Designer coats for men
Whether it's a down coat for winter, a high-quality wool coat for autumn or a trench coat for spring – at BRAUN Hamburg you will find the right designer coat for men for every occasion and every season, which can be styled with numerous outfits.
Which coats are timeless?
Designer down coats for men, trench coats, parkas and various types of woollen coats are all considered timeless and durable in men's fashion and can be worn from season to season. To give you a better understanding of the styles available in our online shop, we have described the characteristics of each garment in detail:
Down coats for men
Designer down coats for men are the perfect base layer, especially in freezing temperatures. The surface can be quilted, soft or velvety. Due to its heat-retaining properties, down offers excellent protection against the cold and is considered to be thermally insulating. When choosing the right designer winter coat for men, you can choose between a light and a heavy down filling. In addition, the piece can consist of two different elements, a so-called detachable double front, an inner padded down jacket and an outer woollen coat. This means that the garment is not only suitable for winter, but also for autumn.
Brands such as Moorer for men, Stone Island for men and Brunello Cucinelli for men offer both short and long, warm designer winter coats for men.
Wool coats for men
In the transitional seasons, from autumn to winter and from winter to spring, the wool coat is a popular designer coat for men. It is characterised by broad shoulders, a straight cut and a single or double-breasted button-up front. The garment can be lined or unlined. Coats from Windsor for men, Woolrich for men and Massimo Alba for men are perfect for any style.
Also very popular, especially as a business coat for men, is the caban coat with wide lapels, double-breasted and made from high quality wool. Belvest for men, Mackintosh for men and Tagliatore for men all have this type of garment in their repertoire.
An evolution of the piece is the duffle coat, which with its toggle fastenings and hood belongs to the category of sporty, elegant men's coats and plays a role in both leisure and casual business styles.
Trench coats for men
One of the classic coats for men is the trench coat, which is worn by men in many outfits in spring and autumn. In classic beige or other shades such as navy, it is a timeless and stylish garment that is an essential part of any man's wardrobe. With single or double breasted buttons, a lapel collar, sometimes a belt and epaulettes, and a medium to long cut, the coat's design makes it one of the favourites in men's fashion. The mostly water-repellent material also makes it functional. Various types of pockets, as well as a slit and pleat at the back, also make it a useful designer coat for men. Various trench coats are available from brands such as Brioni for men and Caruso for men which are excellent for any business look.
Rain coats for men
You can wear a rain coat in all weathers because it is a functional garment that is water-repellent, windproof and breathable. These pieces often have a removable lining so they can be used on both warm and cold days. Brands such as Herno Laminar for men, Sealup for men and UBR for men offer functional, water-repellent leisure coats for men.
What should men look for when buying a designer coat?
1. The cut
Designer coats for men come in a slim fit and a regular fit. Depending on which cut you prefer, you should choose your model accordingly. Note that a slim fit silhouette is more figure-hugging, while a regular fit is wider at the shoulders, waist and chest.
2. The fastening
A men's designer coat may have a button placket and/or a zip. Wool coats often have single or double button plackets, which may be partially concealed by the fabric. Caban coats always have a double-breasted placket.
3. The pockets
The different types of pockets on designer coats for men not only offer plenty of storage space, but are also ideal for keeping hands warm in freezing temperatures. These include chest, billet or hip pockets, some with flaps, slanted front or welt pockets and inside pockets.
4. The collar
Depending on the design of the men's designer coats, the collar can be fitted with a zip or buttons. In our BRAUN Hamburg online shop you can choose between lapel collars, turn-down collars and stand-up collars.
5. The colours
The classic colours designer coats for men are black, navy and various shades of brown and grey. Natural colours such as camel, olive and taupe are also available.
6. The materials
Men's coats are made from microfibres in a variety of fabrics and materials including wool, virgin wool, cashmere, cotton, silk, camel hair and blends. The various designers use the highest quality fabrics to create a durable garment that guarantees a high level of comfort: whether simple, elegant or sporty.
7. The lining
There are both long coats for men and short models, which can be half lined, fully lined or unlined. The lining of warm winter coats for men is made of down or synthetic fibres.
8. Further details
Another feature of a designer coat for men can be a hood, which is often removable. A centre back slit and cuffs are other details that often characterise the garment. It may also have a buttoned storm flap, a press stud or a snow flap. The coat may also be water-repellent.
How should a coat for men fit?
For the ideal fit, it is important that the coat is neither too tight around the shoulders nor too loose, making it look bulky. The sleeves should not be too short or too long. Think about what else you will be wearing with the coat. If you are wearing a suit, the fabric should be at least mid-thigh.
What is the best length for men's coats?
Whether you choose a short or long men's coat is entirely up to you. The important thing is that it suits your body type and height. Here's a tip: if you're shorter, don't go for something too long or too loose.
