How Should a Man's Jacket be Worn?

Modern jackets are the legacy of two older styles: the single-breasted jacket worn by the oars clubs and the double-breasted jacket from the British Army. Now there is no difference between jackets. Indeed, we can use a wide range of colors and patterns that are usually highlighted by small details such as copper buttons or pockets.

Be that as it may, before buying your jacket you have to make sure it fits you like a glove.

The most important measure: The chest

Take your ruler and measure the full turn of your chest, just below your arms. This is the most important measure when you buy a jacket, whether it's bought for sale in a store or custom-made, it's important. This helps determine the cut and size of your men fashion jackets.

Shoulders :

Shoulders in place in a jacket need enough space to be free of movement with your arms.

The closure :

In the case of a single-breasted jacket, I advise you to close only one button (even if it's a jacket with three buttons). Both sides of the jacket must meet without the backs too loose from your body. It is important that on the front of the jacket we do not see creases forming from the button to the outside (this is also called "  dreaded X  ").

The length of the sleeves:

The sleeve of the hood cotton jacket must arrive at the base of the meeting between the shoot and the wrist. The lapels of the shirt should be slightly longer than the jacket (6.35 to 19.05mm when standing).

The length of the jacket:

The jacket should always hide your behind. The ideal would be that it stops at the point where your buttocks fall back inside.

The neck :

The collar of the jacket should stick to that of your shirt. Before buying cheap jackets, I suggest you turn on yourself to see your back in the mirror, if the collar of the jackets is too tight then you will see bands and folds just below.

In the end, remember that are the details that will make you gentlemen. It is not a story to wear the latest trend, but rather to find the best design that fits perfectly with your body and your personality.
