Fashion-wise, the Sundance Film Festival—if mainly by virtue of it taking place in snowy Park City, Utah—has a reputation for being the crunchiest of the major film festivals. Where Cannes has couture gowns on seaside red carpets and Venice has designer duds on canal-bound speedboats, Sundance has parkas and snow boots on icy sidewalks. But if you know anything about the kind of cold-weather menswear we dig around here (the weirder, the better), that actually means we’re bound to see some great duds.
Since the fest kicked off in Park City (which you may also recall as the site of another major style event: Gwyneth Paltrow’s ski trial) last week, the Hollywood stars promoting their indie-leaning projects have taken to the snowy streets in their winter best. We’ve got Steven Yeun, gorpcore maestro, in a hefty wool overcoat and some lace-up hikers. Josh O’Connor in a cutie windbreaker and—what else?—a pair of Sambas. Zack Fox in below-the-knee jorts, gleaming white socks, and boat shoes. We come to this place (the cinema) for magic, and boy, have we found it here in Utah.
Scroll on to see the best, and weirdest, menswear from the 2025 Sundance Film Festival thus far.
