Gilets for men

The gilet is back in vogue, making a stylish statement. That's why Suitable offers a variety of models from the finest brands. With its warm lining, it keeps your body cosy while adding a touch of sportiness to your look. Ensuring your torso remains shielded from the chill allows you to comfortably engage in outdoor activities. Perfect for blustery spring days and sunny autumn afternoons! Gilets are also a smart choice if you crave unrestricted movement.

What's the deal with gilets?

A gilet is your go-to when a jacket feels too toasty, yet a jumper falls short. The sleeveless design keeps your core snug while allowing your arms full freedom. A boon for outdoor pursuits like hiking, DIY, or cycling. Not to forget, gilets are lightweight, easy to throw on and take off, effortlessly topping a sweater, hoodie, or men's cardigan. Crafted from modern fabrics, gilets aren't just practical but also stylish.

Which season suits a gilet?

A men's gilet is a year-round piece. Especially in the Netherlands, where unpredictable weather is the norm. Opting for a gilet provides more freedom of movement compared to a winter coat. Also, most gilets are padded, offering more warmth than a summer jacket. Hence, most men tend to don a gilet during spring and autumn.

Diverse range of gilets from top brands

Every brand stocked by Suitable meets the highest quality standards. Ensuring you get value for your money regardless of your choice. Brands like New Zealand Auckland are renowned for stylish gilets embodying the adventurous Kiwi spirit. Barbour, drawing inspiration from British hunting and equestrian pursuits, crafts gilets with timeless appeal.

What colours pair with men's gilets?

The average man often opts for a quilted gilet in a dark, neutral shade like navy, black, olive green, or grey. Occasionally, vibrant accents like red, cobalt blue, or even yellow make an appearance. However, functionality remains key. In other words, how warm and comfortable will you stay, and how easily can it complement a layered look?

What to wear under a gilet?

A gilet is highly versatile, pairing well with almost any garment. Your choice depends largely on the occasion and your style. For casual ensembles, pair it with a t-shirt or polo shirt. Formal outings call for a shirt as the top pick, followed by a classic roll neck. Engaging in outdoor activities like cycling or hiking? Layer a gilet over a comfy hoodie or jumper.
