Last weekend I went through my rotation of suits and sport coats, put those more lightweight and summer colored pieces back to storage and took some seasonal pieces made of flannel and heavier wool fabrics back to the rack.
Among those seasonal fall and winter jackets was also the pictured sport coat by Italian G.Abo. Made of semi lightweight wool fabric with a blue and brown overcheck, minimal construction, no lining and featuring two patch pockets, soft shoulder structure and 3-roll-2 buttoning it is a pretty much a perfect sport coat for fall season.
In my book the jacket is especially appropriate to be used for those semi-formal office days when you don't need to be fully dressed up but you need to go for something dressier than denim and knitwear - i.e like seen here, the jacket paired with denim shirt, mid-grey flannel trousers and orange silk-wool tie. For this ensemble I chose to go with brown calf leather balmoral boots which some people might keep too "dressy" compared to other pieces of the outfit.
Wearing:
Sport coat: G.Abo Napoli Denim shirt (mtm): Proper Cloth Trousers: Incotex
Tie: Berg&Berg PS: Drake's London Boots: Grenson (masterpiece)
