This is what you need for this spring! Trend fashion roundup
High school boys' fashion for spring 2025 is dominated by designs that are both comfortable and stylish.
This season, eco-friendly items made from sustainable materials and 90's revival styles are especially popular. Another feature of this year's trend is the ability to enjoy a rich variety of coordination with a small number of items by wearing one item in a variety of ways.
We want to keep it in mind! Trend keywords for spring
Here are some trend keywords that you should pay special attention to in men's fashion for spring 2025.
The first and most important is the "oversized silhouette. Slightly generously sized tops and pants continue to be popular.
This is not only a fad, but also has the practical advantage of easily accommodating the changing body shape of growing high school boys.
The next trend to keep in mind is "pale tones. Pale blues, greens, lavenders, and other gentleCOLORare very popular in this year's men's fashion. They are especially suitable for school life as they give a fresh spring-like impression. The darker colors such as black and navy blue, which are often seen in conventional high school boys' fashion, are being replaced by the darker shades of blue, green, and blue.COLORBy incorporating these pale tones into high school boys' fashion, you can transform your look into this year's style at a stroke.
Another important keyword is "mixed style. For example, mixing different tastes, such as combining sports items with street fashion or fusing casual and beautiful, has become the mainstream style.
Examples include coordinating sweatpants with shirts or sneakers with chinos. This mix-and-match style is easy to put your own spin on and is a great way to express your individuality.
Be fashionable every day with a one-week outfit coordinator!
The "dress-up" coordinate is a strong ally for high school students on a tight budget, as it allows them to give a different impression every day with a limited amount of clothes.
The basic method is to use simple basic items and create variations by changing accessories and the way they are matched.
For example, a white T-shirt can be worn casually with a denim jacket on Monday, beautifully with chinos and a cardigan on Tuesday, and street-style with an overshirt on Wednesday. Even with the same items, just by changing the order in which they are worn or the combination of the items, the impression can be changed dramatically.
The secret to layering is in the "layering": by wearing a shirt over a T-shirt or a jacket over a parka, you can expand the range of your coordination.
For example, if you have a basic set of white T-shirts and black skinny jeans, you can create different outfits for the week by simply changing the outerwear and accessories you wear over them. By changing the outfit: denim jacket on Monday, plaid shirt on Tuesday, cardigan on Wednesday, mountain parka on Thursday, sweatshirt on Friday, and so on, you can create a fresh look every day even with a limited number of items.
Another key to dressing well is the use of accessories, bags, shoes, and other small items. Even with the same outfit, a different pair of sneakers, a cap, or a different bag can change the impression. Sneakers, in particular, are an important item that can affect the overall impression of an outfit, so it is convenient to have a pair in a basic color.
A collection of recommended coordinates by scene
The lives of high school boys consist of various scenes.
From daily life at school, to holidays with friends, to special dates, knowing how to coordinate fashionably for each occasion will help you feel confident at all times. Learning the appropriate fashion for each scene is also the first step in learning the proper etiquette for adults who consider TPO.
Stand out at school! Coordinate your daily wear
Even if your school has a uniform, you may have opportunities to wear casual clothes after school or on holidays.
Here are some stylish coordinates that will make a difference at such times. At school, it is important to find a balance between not being too flashy and having your individuality shine through. Try to coordinate in a way that sets you apart from your friends, but also makes a good impression on your teachers.
The basic rule is to choose items that are simple, but with attention to texture and detail. For example, even a plain T-shirt can give a different impression depending on the thickness of the fabric and the degree of closure at the neck. Of particular note is the combination of an oversized T-shirt and slim pants. By leaving a little room in the upper half of the body, a good sense of slackness is created, creating a casual, yet modern atmosphere.COLORThe taste is based on basic colors such as white and black, with a hint ofCOLORThe fashionable pale tones that are in vogue this year can be used as a base color for a more fashionable look.
At school, ease of movement is also an important point. By choosing items that not only look good but are also practical, such as stretchy pants and lightweight, functional outerwear, you can spend a comfortable time even after wearing them for a long time. Specifically, we recommend a style that combines stretch denim with a sweatshirt hoodie. This is a perfect balance of sporty and casual, making it a perfect coordinate for school life.
Shoe selection is another important aspect of school coordination. Clean sneakers are recommended because they can be easily coordinated with any outfit and are not tiring to wear all day long. White sneakers in particular are a versatile item, so if you have a pair, you can use them for a variety of coordinates.
