Chunky chains
This classic jewellery for men is back in fashion. Men don’t enjoy too many options for jewellery but this accessory was a total rage in the ’90s. With time, the popularity of chunky chains waned.

Be it a date night or a family dinner, this classic piece of jewellery never fails to impress. Remember, the key to pulling off this eclectic accessory is minimalism. So, keep the rest of your look understated, and pair the chain with a shirt or jacket.
Varsity jackets
Also known as letterman jackets, varsity jackets date back to the 1930s. It is a part of American jock culture, originally worn by high school athletes. If you’ve watched any American high school movie, it’s difficult to miss spotting the varsity jacket. Varsity jackets are called so because they feature the name or initials of the athlete’s school. The jocks at Harvard University were the first ever to sport one. The trend picked up among athletes to eventually become a staple in menswear fashion.
