Summer doesn’t leave a lot of options for men in the way of wardrobe. That’s why when the air gets crisp and the leaves start changing colors, I get excited. That means it’s coat season and a man can truly make a statement with his outerwear from dressy to casual. We’re going to take a look at some outerwear choices for this fall/winter to match any budget. The beautiful thing about coats is they can make an everyday outfit pop and can be had for anywhere from a hundred bucks to $5000 or more depending how deep you want to dig into your wallet. Take a look at some of these selections.
This Fraser Shearling Fur Biker Jacket in black by Belstaff is truly a beautiful piece. Biker jackets are always in style and this one with its dyed shearling lining really stands out. The quilted shoulders are a nice touch as well as the double buckle side straps. With a price tag of ,195.00, it’s not cheap but it’s worth the splurge. This can be purchased at www.NeimanMarcus.com.
The pea coat is always a good choice as it never goes out of style, it’s a classic. The Sean John Faux-Leather-Sleeve Military Pea Coat puts a modern spin on the pea coat with the faux leather sleeves which give it a very sleek and cool look. Besides being a gorgeous jacket, it’s a steal $179.00 and an even better deal at the sale price of $144.99. This jacket can be purchased at www.Macys.com.
Every winter coat collection needs one simple staple coat, that cool jacket that turns a nice pair of jeans, a white V-neck tee, and a good pair of boots into an ultra-stylish outfit. That’s where the Theory Belvin VP Voedar Coat comes in. Simple, stylish, and well-made you can’t go wrong. It’s fully lined and hand pockets so it’s sure to keep you warm as well. At $745.00 it’s more than reasonable as this coat is likely to last more than just a couple of winters. It can be found at www.bloomingdales.com.
I’m a huge fan of all jackets quilted, quilted leather is even better. It’s such a cool look and works whether you’re grabbing a cup of coffee or heading out for a night on the town. This black leather quilted jacket by Andrew Marc is a perfect example of what quilted leather should look like. The $795 price tag is well worth it if you ask me. This is a fantastic jacket and Andrew Marc is known for its quality products. It can be found at www.NeimanMarcus.com.
A topcoat is a must have for the fall and winter months. It’s for those days when you’re wearing a tie and still need to keep warm.

It’s single breasted and crafted in wool and cashmere. It features set-in sleeves and a covered placket. This coat offers a very crisp and tailored look. The price is steep at $1695.00 but will last a good long time if cared for. It can be found at www.us.burberry.com.
