Jackets are an essential part of men’s wardrobe. And there needs to be a great variety of them to suit different occasions. When it comes to party season jackets, the trick is to find one that is noticeable for its color or pattern, complements your body type but is not too over the top. You could pair them with casual denim jeans or the classic khakis pants; it all depends on the look you want to achieve and the place you are to visit (friend’s house, club, etc.). Here are some of the most stylish men’s jackets.
1. Blazer
A blazer is a very versatile men’s garment. You can wear it to all sorts of places including weddings, bars and other get-togethers.

2. Biker Jackets
These are close-fitted jackets made of leather with zippers. Owing to leather’s protective qualities, they are the preferred choice of motorcyclists.

They look great with black boots and black jeans and are the perfect choice for those who want an edgier look.
3. Harrington Jacket
