Dockers, the clothing line from Levi Strauss & Co. that has re-branded itself as a bastion of all-American men’s style, is introducing a new high-end men’s line. The Alpha Collection, Lux Series harkens back to an earlier age of opulence through the use of rich textures, fabrics and patterns. Styles run from a chunky, blanket-inspired, shawl-collar cardigan and perfectly fitted pants in various finishes, to a handsome waterproof jacket that we truly covet.

One key element of the collection is the use of fabrics like plush twill, moleskin, flannel and corduroy that have a soft “hand” and keep the wearer cozy in all weather. Herringbone, houndstooth, waffle knits and more add to the mix. And to prove that Dockers has now gone way beyond khaki pants, there’s even a pair of double monk strap dress shoes in stylish suede. Price points for the collection run from $30 for a waffle henley to $188 for a quilted jacket, and all pieces are now available at Dockers.
