The season has turned and Monocle is pleased to announce the launch of seven new collaborations with leading international designers in time for the cooler months. All products are available at The Monocle Shops in London and LA, and online at monocle.com.

Monocle x Woolrich Jacket II – Limited Edition
Following the sell-out success of the Monocle x Woolrich Summer Jacket, this limited edition winter jacket is perfect for autumn and has been designed by Woolrich's designer Daiki Suzuki specifically for the Monocle reader. Constructed from sturdy army dock canvas and featuring details such as detachable hood, pop up collar, adjustable waist and zippered back pockets, this robust yet striking jacket is available in Olive and Navy and only 50 of each colour have been produced.

Monocle x Drakes London Scarf
Monocle's second Drakes collaboration sees tartan making a highland fling across 100 per cent lambs wool, in brown and blue versions. Knitted in the Scottish Borders, the wool has been boiled to felt the wool fibres, and then cut and sewn back to together to create a bold patchwork effect.

Monocle x Tomorrowland Sweatshirt
Spun from Suvin Gold cotton farmed in India, Japanese retail giant, Tomorrowland has produced this cosy navy sweatshirt, available in small to extra large. Made on traditional Japanese looms dating back to the 1920s, the high quality yarn means the sweatshirts won't loose their shape when washed. Each sweatshirt features navy and white striping on the cuff, neck and waist, and the discreet Monocle 'M' mark, resting above the hip.

Monocle x Oliver Spencer Oxford Shirt – Limited Edition
A Monocle favourite, Oliver Spencer stands as a benchmark of quality among British fashion brands and these Oxford shirts are the embodiment of his style. Available in white or blue and strictly limited to 60 in each colour, the range is made from 275 GSM cotton. The tailoring takes the classic Oxford and adds Spencer's signature slim cuff, divided pen/passport chest pocket and a hidden card/cash pocket in the side seam for those trips to far-flung destinations. Available in collar sizes 15 to 17.

Monocle x Porter Garment Bag
Designed to help you get past the sneaky one-bag-only officials at the airport, this bag comes with a compartment to fold up a suit in, as well as turning into a hanger at the other end to sort out any creases. Including pockets for accessories and your passport, it folds up to the size of a small briefcase.

Monocle Linen Notebooks – New Edition
Designed by the Monocle team in London and produced in Germany by Brandbook.de, this linen-backed notebook comes in one of three colours – red, slate and airforce blue.

Monocle x Delvaux Newspaper Bag
For the first collaboration with the world's oldest fine leather luxury brand, Monocle includes the limited edition Newspaper Bag. With enough space for a laptop, plus two external straps for slipping in a copy of your favourite paper, it has been produced exclusively for Monocle in the woven Toile de Cuir and lined with Basane leather.
