When the sun finally returns and washes away those long nights and gloomy days, perhaps the last thing on your mind is outerwear.
“Summer jacket” might sound like an oxymoron, but don’t write them off – jackets are every bit as important in the warmer months as they are during the cooler portion of the year. They combat freak summer showers; they provide yet another sartorial building block for your seasonal wardrobe; and perhaps most importantly of all, they keep the chill at bay on those hazy evening beer-garden sessions (remember those?).
The trick to making it work lies in picking seasonally-appropriate styles and fabrics.
