An array of men’s accessories trends are leading the pack this year. Handbags and jewelry remain strong categories in 2025, as more male shoppers look for accessible and convenient ways to accessorize their looks. Many of these trends were prominently seen on the spring 2025 runways of designer labels such as Fendi, Louis Vuitton, Dior and more, and have been reinterpreted by the masses to add personal touches to their looks. Here, WWD rounds up the five men’s accessories trends to watch this year.
Shoulder Bags
The men’s handbag category has been booming over the last few years as male shoppers have become more accustomed to accessorizing their everyday looks. For 2025, the accessory is still going strong, with larger shoulder bags reigning popular. The style made a major impact on the spring 2025 men’s runways, seen in various colors and fabrics from designer brands including Ami, Dior, Fendi, Emporio Armani and others.
Silver Jewelry
Men’s jewelry is another strong accessory category that has continued its popularity over the years. As the price of gold continues to rise, many shoppers are looking more to silver jewelry as an accessible alternative across retailers. Silver jewelry also plays into the rise in heirloom and vintage-style jewelry that’s been prevalent in street-style trends.
Statement Baseball Caps
Baseball caps have long been a go-to accessory to finish off a look. The spring 2025 street style saw the accessory in full force, with many fashion week attendees adding a hint of nostalgia to their looks with a vintage-inspired baseball cap displaying various logos or graphics.
Shield Sunglasses
Futuristic sunglasses are making an impact this year, with many opting for shield sunglasses designed in myriad colors and with mirrored lenses. The style first took off in the ‘90s and made a resurgence last year thanks to the 2024 Paris Olympics that ushered in several sports-inspired trends. The popularity of shield sunglasses is continuing this year, as the trend is still being embraced by celebrities and the street style set.
Flat Shoes
Ultra flat shoes were an unexpected trend that popped up on the spring 2025 runways in an array of styles like loafers, slippers and boat shoes. The styles were seen on the runways of Fendi, Courrèges, Jacquemus, Loewe, Louis Vuitton and more.
