Men’s coats, jackets and vests FAQs

How should I style a vest?

Vests can be styled in a variety of ways depending on the occasion. For a classic look, pair a vest with a stylish men’s shirt, such as a button down shirt, and stylish moleskin jeans. Alternatively, you can pair a vest with a short-sleeved t-shirt and light-coloured denim jeans for a comfortable, contemporary look, suitable for work or leisure. Men’s vests can also be layered under jackets for a functional, warming look.

How should I care for a leather jacket?

Taking care of your men’s leather jacket is similar to caring for leather boots and will help to maintain its style and durability for many years. Firstly, keep your leather jacket clean by wiping off dust and dirt with a damp cloth and mild soap, then allowing it to air dry. Avoid exposing your leather jacket to direct sunlight or heat sources to prevent drying or fading. Conditioning is essential to maintain the suppleness of leather, so apply a leather conditioner to your jacket at least once a year. Store it in a cool, dry place with proper ventilation, avoiding plastic covers that can trap moisture. Ensure the jacket has enough space to hang freely to maintain its shape. Lastly, protect it from moisture and avoid prolonged exposure to rain or harsh weather conditions to prevent damage.

What’s the difference between a blazer and a sportscoat?

Men's blazers and sportscoats are both versatile wardrobe pieces, but they have distinct characteristics. A men’s blazer is a structured, solid-coloured jacket often in navy or dark hues, designed for formal and semi-formal occasions. It typically features metal buttons and a smoother finish. Alternatively, sportscoats are a more casual form of men’s outerwear, often patterned or textured, made with a variety of materials, and may include patch or flap pockets. Sportscoats are suitable for dressing up jeans or chinos and provide a relaxed yet stylish look. The key differences between these garments are in their formality, texture, and versatility, catering to different dress codes and occasions. Whichever style suits you, blazers and sportscoats both find their perfect complement in a pair of premium men’s leather boots.

What are the differences between oilskin, dryskin and waxed cotton?

Oilskin, dryskin and waxed cotton are all forms of water-resistant, treated fabric, ideal for use in men’s jackets and men’s coats. Oilskin fabric is generally made by immersing sturdy canvas fabrics in paraffin wax or oil to create a water-repellent surface with a light sheen. Dryskin fabric, on the other hand, has a matte appearance while still retaining the water-resistant properties of oilskin fabric. The waxed cotton in the R.M.Williams range is a proprietary, waxed-treated natural fabric renowned for its combination of durability, flexibility and lightness, making it perfectly suited for wear across the seasons.

What’s a practical outerwear jacket to own?

Jackets are a diverse type of garment, and deciding on the most practical shape, style or material will depend on where you plan to wear it. A light ‘overshirt’ style of jacket is suitable across the seasons and can easily be layered up or down depending on the weather and occasion. Similarly, a sportscoat is a versatile piece, making for a stylish men’s summer jacket for an evening outing or comfortable workwear. If you need a men’s winter jacket to see you through harsh weather, a waxed cotton coat is a heavy-duty garment you can rely on.

What are good men’s jackets and coats for summer and winter?

Some of the most useful men’s jackets are the ones that you can wear regardless of the season. Opt for a lighter, but weather-resistant jacket for year-round wear. Waxed cotton overshirt jackets or light coats can keep you warm with layering and insulated from the wind just as easily as keeping the sun off over a lighter outfit. Whether you expect a spot of bad weather in the midst of summer, or you need a reliable coat for everyday wear, a versatile men’s jacket can be the cornerstone of your wardrobe.
