Men's coats

An outer garment, the coat is the first thing you notice about a man. Its cut, its quality and its finishing details are therefore important, and they often reveal the personality and the preferences of the person wearing it. To avoid lapses of taste, it is important to choose carefully the coat that will set you apart from the crowd with a touch of elegance and distinction. But what are the criteria for choosing a fine coat?

A functional garment

Beyond looks, the coat meets a need for function and practicality in a garment used against the winter cold and the rainy autumn weather. So you need a good-quality coat that will stand up to all weathers year after year. As for the size, you should always choose a well-fitted coat to avoid drooping shoulders, while the classic colours are grey and navy.

Coat styles

Depending on what you expect in terms of elegance, function or value for money, there are different styles of coat and all you have to do is choose the one that suits you best. Among the models in fashion right now, you have the choice between: The pea coat Originally worn by sailors, the pea coat is that short coat which is perfect for shorter men but which dresses those over 1m75 just as well. At once relaxed and stylish, the pea coat is often made from wool blended with a synthetic fibre to make it waterproof. A versatile garment, the pea coat adapts to every style of dress. The parka Functional and practical, the parka is the waterproof coat you bring out to fight the cold and the rain. Depending on what you are looking for, the parka comes in many models of differing lengths. In terms of features, there are parkas with a fur-trimmed hood and a lining. The choice of fabric is also very wide, ranging from cotton to synthetic fabrics. The mackintosh Better known by its short name "Mac", the mackintosh is an English coat made from a particularly waterproof rubberised cloth. Its straight cut now goes with a relaxed style of dress. The trench coat While the spring trench is made from cotton, the trench coat is made from wool for elegance. Worn by slim, imposing men, this coat highlights the line thanks to the belt at the waist and its length, which stops at mid-thigh. Compared with the spring trench, it is far less waterproof. The duffle coat The originality of this coat, also called a padded jacket, is much sought after by young people, who pair it with a relaxed style. Made from thick wool and fitted with a special fastening system, the duffle coat is perfect for fighting the winter cold. The overcoat The overcoat is recognised by its classic cut, its sobriety and its elegance. The favourite coat of men in their fifties, the overcoat is made from wool and becomes the outer garment that protects you from the cold when a suit is required.

A different coat for every situation

As with the suit, the choice of coat depends essentially on the build of the person wearing it and on the setting. Some short coat models will be appreciated by shorter men, while tall, slim men will prefer coats with a fitted cut. Finally, the overcoat and the trench coat are often required in a formal environment, while the pea coat and the duffle coat are to be worn for a relaxed atmosphere.

Find out more about men's pea coats

Military in inspiration, pea coats are short, double-breasted coats that dress men through the winter season. Their carefully worked cut shows off the curves of the upper body, the chest and the face. Originally cut from navy wool, the pea coat is now available in different styles. To choose the model that will suit you best, let us go back over everything that defines the pea coat.

The pea coat through history

The pea coat was one of the garments that marked the history of clothing. In the British Navy, a short double-breasted coat was created to make it easier for sailors to move when climbing the masts. In the eighteenth century the pea coat became the Prince of Wales jacket, recognisable by its double-breasted front and its slanted pockets. For working hours, the pea coat was sewn from navy cloth lined with wool, while it was dressed up with silk lapels and a velvet collar for appointments in town. In its version of history, the Camplin brand created the "petty officer" to dress the Indian native officers of the British Navy in 1850. Later the pea coat became the "petty coat", now known as the "peacoat".

Tips for wearing your pea coat well

The pea coat is recognised by its thickness, its double-breasted front, its weight and its wide lapels. It adds volume and weight and is therefore not recommended for people who are already carrying a little extra. This coat is also unsuitable for anyone with slim legs contrasting with a broad chest. The wide lapels of the pea coat are also to be avoided by men with a face that is both narrow and long. To find the right style with the pea coat, remember that it is generally worn over a suit, with a length that goes just beyond that of the jacket. For extra style, you can wear a scarf to make the transition between the softness of the shirt and the rough texture of the pea coat. This outer garment is also worn with a roll neck jumper and faded jeans in a semi-slim cut for a small touch of fashion.
