Sport Coats
Why
Soft in the shoulders and slightly relaxed, these modern jackets exemplify the current movement of "dressed down tailoring" that's defining the way stylish men want to dress these days.
Origins
Originally, sports coats were worn as casual attire for watching outdoor sports. And with time, they came to be used on more formal occasions.
How to Wear It
Choose from seasonal fabrics like corduroy and wool or go with a simpler cotton version. Layer one over your T-shirts and sweaters or a traditional shirt and tie.
What to Look for
Slim sleeves with high armholes for ease of movement and a nipped waist for a lean silhouette. We also appreciate plenty of pockets.

Button
Know-HowNo matter how many buttons your jacket has, you should never button the last button. Unless, of course, you have a one-button jacket. Then feel free.
