Jugle jacket was designed to be worn in tropical climates during the Vietnam War, so it’s super lightweight and very functional. It’s perfect for casual wear. You might think, “Why would I wear a jacket in the summer? I would melt in that!” Yes, it’s technically a jacket, and yes, it has long sleeves, but classic jungle jacket is made from very lightweight cotton, so it is actually suitable for summer. It’s a perfect casual piece to wear over an Oxford shirt, a T-shirt, or even a tank top. Even though it’s a casual piece, it can still be dressed up. It pairs well with smarter shirts and trousers, although most people prefer to wear it more casually - with jeans, chinos, or shorts. And this jacket is perfect for days when you don’t want to carry anything in your hands, because it has four big front pockets. You can store most of your daily essentials - your phone, wallet, keys, even a notebook, pens, an AirPods case, etc.

Below are some of the best ways to style the jungle jacket, in case you need a bit of inspiration.
