Choosing a jacket color

Color changes the whole feel of a jacket. A good choice is one you will reach for again and again.

Here is how to think about it.

Black

Black goes with everything and works day or night. It is an easy first choice.

Both biker jackets come in black.

Brown and tan

Brown and tan are warmer and softer. They suit jeans, cream knits and earth tones.

The Women's Slim Fit Biker Jacket comes in black and the Men's Classic Biker Jacket in black, blue or red. The cropped bomber comes in two styles shown on its page and the trucker in brown, coffee, deep brown, green or gray.

Olive and khaki

Olive on the Men's Bomber Jacket is a calm, workwear green. Khaki on the Women's Long Trench Coat is a classic coat color.

Both pair with neutrals.

A simple rule

Look at what you already own. If most of your wardrobe is dark and cool, pick black. If it is warm and earthy, pick brown or tan.

Screens show color a little differently, so allow for small changes in person.

Colors across the range

Black is offered in most styles. Brown appears on the trucker, and the cropped bomber comes in two styles shown on its page. Khaki is on the blazer, and khaki and dark khaki are on the trench coat. Check each page for the colors listed.

Try laying a jacket photo next to your favorite shirts on your screen. If it looks good with most of them, you have your color.