Go all out casual on your days off! Holiday coordinates
Holidays are a great opportunity to enjoy your favorite style more casually than at school.
On holidays, when people often spend time actively going out with friends, shopping, etc., we recommend coordinating your outfit in a way that is both easy to move around in and unique. The charm of holiday coordination lies in the fact that items that are difficult to incorporate at school andCOLORThe charm of holiday coordination lies in the fact that you can enjoy items and usages that are difficult to incorporate at school to the fullest.
The royal road to holiday coordination is the relaxed style of "big silhouette T-shirts and wide pants. By combining oversized tops and bottoms, which is a trend this year, you can create a modern and relaxed look at the same time.COLORFor taste, boldly choose bright colors and prints to express a holiday-like sense of openness. For example, a T-shirt with a graphic print and wide denim will instantly create a street-style styling.
Also, we recommend the "big hoodie" as a unique holiday item. By choosing a slightly larger size, you can achieve both a cozy and comfortable look.
By wearing a simple T-shirt or long T as an inner layer underneath, you can achieve a well-balanced coordination in which the hoodie takes center stage. The hoodieCOLORis recommended to choose neutral colors such as beige or gray, as they go well with any bottoms and are easy to wear.
The use of accessories is also a key point to take your holiday coordinate up a notch.
Incorporating items such as caps, bucket hats, and shoulder bags will complete a more casual and trendy styling.
In particular, this season, 90s-style bucket hats and small shoulder bags are trendy, so incorporating these items will increase your stylishness.
Date coordination for a more favorable impression on a date!
For high school boys, date fashion can be especially nerve-wracking.
However, if you keep a few points in mind, it is surprisingly easy to create a date coordination that will make a good impression on your date. The most important aspect of date coordination is cleanliness. Even if the items themselves are simple, just choosing items that have been washed properly and are wrinkle-free will make a big difference in your impression.
The "shirt and chinos" combination is recommended for date night. A casual shirt can be worn over a T-shirt with the buttons open or the sleeves rolled up to create an impression that is not too stiff.COLORChoosing fresh light blue, white, or pale pink for the taste will give a sincere and favorable impression. For chinos, choose basic colors such as black or navy blue, which can be easily matched with any top for a well-balanced look.
Light outerwear should also be incorporated for the change of season. The key is to choose casual yet moderately elegant items such as denim jackets and sweatshirt blousons. Be careful not to wear clothes that are too rough, as this may give the impression that you are taking the date lightly.
Specifically, simply choosing a cardigan instead of a hoodie or chinos instead of jeans will help you coordinate a casual yet sincere look.
Paying attention to fragrance will also make a good impression. Avoid perfume that is too strong, and use a fragrance or body mist with a faint scent.
A clean, fresh scent will make the other person feel that you are paying attention in a subtle and thoughtful way.
Styling techniques for different body types will boost your confidence!
Understanding the characteristics of your body type and knowing how to style your clothes to make the most of them is extremely important for enjoying fashion.
Even with the same clothes, dressing according to your body type can make a big difference in the way you look and give you more self-confidence. Here we will focus on short and chubby body types, which are particularly problematic, and explain in detail the techniques for styling and slimming down.
Style-enhancing techniques for short people
One of the most common concerns of short high school boys is that they look childish.
However, with proper styling, they can look more imposing than their actual height. The most important aspect of styling for short people is to emphasize vertical lines.
First, the tops and bottomsCOLORare close in tone, the eye will be drawn up and down, creating a vertical line effect. For example, a navy top and dark blue pants can be worn together.COLORis an effective technique. Don't match your entire body with the sameCOLORMonotone coordinates are also useful in creating a vertical effect. Especially, darker colors such as black and navy blueCOLORwill make you look more stylish.
The choice of bottoms is also important. Wide pants and baggy pants tend to make legs look shorter, so choosing pants with a slim silhouette will have a leg-lengthening effect. However, skinny pants that are too thin may conversely make the legs look thinner and shorter, so slim pants with a moderate fit are recommended. In addition, the hem of the pants should be long enough to show a little of the ankle to give a clean look and enhance the leg-lengthening effect.
