Double-Breasted Wool Coat

The double-breasted coat has never really gone out of fashion — it has just gone through periods of being worn badly. Worn correctly, which means slightly relaxed through the body, lapels wide, and the belt left to hang rather than cinched, it is one of the most commanding things a man can put on. This one is cut exactly that way: a generous notch lapel, four-button double breast, and a length that hits mid-thigh and moves with the body rather than against it.

In black, coffee, and dark gray — worn here in black over a crew neck and cream trousers, which tells you everything about the range of contexts it covers. The kind of coat that works as well on a Saturday morning as it does leaving the office on a Friday evening.

The double breast is not a statement. It is a standard. One that most men have forgotten to set.
