Café Mountain SS25: A Ruggedly Refined Wardrobe for the Modern Explorer

With each season, Café Mountain refines its take on menswear essentials that blend function with craftsmanship. The British brand’s SS25 collection continues this tradition, delivering a carefully curated mix of outerwear, shirting, and staple pieces that nod to classic styles while embracing modern fabric innovation.

A standout for the season is the introduction of Raindrop Camo—a subtle rework of a military classic—making its debut on the Telemark Jacket. Meanwhile, the Foray Popover Smock takes on an ‘Antique’ patina dyeing technique, ensuring that no two garments are ever the same. This attention to detail is what sets Café Mountain apart: every piece tells its own story.

Heritage construction meets contemporary versatility in the Reverse Panels Workers Jacket, available in Navy and Cocoa, alongside the Reversible Mountain Fleece, which flips between an Italian virgin wool blend BOA fabric and a cotton ripstop alternative. These dual-purpose designs underscore the brand’s philosophy of creating garments that transition seamlessly between urban and outdoor settings.

The shirting selection strengthens this season, highlighted by a madras patchwork fabric and the effortlessly luxurious Japanese lace vacation shirt, which comes in two understated yet impactful colorways. Even the smallest details reflect Café Mountain’s commitment to quality, with eco-friendly corozo nut buttons adding a natural finish to select pieces.

Of course, no collection would be complete without the brand’s signature graphic staples. The Clubhouse Tee—an ode to shared passions and community—returns, alongside heavyweight sweats and t-shirts bearing Café Mountain’s collegiate-inspired logo.

Since its founding in 2021, Café Mountain has cultivated a reputation for producing ‘Well Balanced Leisure Goods’—an ethos that runs through every stitch of SS25. Rooted in traditional garment-making techniques but never bound by them, the brand continues to explore new textures, dyeing methods, and fabrications, all while staying true to its North East England origins.

For those who appreciate clothing that speaks to both heritage and innovation, Café Mountain’s latest collection is well worth the investment.
