Whatever winter means to you, weā€™ve got you covered. Whether youā€™re holding on for dear life like the homies in Hobart and Melbourne, or winter is no more than a light breeze (shout out to our friends up north) StockX has something for you. Hiding out in the west? Yeah, I don’t know. Buy some more shorts, I guess? Anyway, let’s dive into our favourite winter drip down under. Letā€™s go.

Winter Drip

Fear of God Essentials Pullover Hoodie Applique Logo

Hey, look! You must be in Melbourne! Or maybe you just have a thang for black on black on black. Or as Jerry Lorenzo calls it, ā€˜Dark Slate/ Stretch Limo/ Blackā€™. Either way, the Fear of God Essentials Pullover Hoodie is one of the biggest selling items on StockX, and for good reason. Tonal branding sits atop a premium cotton and polyester blend with the signature Essentials relaxed fit.Ā 

Itā€™s cosy enough that it will become your go-to hoodie immediately, but fancy enough that youā€™ll style it up for the ultimate winter ā€˜fit.

Kith Valley Tapestry Throw Blanket

I have this blanket and let me tell you, it is divine. I feel like you can only use that term for desserts and homewares. I drape it over my legs when Yellowstone is on, and I pretend Iā€™m right there at the Dutton Ranch.

Anyway, the Kith Valley Tapestry Throw Blanket is around 1.7m x 1.25m, so comfortably big enough for a couch session or as a stylised throw blanket over the corner of your bed. Itā€™s made in the USA and comprised of a soft cotton fabric at 1100gsm. It features a fringed finish and a leather label. Kith donā€™t do a lot of these sorts of elaborate homewares, so itā€™s always a good idea to scoop them up when you can – because you never know when the next piece will drop.

Winter Drip Supreme

Supreme Hand Warmer

This is the ultimate product for a post-pandemic world, keeping you nicely insulated from unwanted handshakes this winter and keeping your hands as toasty as possible.

The hardwarmer includes an attached waist strap and is constructed of Cordura nylon fabric with a Polartec fleece lining. It dropped all the way back in 2018 but guess what? it’s still cold so it stays popular. Cop yourself this handwarmer today to keep warm for those upcoming winter months.

Winter Drip Curry

Jordan 1 High Element Gore-Tex Light Curry

Here it is. Two icons of the ā€˜90ā€™s coming together on the ultimate modern culture product. Michael Jordanā€™s Jordan 1, mixed with George Costanzaā€™s Gore-Tex.Ā 

The Air Jordan 1 High Element GORE-TEX Light Curry features a white GORE-TEX upper with Light Curry Durabuck overlays, black collars, and reflective Swooshes. At the heel, GORE-TEX branding highlights the design’s weatherproof technology. From there, a matching Air sole completes the design.

ā€œItā€™s Gore-Texā€ – George Costanza, 1994.

Supreme Motion Logo Beanie

Did you know that Supreme’s Motion Logo is a head-nod to the cult-classic mob film, Goodfellas? If you re-watch it youā€™ll note the title scene features similar imagery applied to the title of the movie.Ā 

But thatā€™s not why this beanie is a cop. This beanie is a cop because the white is a nice change up from everyone else rocking black beanies all winter, and because youā€™ll look super cute at the snow this year living some winter wonderland fantasy as the white Motion Logo beanie perfectly frames your face. So cute. Get a selfie and put it on the feed – thatā€™s how cute this beanie is.

The North Face 1996 Retro Nuptse Packable Jacket

I bought a jacket just like this one a week or two ago (not exactly the same, but same enough) and Iā€™ve barely felt the cold since. Iā€™ve barely felt anything, beyond a deep sense of satisfaction. The North Face 1996 Retro Nuptse Packable Jacket feels exactly the way it looks like it feels – toasty. If you donā€™t yet have one of these in your wardrobe (you really should), nowā€™s the time to pick one up and be the envy of the whole squad – except me. Because I bought one recently, did I mention that?

Yeezy Gap Hoodie Red

If you thought this hoodie was ever going to fall off, you were wrong. The Yeezy Gap Hoodie remains super popular on StockX, thanks to the signature cropped fit and dropped shoulder. The 100% cotton hoodie is the perfect layering piece – it looks boss under a jacket or just over a t-shirt, and the red colour slaps. Go get it.
