways to wear them
- As an overshirt: wear a solid corduroy shirt open over a white or black T-shirt, sleeves pushed up. This is the easiest way into the overshirt look.
- Tucked for the office: a brown, green or blue corduroy shirt tucked into grey or beige trousers looks smart and feels warm on cold office mornings.
- Under a sweater: in Delhi or Shimla winters, a corduroy shirt with a crew-neck sweater on top is warm without a heavy jacket.
There are checks, stripes and prints too. Keep those for the weekend and let them be the only pattern you wear. The corduroy polos are a softer way to try the fabric; wear one with jeans at the weekend.
Corduroy trousers: regular or slim
Regular-fit corduroy trousers give room through the hip and thigh, a comfortable choice if you have been looking for a looser shape. Slim fits are narrower and look neat with boots or loafers. Shades include brown, black and British khaki. Wear them with a plain shirt or a polo so the texture of the cord stands out.
Colours and what to pair them with
Brown is the strongest colour in the edit, followed by white, green and blue. Brown corduroy pairs well with cream, olive and denim. Green works with beige and white. For a full corduroy look, wear a shirt and trouser in different colours, such as a green shirt with brown trousers, so the outfit does not look like a uniform.
FAQs

Can I wear corduroy to the office? Yes. A solid corduroy shirt with plain trousers, or corduroy trousers with a cotton shirt, both suit a smart-casual office.
What colour corduroy shirt should I buy first? Brown or green. Both go with jeans, beige trousers and white sneakers.
What shoes go with corduroy trousers? Suede or leather boots, loafers, or clean white sneakers for weekends.
