The Hermès men’s winter 2025 line-up is a thoughtful take on modern menswear, with pieces that marry relaxation with refined style. Cuts are generous and welcoming, creating inviting garments ideal for warding off the winter chill. Lines are dynamic and rounded while maintaining a pleasingly sharp, urban silhouette.

Underscoring Hong Kong’s growing prominence on the global fashion circuit, the collection was showcased at a special presentation in the city on September 19, and streamed around the world on hermes.com.
Particularly noteworthy was the spectacular choice of venue: the Kai Tak Cruise Terminal, with its breathtaking backdrop of Victoria Harbour and Hong Kong’s iconic skyline. The choice of Kai Tak comes as it celebrates its 100th anniversary as a locality synonymous with glamorous travel, having been the site of Hong Kong’s airport from 1925 to 1998, and now being the location of a cruise terminal designed by Foster + Partners.

Fittingly, for such a venue, much of the Hermès men’s winter collection revolves around movement and dynamic, flowing contrasts: front versus back, inside and outside, visible versus invisible. Linings can be removed to suit the climate and the wearer; pockets are engineered to expand to suit daily needs. It’s an approach that unites functionality with personal expression. The colour palette is a masculine blend of muted tones ranging from charcoal grey and prunoir, to chrome green and bronze, offset every so often by lively hues from blood orange to vanilla for warmth and depth.

Although the collection riffs on classic essentials, it is infused with what Hermès dubs a “disciplined informality”. Short silhouettes, unstructured shoulders and trousers with sharp lines create a balanced and modern look.

Fabrics are a particular feature, from snowy alpaca, cashmere flannel and plush velvet, to sheepskin, shaded bouclé and teddy mohair. Winter-ready details, including hoods, balaclavas and blanket-finished parkas, underscore the collection’s focus on warming yet stylish cool-weather clothing.
