As summer winds down and the air starts to crisp up, now’s the perfect time to give your online stores a seasonal refresh. Fall brings a shift in what customers are looking for—not just in colors, but in comfort, function, and style. Whether you're building stores for schools, teams, employees, or fans, tapping into fall fashion trends can help your stores feel timely and boost sales.
Here are a few key trends to keep in mind:
Fall Color Palettes Are In
Think earthy neutrals and rich jewel tones—colors that feel warm, grounded, and perfect for layering. This season, rust, olive, plum, and deep teal are taking center stage. Want more inspo?

Cozy & Layer-Friendly Apparel
Fall is hoodie season—and your customers know it. Comfy pullovers, fleece crews, and slouchy zip-ups are fall staples that work across teams and organizations. Don't forget outerwear either: lightweight puffers, quilted jackets, and cozy shackets are in demand, especially for those who want to extend wear into winter.
Beanie Season Is Here
It’s not fall without beanies. Whether it’s a cuffed knit with a classic patch or a slouchy style with embroidery, headwear adds a seasonal layer and another opportunity for branding. Beanies also make great add-ons or upsell items in stores—they're stylish, functional, and easy to bundle.
