In the previous article I went through the history of the U.S. Army Field Jacket. Now I want to share outfit ideas to show just how versatile this classic piece really is. It’s perfect for layering so it works pretty much all year round, from late summer to late spring. If you want to wear it in winter you’ll probably need to add a warm liner, but during the spring and fall months it pairs perfectly with a sweater, sport coat or denim jacket. One of the main reasons it became so popular is its versatility - it works with almost anything. My favourite combinations are with jeans, no matter the color or wash. It also looks great with chinos or even dressier trousers and if you style it right it can even work with a suit! Below I am sharing a few of my favorite options.
