Though we would never throw on a pair of fatigues and try to pawn them off as a fashion statement, we do think that there is something to be said about a little bit of military inspiration working its way into a wardrobe from time to time.  Now, we’re not suggesting going out and buying a replica uniform, but certain pieces can be easily adapted to a civilian wardrobe.  One of the best is a peacoat.  For an authentic Navy look, go with the Navigator ($265) by Sterlingwear of Boston.

Sterlingwear of Boston has been the sole provider of Navy peacoats for more than 40 years, with that kind of track record their wares will always be welcomed in our rotation.  Their Navigator peacoat is cut from the same patterns, and made to the exact same specs, as authentic Navy peacoats with one small change, the lining.  For those of us who like the military look, but want a little bit more luxury, the Navigator features a full satin lining.  Available in black, navy, or camel, and featuring a 24oz. 100% virgin melton wool shell, this peacoat will not only keep you warm in the coldest of conditions, it will last a lifetime and then some.
