The 10 Best Corduroy Styles for Winter 2011

Wool is cool for the winter and all but there are other textile options to consider. The grampa-esque neglected step-child, corduroy has the perfect texture to keep you warm through this blistering cold. The compiled fabrics form vertical ridges called wales that eminently trap heat. Worn casually, corduroy generally comes in the form of blazers and pants but many designers this season are incorporating the textile in shoes and accessories. From the sick Sperry Top-Sider x Band of Outsiders boots to the velvety stretch cotton Rugby blazer, we always hook you up with the best gear the online world offers. Ribs for the win.
