Colorado Winter Streetwear
What could be some cool streetwear for the winter time? I was thinking more casual and I love cream-colored beanies. If anyone has any cool ideas let me know!

Beanies, vintage patagonia synchillas/bombers or a melanzana fleece, story mfg graphic T/plain white T, double knees/fatigues/Gramicci pants, hokas/salomons/norda/blundstone. Definitely avoid slim fit hiking pants (wide are cool tho) and modern patagonia fleece vests/better sweaters.
@chris_ta_pher works at canoe club and is an all around cool guy. Denver just got a Blue in Green store too which is worth checking out.
One fit that’s lived rent free for a while was an older lady in a beat up orange puffer jacket, a flannel, lightwash straight fit jeans, and Blundstones. Imo that formula is what Colorado dressing is about.
To change it up, you could go with Snowpeak, for a more Japanese take on gorpcore.
Lots of Carhartt, Patagonia, Arcteryx and North Face worn around here for sure. Anything outdoorsy / gorpy / workwear adjacent like the previous commenters mentioned. We can also get away with some western flair being in Colorado 🤠 like vintage denim jackets, cowboy boots, turquoise jewelry etc depending on your vibe. The style here is extremely laid back and not formal at all so definitely lean into whatever you’re comfortable in. Thrifting / vintage is pretty big here too, i’ve had great scores at local ARCs in the area over the years 👍
as for shops located in the Denver area, i always prefer secondhand so ARC and Mile High Thrift are my top suggestions. There are Topo Designs, Patagonia, Arcteryx stores in Denver as well as a flagship REI. Wilderness Exchange is cool too. I’d recommend Steadbrook but sadly it closed
also +1 Canoe Club
I really appreciate you taking the time to type this all out! ❤️
I really enjoy some of the pant's you recommended, primarly the Gra,icci pant. also the blundstone boots look great. I'll deffinatly have to stop at Blue in Green next time I head up to denver, they seem to have a nice selection of modern denim. Do you happen to have an image of the fit of that lady? I can't seem to find it😂
I like they're stuff! But a tad pricey. Would you reccomend anything in specific from them?
They usually have a sale once a year, so I wait for that. I like their sweaters.
She was at the post office off broadway and cedar lmao
ohh you saw her lmao! i thought she had an image of her. broadway is a fun street to drive along!