The use of small accessories is also effective. For example, socks should be as similar as possible to pants.COLORFor example, socks should be the same color as the pants as much as possible, or should be kept out of sight, so that there is no gap from the ankle down, which creates a leg-lengthening effect. In addition, choosing clean-design sneakers or loafers instead of thick-soled shoes will create a well-balanced look. Thick soles can make you look taller at first glance, but be aware that they can make your feet look heavier.
Slimming coordinates for chubby people
For chubby high school boys, it is more important to create a well-defined silhouette than to make body lines less noticeable.
Hiding the entire body with loose-fitting clothes can make the body appear larger than it is. The basic idea of slimming down is to create a "crisp" look.
First of all, try to find a good balance between the top and bottom layers. For example, choose tops that are a little generous in size and bottoms that have a sleek silhouette to create a stylish impression. Particularly recommended is the combination of an oversized shirt and tapered pants.
Shoulder widthBy choosing a shirt that is roomy around the chest and waist, you can naturally cover up your body lines, while tapered pants that taper toward the hem will make your legs look sleek and neat.
COLORAnother important point is the use ofDarker in areas where body shape is a concern.COLORfor areas where you want to emphasize the body shape, and lightCOLORand patterns for the areas you want to emphasize.This is a good way to control the eye. For example, if you are concerned about your tummy area, choose a dark-colored top and brighten it with pants and accessories.COLORand bright colors in pants and accessories. Tops with designs that emphasize vertical lines (such as vertical stripes) and V-shaped open necklines also lead the eye vertically, making you look sleeker.
Layering techniques should also be utilized. For example, wearing a long cardigan or shirt jacket emphasizes vertical lines and creates a sleek impression. However, too many layers will make you look bigger, so the key is to keep it to two or three layers. Specifically, simply wearing an open-collared shirt over a T-shirt will create vertical lines and a style-enhancing effect.
Recommended items by popular brands
Brand selection is essential when discussing high school boys' fashion.
Depending on your budget, there are a variety of choices, from cosy casual brands to high-end brands to wear on special occasions. Here we introduce the features and recommended items of each, and use them as a reference to find the brand that suits your style.
The strongest in cosmopolitanism! Three popular brands
There are many cosy brands that allow high school students to enjoy fashion even on a limited budget.
Here we introduce three brands that we particularly recommend.
The first recommendation is UNIQLO. This brand is attractive for the high quality of its basic items and its reasonable price range. In particular, items with excellent functionality such as "Air Rhythm T-shirts" and "Ultra Stretch Jeans" are ideal for daily use. Designer collaborations are also regularly held, and trendy items are also available. For example, the combination of a white AIRYTHM T-shirt and stretch jeans is a versatile coordinate that works well for both school and casual occasions.
The second recommendation is GU, a brand that offers trendy items popular among teenagers at reasonable prices, especially items in this year's big silhouette trend. Oversized T-shirts and wide pants are items that easily incorporate trendy silhouettes. For example, GU's big T-shirts and wide denim complete a trendy street style.
The third recommendation is MUJI. This brand is known for its simple, never-boring designs and quality materials. In particular, "organic cotton T-shirts" and "stretch chinos" are very cosy items that are comfortable to wear and can be used for a long time. Since many of the items are plain, they are easy to combine with unique items from other brands. For example, you can enjoy combining a simple MUJI T-shirt as a base with a colorful GU overshirt.
What these brands have in common is that they offer a full lineup of basic items. In particular, having basic items such as T-shirts and pants from these brands will create a base for total coordination. Then, by adding items from other brands little by little according to your taste and personality, you can create your own unique style.
Coordinate one rank higher with the high brands you admire.
For special occasions or as a reward to yourself, you can incorporate high-brand items that will last a lifetime.
It is also fun to collect high-brand items little by little, as they will lift your overall coordination.
First of all, we would like to focus on "Ralph Lauren.
The classic American style is a feature, and "polo shirts" in particular are items that raise the level of coordination just by having one. The simple design with embroidered pony logo is suitable for a wide range of styling from casual to beautiful.
For example, a Ralph Lauren polo shirt paired with chinos will complete an elegant casual style suitable for a date or a special outing.
The next recommended brand is "North Face. Although it is an outdoor brand, it is also a popular brand for street wear.
In particular, "mountain parkas" and "sweatshirts" can be worn for a long time as items that combine functionality and design. For example, by adding a North Face parka as an accent to a simple coordinate, you can instantly create a sophisticated impression.
