We all know that outerwear is needed for utilitarian reasons like keeping your chest warm in brutal cold winds, and keeping you dry in crazy snowstorms (definitely biased as I am writing this from Toronto Canada during a crazy #Snowmageddon), but your jackets are also the perfect way to make a style statement when you're freezing. Today, I am sharing five coats that every guy needs in their closet:
SHEARLING AVIATOR
perfectly cosy and also perfectly stylish,
this 70s inspired look has had a major comback
the last few seasons, and it's not going anywhere
BOLD OVERCOAT
a good pattern overcoat can seriously
take a simple outfit to the next level,
and is great for days that aren't too cold
BELTED WOOL COAT
the bulky wool blend coat is both chic and warm,
a necessity in canadian winters, but adding a belt
takes it to another level, making it super sophisticated
PATTERNED KNIT
for autumn days (or miler winter days) when a bulky coat
is not so necessary, opting for a longer patterned knit cardigan
is a great option and shows effortless cool vibes
TRENCH COAT
Nothing beats a classic Trench coat, especially
for windy and rainy days, and the great thing is that thins
can be worn belted, or barely on and draped
BOMBER JACKET
such an easy way to bring some street edge to an otherwise
more conservative outfit, a good bomber jacket is essential and
also keeps you warm! opt for a conventional colour
No shortage of outwear inspiration in the menswear world right now! And you might have noticed that the classic parka didn't make it on this list? That's because THAT is a given in Canadian winters.
What is your go-to winter coat?
