Men's coats include peacoats, wool coats, winter parkas, waterproof jackets and windbreakers.
The wool coat for men is worn in the city over a suit or a sweater, like the peacoat Armor-Lux; the hooded parka Krakatau offers better protection against damp cold and wind.
The Armor-Lux Cap Sizun peacoat, from the French brand in Quimper, features the classic sailor coat design with a double-breasted front. The men's peacoat is typically worn over a nautical sweater or shirt, paired with raw denim or chinos.
The Faguo Cheverny parka from the French brand, the Schott Nelson and Keyburn parkas from the American brand, and the Krakatau Planck parka are worn throughout the winter; the men's parkas also include the Didriksons Akilles and the press-stud parka Revolution. The men's parka is worn over a thick sweatshirt or a sweater, with the hood up in snowy weather.
For rain, the Helly Hansen Munich INS waterproof jacket from the Norwegian brand, the Fred Perry Brentham jacket, and the Patagonia Torrentshell can be worn in the city or while walking. The KnowledgeCotton Apparel Climate Shell from the Danish brand in Herning and the H2O Rømø LW Packable, which folds into a bag, complete the men's raincoat.
The men's wool coats or tweed jackets, whether straight or double-breasted, are suitable for the office and outings; they reach down to the knee and cover a suit jacket. The long men's coat closes over a turtleneck or a shirt and tie.
Depending on the use: a wool coat for town and the office, a hooded parka for dry cold and snow, a waterproof jacket for rain. Length matters too: a mid-thigh model covers a suit jacket, while a short model can be worn with jeans. The coat size should be measured with a sweater worn underneath.
The men's jackets take over in mid-season, while men's down jackets keep you warm without the weight of wool fabric. For both men's and women's models, the coats and parkas bring together the entire selection: the down jacket or coat is chosen based on the cold and outfit.
Navy blue and black go with everything, from suits to jeans; camel and grey warm up a city outfit; khaki and olive green suit parkas and casual wear. A navy blue coat is worn with derby shoes or white trainers, while a khaki parka is paired with ankle boots.
The men's winter coat is chosen in thick wool or lined, with a collar that rises to the neck. The black men's coat dresses up a suit as well as jeans and a turtleneck. The short coat, stopping at the hips, allows more freedom for walking and driving; the long coat, below the knee, offers better protection from the cold.
The cheap men's coat can be found in men's special offers and men's clearance, and the men's new arrivals showcase the season's models. At the end of November, the Black Friday for men lowers the prices of parkas and peacoats. Fast shipping and best price guaranteed.
Your usual size if the coat is worn over a shirt or thin sweater, one size up if worn over a suit jacket or a thick sweater. Shoulders should sit just right and sleeves should cover the wrist: the right size is checked with arms extended.
Brush it after each wear, air it out on a wide hanger, and have it dry cleaned when it gets dirty. A stain can be dabbed with cold water without rubbing: wool fabric felts in hot water.
Choose a solid-coloured parka, navy blue, black, or khaki, long enough to cover the jacket. With derby shoes or leather ankle boots, the parka over a suit remains understated for the office.
A simple rain jacket blocks wind and water but provides little insulation; a lined or quilted model keeps heat better. In extreme cold, a fleece under the waterproof jacket adds a warm layer.
A short or mid-thigh coat, straight and fitted at the shoulders, avoids flattening the silhouette. The peacoat and short jacket elongate more than a long parka: the short cut showcases the legs.