The key for high school students to incorporate high brands is to "throw in one item" to balance the overall look. Instead of having the whole outfit in high-brand clothes, choose one main item and have the rest of the clothes in cosmetic brands, so that you can create an economical and tasteful coordination.
For example, we recommend mixing UNIQLO T-shirts and jeans with a North Face jacket, or GU pants with a Ralph Lauren polo shirt.
Another appeal of high brands is that they can be used for a long time.Durability from quality and timeless designcan be said to be rather cost-effective in the long run.
It is also a good idea to ask your parents to buy one item for you, especially at milestones such as entrance into school or graduation. Considering the future, it is recommended to choose an item with a classic design that is not easily influenced by trends.
A must for fashion beginners! The basics of how to dress
Many beginners are interested in fashion but do not know where to start.
By understanding the basic tips on how to dress, you can overcome your dislike of fashion and take the first step toward finding your own unique style. For beginners, getting the basics down is the shortcut to fashion.
Dressing Tips by Item
The first thing that fashion beginners need to understand is how to wear basic items. Here, we will explain specific dressing tips for each typical item.
First, let's look at "T-shirts," which are the most basic of all fashion items, but the impression they give can vary greatly depending on the size of the item. For beginners, we recommend a size that falls just below the shoulders or a size that is slightly larger.COLORThe most important thing when wearing a T-shirt is to "look good. Take care to keep it free of wrinkles and stains, and after washing, hang it up to dry in good shape to keep it in good condition for a long time. As a specific example of how to wear a white T-shirt, a monotone coordinate of a white T-shirt and black skinny pants is a simple yet sophisticated styling recommended for beginners.
Next, let's talk about "denim pants. Denim is easy to match with various tops and is a strong ally of fashion beginners. The first point to choose is to select standard dark blue (indigo) ones.COLORThose with faded or damaged finishes have a strong individuality, so if you want to choose the first pair as a basic item, we recommend a simple dark blue.
For the silhouette, a slim tapered style is easy to balance and shows off the line of the leg nicely. The hem of the denim should be long enough to show a little of the ankles for a modern and stylish look. For example, dark blue slim denim and white sneakers will create the basis for a versatile coordinate that goes well with any top.
Finally, let's talk about "shirts. A casual shirt is a versatile item that can be worn alone or over a T-shirt. Beginners should choose a white or light blue shirt made of oxford material.COLORIt is recommended that beginners start with basic shirts made of oxford material, such as white or water color.
For casual wear, roll up the sleeves or leave the hem out to give a less formal impression. On the other hand, if you want to wear it neatly, iron it properly and button it up.
As a specific example, rolling up the sleeves of a white oxford shirt and pairing it with chinos will complete a clean and fresh look.
Advanced fashionable techniques are taught!
Once you have grasped the basics of fashion, it is time to try a higher level of fashionable techniques.
You only need to know a few tricks to imitate the sophisticated way of dressing of an advanced fashion expert.
The first thing to keep in mind is the "layering technique. By not only layering clothes but also varying the length and texture of the clothes, a three-dimensional coordination with depth can be completed. For example, "layered T-shirts," in which a slightly longer long T-shirt is layered under a shorter T-shirt, is an advanced technique that can be easily adopted. With innerwear and outerwearCOLORcontrast between the inner and outer layers to create a more coordinated look. For example, you can wear a black open shirt over a white T-shirt, and then add a beige jacket,COLORThe gradation of tastes creates a sophisticated impression.

Another advanced technique is "taste mixing. Daring to combine items of different tastes creates a unique and sophisticated impression. For example, sporty jersey pants and a clean shirt, or a casual T-shirt and a tailored jacket can create an unexpected coordination. The key to using this technique is to consider overall balance. Basically, it is easier to adopt this technique if you "separate the taste in the upper and lower body. Specifically, a combination of street-style clothes (hoodies and sweatshirts) on the upper body and clean-looking clothes (chinos and tapered pants) on the lower body is an example of taste mixing that even beginners can easily try.
In addition, the "technique of using accessories" should not be overlooked. Even basic coordination can be enhanced with a dash of fashion with the right accessories.
For example, a simple monotone coordinate withCOLORFor example, colorful socks and caps can be added to a simple monotone coordinate to create a sophisticated impression. Also, small accessories such as watches and accessories can add a mature look by adding them in a subtle way.
