Check out our pick of the best bits of menswear from Meander Apparel below:
Meander Apparel Recycled Parka Jacket – £295
When the winter really sets in, you’re going to want a quality jacket to reach for and you’ll be hard pressed to beat the Recycled Parka from Meander Apparel (£295). It has been designed to take you through the elements and the Meander Apparel have used plastic bottles which been transformed to a three layer innovative soft shell fabric that’s waterproof and breathable. The hydrophilic molecular membrane swells in moisture, meaning the more you sweat, the more moisture can be transported outward. The fabric and membrane used in their parka are made entirely from recycled plastic bottles. by using the same raw material for the membrane and layers of fabric, Meander Apparel have also ensured that the finished product is fully recyclable, where many waterproof membrane fabrics are not. (£295)
Meander Apparel Weekender Tee – £59
This classic looking tee is a cut above the competition and sits close to the top of own Christmas list here at The Coolector. The Weekender Tee from Meander Apparel (£59) was born from the brand’s attempts to create the perfect tee and it pretty much looks like mission accomplished to us. It combines Eco Dri release and Polygiene anti-odour technologies for the ultimate t-shirt that you can wear from Friday morning to Sunday night without having to wash it. You can take the Weekender tee on your travels, daily commute or simply enjoy lounging in the luxurious tee all weekend long. It boasts an understated design without any external branding, one t-shirt that’s all about the premium performance fabric with a relaxed silhouette. (£59)
Meander Apparel Adventure Trousers – £89
We love a comfortable pair of trousers here at Coolector HQ and, quite frankly, they don’t come any more comfortable than the Adventure Trousers from Meander Apparel (£89). As comfortable as your favourite sweatpants, the Adventure Trousers are highly water repellent performance trouser that you can wear on a bike ride into the office without changing on arrival. Crafted from a lightweight technical fabric with 4 way stretch, water repellency and breathability for comfort in all weather conditions.

Meander Apparel Everyday Meander Sweater – £75
Perfect for your layering endeavours this winter, the Meander Apparel Everyday Meander Sweater (£75) is a great looking, minimalist marvel. It is a classic sweat made with soft brushed organic cotton and treated with Polygiene anti odour technology which means you can wear it all week long without the need to wash it. It has been crafted from organic cotton which is grown using methods and materials that have a low impact on the environment while maintaining soil fertility and eliminate the use of toxic substances in pesticides and fertilisers. The organic cotton uses significantly less water (up to 88% less) and less energy (up to 62% less) to grow compared with non-organic cotton and significantly reduces greenhouse emissions so this is genuinely a sweater you can feel good about wearing. (£75)

Stylish and understated, the Nomad Bomber Jacket from Meander Apparel (£225) would be our top pick for a lightweight jacket this winter. It is a classic wool bomber jacket which has been reinvented with a waterproof and breathable membrane that makes it a much more versatile offering than the norm. Born out of frustration with endless bombers that don’t offer protection from the elements, the Meander Apparel Nomad Bomber is designed for those with a sense of adventure.
