Shirt Jackets Are a Gift From the Layering Gods & These Are the Best
Shirt jackets tiptoe the very fine line between shirting and outerwear with finesse. And when it comes to the spring and summer outerwear, they're a well-dressed man's secret weapon thanks to their versatility and pairing prowess.
In the warmer months, shirt jackets come into their own and we want to prove it with iterations from Bethany Williams, By WALID, C.P. Company, and more. Whether you’re looking for traditional workwear or something altogether more modern, there’s a shirt jacket out there with your name on it, so stop wasting time over the outerwear-shirt decision and opt for a piece that does it all.
