The Unlined Sport Coat
We know that wearing a sport coat is one of this season’s hottest trends. But take it one step further and choose one that is unlined.
Unlined – what does that even mean??
An unlined (or unconstructed) sport coat is a lighter weight jacket without any padding or excess fabric through the shoulders and interior of the jacket. It wears more like a cardigan and is perfect as the weather gets warmer. Less stuffy, more comfortable. Through it over a tee to instantly upgrade your look, roll up the sleeves for a more casual vibe and don’t worry if it gets a little wrinkled. Travelling? Even better – it’s less bulky, folds up small and ultra versatile.
Worried that it’s too flimsy? The Tombolini Flying is a perfect compromise with just a 1/4 lining.
Check out our selection of unlined sport coats from John Varvatos, Tombolini, Hugo Boss or a made in Canada Coppley.
