Autumn's key garment: The double-breasted wool coat
For centuries, the wool coat has been worn by people in different contexts and for different purposes. In the early 1900s it was a formal garment worn by style icons such as the Duke of Windsor, and is now considered a timeless jacket in every style-conscious man's wardrobe.

Since the early 1900s, the wool coat has been a highly regarded fashion item, adding a stylish and masculine touch to any outfit. Choosing the right model can be challenging, as there are many versions of the wool coat, including pea coats, single-breasted and double-breasted options, as well as long and short lengths.
If you don't already own a wool coat, we recommend starting with a well-fitted, solid-coloured piece that you feel comfortable wearing and that complements most of your wardrobe. Pay attention to both the length and width to ensure it suits your silhouette.
Double-breasted wool coat
This autumn, we’re embracing the double-breasted oversized wool coat. It offers a stylish, masculine, and confident look. The coat takes centre stage in fall outfits and can be styled with simple pieces for a clean look or with layers and colour contrasts for added depth. For those willing to push the boundaries, a more oversized option, whether single or double-breasted, is a great choice this season.
Here, we’ve paired stonewashed jeans in a black vintage wash for a relaxed vibe, complemented by handcrafted dress shoes, like black penny loafers. Layering is key to adding contrast to the large dark coat. We’ve used a ribbed sand-coloured cardigan and a classic white t-shirt from Sunspel. Jewellery and accessories are always a great final touch to give your styling a personal flair.
