Every man should have a navy jacket in their wardrobe; they coordinate with most colours, instantly add a touch of class and can be worn with smart and casual trousers and Bermudas too.

To make sure yours doesn’t look like part of a uniform, choose one with some detail. This navy hopsack weave jacket has a subtle texture that elevates it from a typical blazer and gives it feel appeal. The fabric is woven by Reda from their Active range and has natural stretch for comfort. This is a jacket you can wear to work or play. Unlined for added comfort with patch pockets and 3 button fastening which, unlike with a double-breasted jacket, can be left undone too.

There are various ways to wear a navy jacket to warrant investing in one. Use it as a canvas to create any of this handful of classic outfit suggestions:

  1. With a white shirt, waistcoat and jeans with a turn up and ankle boots
  2. With a pale blue shirt, tie (if you must) and grey trousers and loafers
  3. With a navy roll neck and navy trousers and navy suede shoes / ankle boots
  4. With a white t-shirt and coloured knee length Bermudas / city short and deck shoes
  5. Pair a same colour roll neck and wool or 5-pocket trouser and the same colour suede shoes

It’s breathable thanks to the open hopsack weave which is woven from sustainable, ethical, traceable ZQ Merino wool, which also means its washable, so no hassle to look after. Indeed, the wool itself is naturally thermoregulating and resists odours.

Add a pocket square for a pop of pattern / colour and choose one that coordinates with the rest of the outfit; if wearing all navy, choose a colour you might not wear a large amount of and use the navy as the backdrop to carry it off.
