How to choose a men's spring jacket?
Spring has officially arrived. And that means we'll have to get used to the idea that we won't have any idea what kind of weather awaits us the next moment. We might leave home on a sunny morning, meet lunch with rain, and an evening with a gusty wind. March, April and May are the most difficult period when you have to adapt to the weather literally every day. And yet we adore spring for the opportunity to throw off warm outerwear and finally refresh our look with light spring jackets.
There are many men's spring jackets: bomber, parka, windbreaker, quilted and denim, warm and not so. And each has its own task: one protects well from the cold, another from precipitation, the third combines the properties of the first and second. And there are also transformable jackets - clothes for all occasions. And since the spring jacket season 2021 is open, we decided to tell you about this year's trends, what they are made of and what they can be combined with.

Choice of material
It determines the performance characteristics and application possibilities of the spring jacket.
Choosing a spring jacket is always a matter of priorities and personal preferences. The aesthetically pleasing appearance of the product is an important factor, but not always the determining one. For many consumers, the material from which a thing is made comes first. It is the material that determines the ability of clothing to perform its basic functions for a long time, for example, to protect from cold and rain, while maintaining color, shape and attractive appearance.
Many people love genuine leather. A smooth leather men's spring jacket is especially popular, and deservedly so. It is a practical, beautiful and practically everlasting product. The material has open micropores, so the leather jacket breathes well, which is incredibly comfortable to wear. "Leather" is expensive, but it is justified.
It should be remembered that the modern textile industry also offers other materials with unique characteristics that make life as easy as possible for the consumer.
- Natural - suede, denim, wool.
- Artificial - fleece, nylon, polyester.
- Combined - twill, softshell.
The trend of recent years is men's spring jackets made of combined materials. Almost all leading world brands produce such clothes. And these models, as a rule, firmly occupy the top positions.
TYPES OF SPRING JACKETS
The Best Spring Jackets for Men to Buy in 2021
You can buy one of them or buy several at once for the whole season, so that the unpredictable spring weather does not take you by surprise and you always have the opportunity to diversify your everyday looks. In addition, a spring jacket can be worn in the fall and in the off-season, so that the 2-3 models you bought will not "lie around in the closet".
PARKA
Men's spring parka is a must-have for true fashionistas! The original model will give you an extraordinary look. It is difficult to remain unnoticed in it. And this is one of the most stylish and best solutions for protection from cold, wind and precipitation during a long stay in the fresh air. What makes it so is the dense, wear-resistant polyester top with water-repellent impregnation, removable bio-down lining, voluminous hood, high stand-up collar, huge patch pockets. The model is often complemented by fur on the hood and along the fastening line. If desired, it can be removed - this makes it easier to care for the item and makes it universal in terms of seasonality. The hood and hem are adjusted with elastic drawstrings on the fasteners.
BOMBER
Men's pilot jacket (bomber) is an excellent choice for men who want to look stylish in the spring, while using comfortable and versatile outerwear. The bomber adds lightness and ease to the image. The shortened straight silhouette model, length to the hip line, has all the characteristic features of the classic American MA-1 pilot jacket:
- semi-circular knitted neckline,
- sleeves and bottom with knitted cuffs,
- convenient internal and external pockets with zippers,
- central fastener with windproof flap.
The top is made of soft but durable polyester with a synthetic filler lining. The jacket provides excellent protection from wind, cold and light rain.
ANORAK
This is a windbreaker jacket with a hood, one large pocket in the center and without a traditional zipper along the entire length of the product. It is here, but is located only at the top, from the collar to the middle of the chest. For this reason, the windbreaker is put on over the head, like a sweatshirt or sweater. But this does not bother casual style and active recreation lovers at all. The model has many more advantages: a spectacular look, good wind and moisture protection, absolute freedom of movement. The anorak goes well with sports and casual style clothes.
SUEDE JACKET
Stylish leather outerwear has always been in demand in men's wardrobes. One of these items is a suede jacket. For spring, it should definitely be light, like this one - caramel color. Suede is a specially treated leather: very soft, breathable, waterproof and goes well with many other materials. In the spring season of 2021, designers offer men's suede jackets in the form of a biker jacket, blazer, "pilot" and other variations.
DENIM
It is "a hundred years old", but designers never cease to amaze with new models. Denim outerwear is always appropriate, very practical and can create an impeccably stylish ensemble from the most seemingly irreconcilable elements of the wardrobe. It is suitable for any event, with the exception, perhaps, of official events. Another important advantage of a denim jacket is its absolute versatility: denim has no restrictions on height, age, body type or social status. Be sure to include this item in your shopping list.
COACHING
Even when it's windy and wet outside, the functional coaching jacket will make your day comfortable. Lightweight, comfortable and durable, it features an adjustable drawstring hem, peak collar, snap-button storm flap, detachable hood and elastic cuffs, designed for people on the move. The coach's jacket goes well with jeans, straight-cut and loose-fitting trousers.
Biker
A biker leather jacket (or motorcycle jacket) is a cult item! Once you buy one, you will wear it forever, or at least until you get tired of it. It is a classic that is timeless. It is like an expensive wine - it only gets better with age. The model features: durable thick leather, a short silhouette that covers the lower back, a voluminous shoulder line and a narrowed waist. Modern models are constantly being improved: they change the color, emblems, add shoulder straps, quilted shoulders, increase the volume. But with all the changes, the metal fittings always remain - these are zippers on the pockets, zippers on the sleeves, a central zipper diagonally from the left hip to the right shoulder, and there are always metal rivets, buttons, buckles.
WINDSTOPPER JACKET
The Windstopper jacket is an ideal option for high outdoor activity and everyday use in spring and autumn. Lightweight, comfortable, practical. Made of stretch membrane fabric with a pleasant texture similar to cotton. The fabric stretches with every movement, breathes perfectly, and protects well from wind and water. The Windstopper jacket almost always comes with a hood. It is very popular among athletes, outdoor enthusiasts, and street style clothing.
TRANSFORMER
A spring men's transformer jacket is a universal option for practical men, an ideal companion for drivers and a good solution for sports, outdoor activities and tourism enthusiasts. By purchasing one, you get two (or three) items for the price of one: the clothes can be worn as a jacket or a vest. The 2-in-1 models have detachable sleeves and a hood, and the 3-in-1 jackets also have a lining. The top of the products is made of wind- and water-resistant nylon. The quilted lining on the artificial filler provides good thermal insulation. There are drawstrings on the hood and along the bottom of the jacket, allowing you to adjust the volume.
WHAT TO PAIR WITH A MEN'S SPRING JACKET?
Men's spring jackets can be worn with almost everything. In warm weather, they can be worn over light T-shirts and T-shirts, and in cold weather - over wool shirts, sweaters or turtlenecks. Such jackets go well with straight trousers, jeans, chinos and sports-style pants. And it all looks straightforward and modern. Here are some examples.
