The Black Jacket is commonly sewn single breasted with two buttons in the front and two or three buttons on each of the sleeve end. The versatility of the Black Jacket for Men is outlined in different ways it can be utilized in various environments as pictured below. Lets have a look at five ways in which the Black Jacket is used for Men’s dressing.

1. Workplace Dressing

Black Jacket is suitable for workplace dressing. Whatever profession or work you are engaged in, getting adequately dressed is a must. If you work indoor where health and safety allows for normal, standard dressing, then you can go for this pink/red-striped, long sleeve shirt with cream chinos straight trousers and black flat-soled pair of shoes from Marks & Spencer. It is bright and full of life. Nothing more will create an impression about your seriousness and readiness for business.

2. Travel

Imagine parking your  car after a journey, ease the car to the carpark behind you, then; step into the walkway of the main building in style and comfort. Hang this Black Jacket in the car and wear it when you’re parked and ready to walk inside. This Black Jacket matches the pink striped shirt with a cream or brown chinos trouser, a brown leather belt and brown deck  shoe..…with your key safe in the pocket; it’s a happy journey and a good day ahead!

3. Leisure

Are you having a stroll to the park to watch the nature quietly? going from the office to the leisure park or a quick personal time at the playground? meeting friends or clients for a ‘quick drink and chat’ at the bar? the light blue/brown  stripped shirt  or pink stripped shirt with the brown chinos trousers with brown belt and brown deck shoes from Marks and Spencer and the Black Jacket suits them all. It’s still a lovely, cool evening.

4. Cocktail Parties, Presentations, Interview sessions

A pink, red, white, blue or other matching coloured shirt and trouser and flat-soled shoe to match will give you that relaxed,  but equally elegant and formal look. I like the Brown Brogues from Loakes Shoes when a much formal outlook is needed, as shown in the second picture.  Keep an eye on the colour of your belt and shoes; ensuring they match and for that chic look, a brooch or jacket handkerchief is necessary if you are raising the bar for a stately engagement.

5. Family Picture Ops/Outing

Create an elegant outlook by trying different matches of shirts and colours with the ever magical Black Jacket and and shoes to match. You won’t believe how well things matches up for a great day out with your family!
