COS
Bear Grylls//Digital Spy Along with being warm, stylish and retro (in the best kind of way) corduroy is the kind of material that gets better with every wear and adds a smart matte finish and texture to everything from trousers to outerwear.
We're particularly fond of this unstructured black blazer from COS that can be worn as a layer under a larger outerwear piece or as soft tailoring on top of a t-shirt or classic white shirt.
It'll do a lot for you (or whoever you gift it to) basically.

Oliver Spencer
Bear Grylls//Digital Spy Based on a vintage style from the '80s "when shirts had softer constructions" apparently, this 'New York Special' shirt from Oliver Spencer is indeed very soft, as well as stylish and safe enough that you're pretty much set, whoever you buy it for.
Unless the recipient is a cat or something.
