The Best Jackets for Men in Spring 2022

Is your wardrobe ready for spring? 

When the weather starts to warm up and we start to wear less layers, we will look for lightweight and at least a little bit water resistant jackets for sure. Plus, buying jackets that are relatively timeless will be a wardrobe investment for you. 

Yet, you have an absolutely enormous amount of options to play with. Denim? Sure! Something more technical, that can pull double duty for a coffee run and an actual run? We've got those, too. We've also got lightweight parkas, chore coats, bombers, leather jackets, fleece zip-ups, car coats, and even more. 

In this post, we’re looking at best spring jackets for men.

The Spring/Summer 2022 Trends for Men

The longest month of the year has finished and here is the February! As living in the UK, we've already started to dream about warmer weather and less layered looks. Less forecasting, more feelings; here are the style moves heading into 2022 from Brand-Store's men's department. 

1. Cardigan coats! 

Coats that are in fact cardigans – otherwise known as heavy-knit cardigans will be your life saver when it's too warm for a coat and too cold for a T-shirt.

2. Sleeveless... everything 

2022 trends takes us to the big love for sleeveless garments. It has been a huge trend for a while now, so forgive us for starting again. The shift first came to our attention when a whole host of designers including Prada and Marni started showing neat sweater vests, while, more recently, Riccardo Tisci dedicated his whole menswear collection to the power of an exposed bicep. 

For the Spring/Summer 2022 season, the trend has gone into overdrive, with sleeveless knitted numbers shown at Erdem and Paul Smith, smart waistcoat styles worn with nothing else walked at Courrèges and Giorgio Armani, and tailored sleeveless blazers and biker jackets proving quite the thing at Burberry, where the trend remained at its strongest.

3. Colourful garments 

Turns out the world’s most important menswear designers are equally as bored of grey marl, navy towelling and black jersey as we are. Proof could be found in the extraordinary array of colour on display on the runways in London, Milan and Paris.

4. Big shorts! 

We are happy to announce that 2022 will be all about the oversized shorts. (“Five-inch short rule” has finished. Finally)

Best Men's Chore Jackets and Shackets to Nail Smart-Casual Layrering!

To us; there is no difference between a light shacket and chore jackets. This garment is the light layer that solves that pesky autumn problem of cold mornings and scorching-hot afternoons in winter. It nails the smart-casual briefing; and it's also on of the first choices when it comes to art of layering. a 

What is a chore jacket? 

 “For functionality purposes, the chore coat usually comes with two large front pockets located at the bottom of the jacket and also two large breast pockets,” explains Rudy Budhdeo, owner of renowned London workwear and denim shop Son Of A Stag. “It normally had a large collar that could be flipped up to protect the wearer from the elements.” 

Traditionally, chore jackets were deliberately oversized to allow for freedom of movement and also for alterations to be made. However, these days they tend to be made more fitted.

We have also added some shackets too in order to make your look warmer!
