Formal & Smart-Casual Styling Advice

The rich navy herringbone cloth provides an elegant foundation for colder days. Wear it over a tailored suit or crisp business shirt for formal commuting, letting the internal quilted collar add protection without requiring a separate scarf. For a smart weekend look, layer it over a fine merino knit jumper paired with beige chinos and dark brown leather brogues.
