Men’s Hiking Outfits for Fall
Gear up for cooler temps with comfort, performance—and sun protection. Fall is prime time for hiking. Crisp mornings, colorful trails, and fewer crowds make it one of the best seasons to get outdoors. But dressing for a fall hike requires a bit of strategy: you want to stay warm without overheating, layer without bulk, and look good while doing it. Here’s how to build the perfect men’s hiking outfit for fall...
#1. Start with a UPF 50+ Base Layer
Even in cooler weather, sun exposure adds up—especially at higher elevations. A long-sleeve UPF 50+ sun shirt is your first line of defense.
JOJU’s men’s sun shirts are made from breathable Italian performance fabric that wicks sweat, dries quickly, and blocks 98% of harmful UV rays. Bonus: the tailored fit looks sharp on and off the trail.
#2. Add an Insulating Mid-Layer
Fall hikes often start chilly and warm up fast. A mid-weight fleece, thermal pullover or quilted vest adds warmth where you need it—without restricting movement.
Look for stretch fabric, moisture control, and zippered pockets for easy access to your phone or snacks.
#3. Choose Durable, Comfortable Hiking Pants
Skip the jeans. Go for hiking pants or trail joggers made from abrasion-resistant, quick-drying materials.
Look for articulated knees, breathable panels, and a bit of stretch for ease of movement. Earth tones like olive, charcoal, and khaki pair well with fall’s changing colors.
Layer Up with the Right Accessories
The details matter. Pack or wear:
A performance cap or wide-brim sun hat
Polarized sunglasses to reduce glare
Lightweight gloves for early mornings
A neck gaiter or buff for warmth and sun coverage
Wool socks + hiking boots or trail runners that are broken-in and ready to move
Plan for Weather Changes
Fall weather can shift quickly. Toss a lightweight, packable windbreaker or rain shell in your bag. It adds an extra layer of protection without weighing you down.
Why It Matters: Style Meets Function
You don’t have to choose between looking good and staying protected. The best fall hiking outfits for men do both. JOJU sun shirts are designed for exactly that: sleek, sun-safe, and built for adventure. Your fall gear should work as hard as you do.
