Men's Overshirts

Overshirts have become an essential part of men's wardrobes. This hybrid garment, somewhere between the classic shirt and the lightweight jacket, is ideal for chill but stylish men. Here's a complete guide to men's overshirts: how to choose, wear and care for them. Let's go!

The overshirt is a versatile garment that can be worn as a shirt or jacket, depending on the season and requirements. With its generally loose fit, it is designed to be layered with other garments, making it a perfect choice for mid-season. Made from fabrics such as flannel, cotton or even wool, overshirts strike the perfect balance between warmth and lightness.

The choice of overshirt depends on several criteria:

Fabric: The best overshirts are often made from cotton or flannel: softness and comfort guaranteed. For extra warmth in winter, wool is an excellent choice.
The cut: Choose a slightly loose fit, so you can layer a tee-shirt or sweater underneath. However, make sure it stays snug so as not to appear too voluminous.
Colors and patterns : Checked overshirts are a timeless classic, but plain or subdued color options can be easily integrated into your wardrobe. Choose shades that suit your style and the items you already own.
Details: An overshirt with sturdy buttons, practical pockets and a well-structured collar will add character to your outfit.
Size: Consult our size guides to find the perfect overshirt for you.

Overshirts offer great styling freedom. Here are a few ideas for incorporating it into your outfit:

With a T-shirt: Pair an overshirt with a plain tee for a chill look. This combo is perfect for mid-season.
With shirt: Wear your open overshirt over a button-down shirt for a more elaborate effect. This style works well for semi-formal occasions.
With a thin sweater: For cooler days, layer the overshirt over a light sweater.
With chino pants or jeans: Overshirts work well with timeless bottoms like chino or jeans. You can also vary the shades to create a harmonious ensemble.

Can I wear another garment over my overshirt?

Yes, yes, yes! Overshirts can be used as a mid-layer in multi-layered outfits. Here are a few suggestions:

With a jacket: For colder days, add a leather jacket or blouson over your overshirt.
With a long coat: A flannel or wool overshirt can be worn under a classic coat for a chic winter look.
With a vest: If you're looking for an original style, add a sleeveless cardigan for a trendy touch.

The choice of fabric is crucial to the comfort and durability of your overshirt:

Cotton: Renowned for its softness and breathability, cotton is ideal for everyday use.
Flannel: Soft and warm, it's perfect for the cooler seasons and brings a trendy bucheron style.
Wool: This fabric is perfect for winter: it's the best thermal insulation.
