Men's Anklet

Are anklets becoming a popular trend in men’s jewellery?

Men’s anklets are becoming a popular trend in men’s jewellery, particularly within streetwear, coastal fashion, festival looks, and minimalist jewellery trends. They’re not as common as men’s bracelets, chains, or rings, but are quickly growing as men’s jewellery becomes more experimental and personal. 

Jewellery trends in 2026 are centred on self-expression and layered accessorising, rather than sticking to a strict “masculine” jewellery styling rule. Cross-cultural inspiration is another key factor behind the rise in popularity of ankle bracelets for men. Borrowing from other cultures and traditions, this minimalist style of jewellery acknowledges the beauty and self-identity found in various accessorising options worldwide. 

Men’s anklets are becoming especially popular for summer styling, pairing them with linen, sandals, and oversized comfy shirts. It’s a fun way to add another element of personality without wearing heavy jewellery, making it ideal for warmer weather. 

How can men style anklets for casual or beach-inspired looks?

Men can style anklets for casual or beach-inspired looks by:

• Pairing a silver men’s anklet or stainless steel option with linen shorts and an oversized shirt, providing a crisp, coastal edit 
• Add a woven or cord anklet to a look alongside sandals, slides, or a barefoot outfit for a relaxed look 
• Combine anklets with cropped trousers or cuffed pants, subtly showcasing the accessory 
• Keeping the outfit lightweight and relaxed, maintaining an effortless feel 
• Choose waterproof jewellery to ensure they maintain their look even after water exposure, whilst also not irritating the skin

Men’s anklet styles work best when they look effortless rather than overly styled. Beach-inspired looks in 2026 feature layering and natural textures, making these casual jewellery pieces an easy addition. 

Which Camile & Stone men’s anklet designs are most versatile?

•  
• Our Classic Twist Rope Anklet, which is a thicker option that adds a rugged, textured energy to your look

What materials are best for durability and everyday wear?

The materials that are best for durability and everyday wear include:

• Stainless steel, an incredibly durable, waterproof, and tarnish resistant option. It’s high-quality enough to be worn daily without it impacting its aesthetic qualities
• Titanium, which is a lightweight, hypoallergenic material option. It’s ideal for those with skin sensitivities
• Solid gold or 18k gold, which adds a luxurious shine to every piece and makes them feel premium 
• PVD-coated jewellery, adding scratch and tarnish resistance to each piece. PVD coating is used on the majority of our pieces, and is 10 times stronger than classic gold vermeil 
• Woven cords and anklets are durable options, however weaker fabrics can wear over time 
• Genuine leather anklets develop a stunning patina over time 

Ultimately when choosing men’s anklet jewellery for everyday wear, durability and comfort are the most important factors. Choosing materials like stainless steel, titanium, sterling silver, and solid gold balance longevity and comfort, whilst also requiring a minimum amount of maintenance. 

How subtle or bold should a men’s anklet be for modern styling?

How subtle or bold a men’s anklet should be for modern styling entirely depends on your taste and desired aesthetic. Those who prefer a more understated collection of men’s jewellery may prefer a minimalist, subtle option that doesn’t draw too much attention. On the other hand, those with expressive style preferences may want to choose pieces that add detail in a bold way. 

Traditionally, men’s jewellery that showcased more of an opulent aesthetic was more aligned with wealth and a higher place in society. These ancient jewellery ideals were communicated in styles like signet rings and bold cuff bracelets, representing the wearers power and strength. Modern adaptations invite this bold curation into your edit in contemporary forms, aligning sculptural designs with subtle styling. 

Why is men’s jewellery evolving into a key fashion trend in 2026?

Men’s jewellery is evolving into a key fashion trend in 2026 because of the expressive opportunities they provide. Whether a man prefers an eccentric textural addition to their outfit, or prefers a classic, vintage-inspired piece, men’s jewellery is developing to represent each type of style. 

Social media and celebrity influence have also been key drivers of the trend, with the 2026 Met Gala Red Carpet playing host to this concept. Celebrities like Bad Bunny wearing brooches and bracelets have showcased that adding a male anklet to your collection is an expression of your inner fashion preferences.
