Sport Coat – Finished a Little Softer Than the Jacket From a Suit

A single breasted jacket with notch lapels, two front buttons and three pockets. The finishing is lighter than a suit jacket's, which is what lets it stand on its own next to chinos or denim. Three colors, sized S through 2XL.

Why choose a sport coat?

A suit jacket without its trousers reads as half an outfit, because it was cut as part of a pair. A sport coat is drafted from the start as a single garment and finished accordingly. That difference sits in the construction rather than in the look from across a room.

Less formal make-up — the finishing is lighter than a suit jacket's and reads as a separate piece.
Three usable pockets — a breast pocket plus two flapped pockets at the hip.
Top button only — the classic rule: fasten the upper button, leave the lower one open.
Notch lapels — a neutral lapel shape that works with or without a tie.
Dry clean finish — steam and dry cleaning keep the front panels smooth.

The jacket that stops being formalwear the moment you put jeans under it.

Keep it on a broad hanger so the shoulder line holds its shape between wearings. Dry cleaning is the better route here, since machine washing flattens the structure in the chest. A quick steam before wearing settles most creases from the wardrobe.
