The upgraded outdoorsman look isn’t going anywhere. Cleaning up the lines and muting the colors of normally ugly and bulky outdoor gear mixes form and function.

Dark colors like navy and black look more city appropriate, and a white rumpled oxford will really jump underneath them.
Remember, this is outerwear. So if you’re going to be inside for an extended period of time, it should come off.
