Choose by season
Today, fashion designers offer jeans for any season - both for summer and for winter. Summer Options, designed for cool weather or evening walks, are usually sewn from plain or lightweight denim. Modern models can be combined with colored cotton inserts or decorated with perforations.
Winter denim jackets insulated, as a rule, with natural or artificial sheep fur, modern synthetic winterizer or other material. Such options have a classic straight cut, a warm collar, a length just below the middle of the thigh.
If you need an original winter denim jacket, you can choose a model with a fur collar. For him, fox, astrakhan fur, ponies are usually used. There are also extravagant things with pony or mink fur collars. The color of the jacket can be anything from classic indigo to bright emerald green or conservative chocolate shade.
Insulated demi-season or autumn jeans presented in fashion collections with standard cut options, but with such details as a soft checkered cotton lining, velvet collar, leather inserts. The jacket will look great in a layered set, along with a knitted sweater and a cotton shirt.
Trendy colors
The main favorite is still the correct blue denim and its derivative shades: blue, light blue, indigo, bleached blue, etc. But things from jet black denim, white or any other light shade look fresh and interesting.
In addition, designers offer to expand the palette of men's wardrobe, adding beige, brown and green tones to it - such clothes are now at the peak of popularity. For example, a beige men's denim jacket will make the look unusual, especially if you combine it with monochrome items - light brown pants, a cream t-shirt and light-colored soft suede sports shoes.
Black denim jacket will find its place in any age closet - it will look equally stylish on a teenager, and on a young guy, and on an adult man.
The same goes for the classic blue denim. But it is worth remembering the important rule of combining denim items in one look: a blue jacket cannot be worn with jeans of the same color, but a black denim jacket and black jeans look quite acceptable in one duet, but the shade of the two things should be the same.
Many models of jeans are decorated with scuffs and torn elements. - this is usually done by hand using stones, graters and planks. Techniques will allow ordinary things to look not boring and original.In addition, artificially aged items are in fashion today, they can be found in the collections of denim brands such as Levis, Edwin, Han Kjobenhavn, etc.

How to choose
A denim jacket is almost as old as jeans - the first model was sewn at the beginning of the 20th century. At that time, these clothes were part of the equipment of workers.
Today, choosing a denim jacket is not difficult, but in order to choose the right model, you need to know a few rules:
- The jacket should not be too loose and oversized, otherwise, instead of a stylish look, you will get a reference to the 80s;
- Most models of jeans have a standard length - approximately to the hip, this option will suit almost any figure;
- A narrow denim jacket should not be bought for men with a problematic top, and a model that is too wide will not suit a person with a thin torso;
- Short men should opt for a skinny-cut denim jacket that reaches to the beginning of the thigh, while tall men can opt for a slightly longer cut.
What to wear
Classic denim without lining - perfect for any weather. In summer, it can be combined with a simple T-shirt, in winter - with a sweater or a warm flannel shirt. Some men wear denim with oxford shirts, this option is also possible if you choose a dark solid color jacket without fading, wool trousers and suitable shoes, for example, not classic brogues or boots. Sweatshirts and long sleeves are also a great option for this jacket.
The combination of denim and jeans has been bad manners for a long time - today it is not considered a fashionable failure, the main thing is to wear a jacket and jeans of different colors. But fashion designers still offer not to take risks and wear jeans with chinos, cargo or trousers made of wool, velveteen. In summer, you can wear thick cotton shorts or even sweatpants.
If we talk about shoes, then it is better to choose fashionable sneakers for a simple light blue jacket, and dark denim can be worn with leather shoes, but not with business shoes.
Fur-lined denim will look good with wool trousers, a knitted pullover and leather sneakers, for example. Such a set will come in handy for a warm autumn.There are also winter denim jackets - they can be worn on their own, or used in a multi-layered set with a parka and a shirt.
What is the price
A variety of brands, materials and models will allow you to choose a stylish denim jacket for every taste and budget. This thing can be found in the collections of brands of different price categories. For example, s.Oliver offers light denim models costing from 3,500 rubles, Wrangler and Lee can find options for 4-6 thousand, and the cost of luxury models starts from 10 thousand rubles. In any case, you can choose a comfortable model that will best fit into the everyday men's wardrobe.
When choosing a particular model, you should pay attention to the quality of denim and tailoring, and in most cases this is what affects the cost of the item. Good fabric does not stretch or see through, so quality denim is strong and durable. In addition, the jacket should be with straight stitching and functional details - buttons, straps and pockets. Such a model will last more than one season and will please the owner for a long time.
A good denim jacket doesn't have to be expensive. A stylish and high-quality option can be found in brands such as Asos, Topshop, Levis, Lee, Tommy Hilfiger. If price is not important to you, then we advise you to take a closer look at such authentic clothing brands as Edwin, Nudie Jeans, Han Kjobenhaven. Their collections include both classic men's denim jackets and unusual models, for example, without a collar or with contrasting sleeves and a variety of patches.
Whatever your denim jacket is, the main thing is to correctly fit it into your existing wardrobe.
