Brendon Babenzien is back with NOAH's brand new Fall/Winter 2023 collection, and boy is it a killer. Street styles with an edge of contemporary punk is what makes up the core of this nifty new collection, much in line with the regular themes we've seen from Babenzien over the years with various different capsules. In addition to the variety of long sleeve shirts, chinos, and other essentials needed for the upcoming fall and winter seasons, the brand is also introducing their very first custom-made footwear style design (outside of collab footwear that is) as a necessary complement to the clothes your honor.

What's more? There's also three new pants styles to give you more to work with for that capsule wardrobe of yours: the Double Pocket Chino, Inverted Pleat Trouser and the Pleated Fatigue.

Let us guide you through some of the notable standouts in this collection:

The Buckle Loafer

NOAH

The Buckle Loafer: Made in Portugal; 100% leather; debossed graphic on footbed; based on a traditional women’s shoe, a style NOAH hadn’t seen done before in the menswear space; comes in two colors Black with silver buckle and Burgundy with brass buckle.

Pleated Fatigue Pant

NOAH

Pleated Fatigue Pant: 100% cotton Japanese twill; two colors Black and army green; classic army pant silhouette with really subtle updates including adding the pleat.

Double Pocket Chino

NOAH

Double Pocket Chino: In between military and prep; again, with subtle details, back belt and double loops hints to military, cuffs and double pocket more fashion choices

Inverted Pleat Wool Trouser

NOAH

Inverted Pleat Wool Trouser: Fabric is Super 120s wool sourced from England; inverted pleat makes for a more modern heading and a bit less hang than the double-pleat.

When breaking down the collection, it's easy to see Babenzien's vision. In fact, you can read what the designer had to say about this collection himself:

"While attempting to write an explanation for the inspiration for Noah’s Fall/Winter ‘23 collection, I remembered two quotes, both from author, naturalist, and abolitionist Ralph Waldo Emerson:

“To be great is to be misunderstood.”

And

“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.”

"I didn’t realize it before, but I’ve been trying to honor the individuals in my life that have inspired me by being themselves. People who were pioneers in the world of music; from punk to new wave to hip hop artists all doing their own thing; to skateboarders, painters, and writers. But most of all, the ‘as of yet’ unknown individuals in every town and city across the globe, who don’t quite fit in today, but we all know are really just ahead of the rest of us.

Thank you to all of the outcasts and pirates."

Noah's Fall/Winter 2023 collection will available to shop on 8/17.
