Spotted at the COS Show: The Leather Coat and Plaid Shirt That *Will* Sell Out by October 1

Though there was plenty of fall 2025 inspiration on the runway at COS's New York Fashion Week show this weekend, what stuck with me most from the event, held at Greenpoint Terminal Warehouse in Brooklyn, were two specific COS items that didn't make it onto the runway. Instead, they were both released ahead of the official fall/winter 2025 collection and were worn by a bevy of chic attendees. Now, I'm predicting a quick and thorough sellout of the two popular pieces. What were they? Keep reading.

The first was COS's Checked Flannel Shirt, which comes in tan and blue plaid. Both colorways were represented on guests at Sunday's show. Plaid shirts have been rising in the ranks of fashion this year, but most of the options on the market are expensive—like really, really expensive. COS's two options are priced under $150 but look just as luxurious as their designer alternatives. I'm not the only person who thinks so. I heard the like from at least five of the people seated around me. At the warehouse presentation, I saw the shirt styled in various ways. For example, WWW editor Anna LaPlaca wore hers with a knee-length, tobacco-colored suede skirt.

More impactful, though, was COS's Croc-Embossed Leather Coat, the unofficial street style star of the day. The shell is made of chocolate-brown heavy-duty leather, which explains its slightly higher price point compared to most COS outerwear. Trust me—it's worth the cost. I, as well as a handful of other attendees, was lucky enough to wear the knee-length, single-breasted topper, so I know firsthand just how high-quality it is and how many people displayed interest in buying one of their own.

Both pieces are guaranteed to sell out. It's just a matter of whether or not you secure them in your size before that happens. For safety, I'd act fast. I'd be willing to bet that both will be long gone by October 1. Scroll down to shop the viral COS fall 2025 items and see how cool people styled them at the NYFW show.
