While there are a lot of styles in the men's overcoats most men choose to go with the usual choices like solid black overcoats and navy overcoats. While this is a wise choice considering the versatility of these overcoats but it is better of you step out of the comfort zone every now and then. In this article we discuss the mens coats and some of the best ways in which you can style it.
The solid overcoats are a great style which you can style with both formal and casual outfits. But they are usual styles and can be found in almost every man's wardrobe. But when you need a garment that lets you stand out from the crowd and also showcase your personality then you should go with something different. Mens coats are a great choice for this since the patterned coat will give you a look that makes you special. For people who are not aware of the houndstooth coats then houndstooth is more like a type of checked pattern.
The mens coats usually consists of intersecting horizontal and vertical lines which creates small square like patterns on the garment. For a more intrinsic design yih cab go with the overcheck pattern on the mens coats which consists of large check patterns which are present on the garment and it complements the smaller squares. The mens coats consists of symmetrical squares that come in broken check pattern and this is formed by the weave of the garment.
As for the name of the pattern the main distinguishing characteristic of mens coats when compared with the checked coats is that the former has jagged edges that are caused by the tangent twill lines which flare out from the sides. The jagged edges on the squares make it seem like the back teeth of the dogs and hence the name. Mens coats are one of the most popular choices when it comes to patterned coats. The houndstooth pattern is also used in formal garments like suits and blazers.
Houndstooth pattern is known to be one of the most popular patterns in menswear history for a long time. The houndstooth pattern first came into use in the 1800s and the place of its origin was Scotland. It was famously known as the Shepherd's check or Dogtooth at that time and was used mostly as an outerwear for the sheepherders. Today the houndstooth pattern has become more universal and even has surpassed the clothing industry. In the start of the 1900s the English came to vacation in the Scottish Highlands and even bought estates there. At that time Scottish clans were in existence and the patterns were borrowed from the sheepherders and was used in creation of the tartan designs. The Houndstooth pattern was more of a neutral designs for the Scotlanders and were not restricted to a certain clan.
By the mid 1930s the houndstooth patterned clothes were seen to be the indication of wealth. This was because of the fact that the then Prince of Wales, Edward the VII wore the pattern almost everyday. The tailoring houses worked with the Royal tailors to produce the houndstooth suits that the Prince greatly favored. The prince's love for the pattern grew and thus he unconsciously popularised the style by sporting it almost everyday. Soon the manufacturing houses started producing houndstooth designs for the general public. Soon the houndstooth pattern became famous not only in the United Kingdom but also internationally. This increased the demand making the British manufacturers get a financial boost.
By 1959 the famous French high end designer Christian Dior started using the houndstooth pattern in his designs. When the British produced their houndstooth clothing they would usually weave the design on the garments but this was not the case with Dior. Dior and also the other brands like Louis Vuitton and Chanel which later adopted the style simply opted to print the houndstooth pattern on the garments. At this time the houndstooth pattern was greatly restricted to womenswear and same continued to be the case when the pattern got popular in the United States. Also the houndstooth pattern used till then were in basic black and white but when the pattern came into the United States market it was extended to be used in more vibrant colors like lavender, caramel and green. Now the houndstooth pattern has come a long way from its origin and is now being adopted in almost all garments and also in accessories.
Coming back to the mens coats the fabric from which the mens coats are made from is an important factor to note while purchasing for the coats. The mens coats were originally woven only from wool since it was made to protect the sheepherders from the cold. These wool mens houndstooth coats are thick and are the best when you need winter overcoats that provide good insulation. There are also different weights available in the wool mens coats and you can select one that would suit your requirement. Other than the mens wool coats you can also go with the corduroy mens coats and fleece mens houndstooth coats when you need a winter style.
Nowadays the mens coats are available in different fabrics other than wool. While most of the time the overcoats are used for the winter to ward off the cold some use coats for aesthetic purpose even in spring. For these purposes you can go with the light weight ones that will not feel suffocating like the wool coats. Cotton mens houndstooth coats are the most popular choices for these use of coats.
