Camel coat

Calling all camel topcoats

Like aviator shades and whiskey on the rocks, a camel coat will never go out of style. The neutral shade looks good with any outfit and skin tone, so buying your own is a no-brainer - this is one of our favorites. Take advantage of the coat’s versatility from some of these fashionable guys.

Dress It Up

Like fashion blogger Marcel Floruss did here, swapping a suit jacket for a camel coat lets you stay comfortable without looking underdressed. Spend a little more and opt for cashmere or camel hair (yes, from the actual animal) over wool if you know you’ll be wearing yours to the office.

We like this cashmere-camel mix from Brooks Brothers as an attainable investment piece ($498, ). Just make sure to get it tailored to give you that Superman “V” chest.

Meet In the Middle

Unexpected combinations—like this Chicago sweatshirt with the camel coat—breathe new life into the classic. They also show that you know how to layer like pro.

Pair yours with fitted chinos and sneakers (like Ralph Lauren’s EJ Sampson did here) for an off-duty look that you wouldn’t be afraid to meet your boss in.

Go Full Casual

Unlike black or navy, a camel double-breasted coat is casual enough to look totally at home on top of athleisure. This Todd Snyder look works well because the fabric of the sweats and sweatshirt flow into the wool coat. Polyester basketball shorts? Not so much.

Pop the collar for added umph and warmth, then live comfortably forever knowing you’ll never fall out of trend.
