Re-Inventing The Golf Jacket

in mens style

I was inspired today!  While flipping through the pages of a widely read men’s magazine I noticed a re-emerged trend for men that I think is “spot on” without looking overly trendy and utterly ridiculous!  Perhaps some of you out there already own this classic piece in your closets, but if you don’t, the golf jacket can be yours with minimal wallet damage  – Just head to your local thrift store for someone’s discarded goodness or log onto Americanapparel.com for the most reasonably priced piece.  So what is a “golf jacket”?  It’s a tad preppy and best worn in classic colors like khaki, red, grass green, white, or navy.  The style is characterized by a stretchy banded bottom, zip-up front, and stand up collar… How to do it up to make it ultra-current?  I LOVE it left open, paired with a classic blue button-down, ultra-conservative skinny knit striped tie, dark wash denim, and a nice brown belt!
