Get your style ready for April showers with a classic trench coat.
Spring outerwear is an entirely different beast than fall/winter outerwear. For the spring, lightweight is the name of the game.
Today, we’re highlighting three ways to wear one of the menswear’s most classic lightweight outerwear pieces: the trench coat. Hey, April showers are right around the corner!
THE MORE YOU KNOW: Where did trench coats originate?
1. Classic Business
| WEARING | Trench Coat c/o Lands’ End, Vintage Yves Saint Laurent suit, Neiman Marcus shirt, Brooks Brothers tie, Briefcase c/o Korchmar, Shoes c/o Allen Edmonds
A trench coat always looks great paired with a suit. For me, it’s an archetypal business look complete with a bit of old Hollywood style and sophistication. Never a bad choice.
2. Business Casual
| WEARING | Burberry Brit trench coat, J.Crew blazer and jeans, Al Bazar shirt, Gitman Bros. tie, Filson briefcase, Boots c/o Allen Edmonds
For business/sharp casual outfits, a shorter trench is a good option. It’s less formal than the classic version and is a little bit easier to style in a variety of settings. A great option for a day at the office followed by a happy hour drinks date.
3. Weekend Ready
| WEARING | Trench coat c/o Lands’ End, Levi’s sweatshirt and jeans, Common Projects sneakers
Trench coats aren’t just for the day-to-day work grind. Repurpose it for a casual weekend outing for some edgy high/low style.
