Where a jacket falls short, the car coat finishes the job with coverage down to the mid-thigh without the weight of a full length coat. Dick’s suit-weight worsted wool coat is perfect for California winters, and more perfect when paired with a lightweight merino wool sweater, button-down shirt, dark jeans and easy loafers.
- These loafers are as comfortable as sneakers but a lot classier.
- Lightweight merino wool gives heavy weight warmth without bulk.
- A seat cover in a menswear plaid protects his leather saddle from rain.