The natural fabric mens coats which are mentioned above can be a little expensive and if you are not comfortable with the budget then you can choose to go with the cheaper synthetic ones. Cheap mens coats include the polyester mens coats and rayon mens coats which you can try out for aesthetic use. The synthetic coats might not be as durable and comfortable to wear like the natural fabric ones.
The color of the mens coats are also another important factor since it is one of the most easiest detail that gets noticed by the viewers. The traditional mens houndstooth coats consists of small squares and comes in muted colors like brown and black. The small square houndstooth pattern is the one that is most used in the suits, blazers and other formal garments. The black and white mens coats is the most simplistic style you can try out and you can even style it with both formal and casual styles. These small scale patterned mens coats which come in dark colors are the ones that are most recommended when you need to style the coat with formal and semi formal garments. Black mens coats and brown mens coats are the ones that are most recommended for this purpose.
But if you already have overcoats that are designated for the formal use and now are looking for a style that you can style more casually then we would recommend you to go with the mens coats that come with large scale patterns. These modern mens coats mostly come in brighter and lighter shades when compared with the above mentioned formal mens coats. Some of the examples of these casual mens coats are the tan mens coats and beige mens houndstooth coats.
The houndstooth pattern is a classic one and are available in different combinations but it might not be a style that suits everyone. The houndstooth pattern is now being used in almost all garments but when you go with the formal clothing like vest, blazer and such it gives you a busy look. Thus you will have to properly style the outfit when you go with the houndstooth garments. But the safest and easiest to style is the mens coats since it is the outerwear and can be paired with both formal and casual styles. But you still have to be cautious while styling the mens coats and it is better to invest some time into learning about the styling to get a stylish look.
When you want a elegant style that also touches on the vintage look then you can choose to go with the tweed mens coats. Tweed is a hand woven fabric and the threads used for the making are rough and felted. The tweed mens coats are available in muted colors which were originally used to match the landscape of the Scottish estates. The tweed fabric was popularly used as the sporting fabric in the 19th and 20th centuries. Some of the recommendations for the mens tweed coats are the dark brown mens houndstooth coats and green mens coats.
Considering the historical heritage of the houndstooth pattern it is best to be worn in autumns and winters. When you want to go with the traditional style then you can choose to wear these mens houndstooth coats for the outdoor activities like golfing and fishing that you participate in these seasons. While the houndstooth suits and houndstooth blazers might not be suitable for workplaces you can easily style a dark colored mens coat over the formal solid navy suit and save the look. While the houndstooth pattern is considered to be a little informal they result in a semi formal and stylish outerwear which can be a great advantage if you are a person who is already bored with the navy and black overcoats.
The mens coats are trending in recent times in both menswear and womenswear. The need for the overcoat that you wear for winter is important since there is not much of the garment that you wear which is seen underneath the overcoat. The mens houndstooth coats are best to be styled with solid garments so that the pattern does not clash with the patterns on the outfit that you wear underneath the coat. Houndstooth is already a busy pattern and combining patterned garments with this look will make your outfit undesirable and too much. Thus when you are going with the mens coats make sure that you go by pairing it with simple garments. Even if you intend to still pair it with other patterns keep the patterns simple like the stripes and polka dots. For example you can pair a mens black coat with a navy suit, a striped white dress shirt and a polka dot navy tie.
The houndstooth pattern is fierce and is known to signify power and thus you should use it according to the look. The length of the mens coats is an important detail to note. Full length mens coats which reach the knee portion of the wearer are the ones that are most recommended when you need a versatile style. When you are a short person then you might seem immersed in the full length coats and thus you can try the half length or 3/4 length mens coats. Whichever be the style you are going for make sure that it fits your body type properly.
Single breasted mens coats are the ones that can be worn with both formal and casual styles and hence are the ones that are most preferred. The double breasted coats give out a more serious look and are best for formal use. As for the fit it is best to consider the garments you are going to wear underneath. For formal use considering the suit jacket it would be best to go with classic fit mens coats while for casual use you can choose slim fit coats.
