Winter is a season when style is all about combining form and function. Stylish dudes primarily have to survive the brutal weather, but that doesn't mean the stunting has to go into hibernation. John Geiger, renowned sneakerhead and prolific participant in the streetwear community, can pretty much teach a PhD class on this subject, and we reached out to hear what he's rocking all winter long.

Even if he has one of the most extensive closets out there, true devotees to style like Geiger know that it only takes a few key items to stay fresh without deviating from who you are. From jackets to sneakers, scroll through to read John Geiger Break Down His Winter Essentials​.
