Men Shackets
A shacket is a piece that combines a jacket and shirt. Our men’s shackets are rendered in cotton blends with styles ranging from full and half zippers to short sleeves to mock-necks. You can layer them over a fine-knit or T-shirt for an elevated look. Cougar’s offers shacket co-ord sets to style gentlemen in an effortless way.
What Makes a Shacket Different
The flexible nature of the shacket makes it different and effortless. A shacket has its silhouette inspired by the shirt and jacket. It has the body length and ease of a shirt with a front closure, pockets and the collar of a jacket. It works as an outer layer on a mild day and as a mid-layer under a coat when the temperature drops, which is what makes shackets for men useful.
Jackets vs Shackets
Jackets are bulkier, more organised pieces of clothing that are designed to keep the wearer completely warm and protected from the weather. Our men’s jackets include bomber, varsity, puffers, trucker, Harrington, and much more. In contrast, men’s shackets are sometimes called shirt jackets. They are lighter hybrid pieces made of thicker fabric that resemble shirts in appearance and button-down style; they are specifically tailored for transitional weather.
The Styles in This Collection
Our men’s winter collection is incomplete without shackets. We are offering four types of shacket styles available in different colors. All these men’s shackets are worth shopping to elevate your fall/winter style game.
The Raglan Shacket carries more details compared to the others. It has a collar, a front zip closure, raglan sleeves with contrast piping, welt pockets and elasticated cuffs and hem.
The Zip-Through Shacket draws attention due to its adjustable toggle drawcords at the hemline. We also offer the matching co-ord trousers. When paired together, the coordinated look gives a sportier direction to the outfit.
The Half-Zip Shacket is the easiest to throw on. It is available in grey and off-white colorways. The half-zip front and raglan sleeves add a sophisticated touch, while slant side pockets, elasticated cuffs and a straight hem finish off the look.
The Short-Sleeve Shacket is a more laid-back option with a full two-way zip front, short sleeves, topstitched details and a straight hem.
How to Style a Shacket
Our men’s shackets can be styled in different ways. Accentuate your look and add versatility to your winter styles this season. You can wear a shacket as a standalone piece. You can also pair it in two ways: either as a layer or under a layer.
Throw it on a basic T-shirt and pair it with jeans, or over a fine-knit polo paired with straight trousers for mild days. For cold days, wear it under a coat. Our shackets are available as co-ord pieces. You can get the same matching trousers for a smarter and hassle-free look. Explore our trousers for men for more options.
