The Best Ways To Style A Gilet

As the seasons change and the crisp air beckons, it’s time to throw on your gilet! Our range of men’s gilets and women’s gilets showcase an array of styles. Whether you’re strolling through the countryside or navigating the bustling city streets, styling a gilet can elevate your outfit while keeping you warm and comfortable. In this guide, we’ll explore how to style a gilet for various occasions.


1. The Countryside Classic Look

To begin, you can’t go wrong with a classic country look and a Barbour gilet is sure to do the trick! To style, choose a gilet in earthy tones such as olive green or classic navy. Layer it over a well-fitted checked or patterned shirt and a pair of denim jeans. Finish the look with a pair of leather boots and a flat cap for that timeless rural charm. Barbour offer a vast selection of iconic country inspired designs that you are sure to adore!

Secondly, the gilet is an excellent choice for seasonal countryside pursuits. Choose a high-quality fleece gilet in a muted, earthy hue. Consider renowned brands like Harkila and Alan Paine!

Pair it with a breathable shooting shirt that offers both freedom of movement and style. Opt for tweed trousers and some well-insulated boots.

3. Urban Chic

Thirdly, choose a sleek and streamlined quilted gilet in either a bold statement colour or a neutral palette like black or grey. Barbour International is a great brand to consider! Layer a Barbour International gilet over a tailored sweater or a turtleneck for a polished appearance. Complete the urban look with slim-fit trousers and a pair of stylish trainers or Chelsea boots.

4. Don’t Forget To Accessorise Your Gilet

Finally, when it comes to accessorising your gilet, there’s no better choice than a classic hat! To add an air of timeless charm, don a flat cap in tweed or a wool fedora in a rich earthy hue. Not only do they shield you from the elements but also exude rustic sophistication. These headwear choices look great when worn with a Schoffel gilet!
