From patterned wools with elbow patches in the winter, to lighter weight options come summer, we’re always looking for a new sportcoat to add to our rotation. Recently, we’ve been on the hunt for something simple that can be worn casually with just about anything this time of year, and found just what we were looking for at J. Crew of all places. Their Twill Ludlow Fit Sportcoats ($148 – $188) are a fantastic addition to any wardrobe.
When it comes to off the rack sportcoats, we’ve found that the Ludlow offerings from J.Crew are some of the best fitting out there. With a trim silhouette, narrow lapels, and a slash pocket, it is one of the few jackets that we can wear without making a trip the tailor. Currently available in desert khaki and navy, these twill sportcoats are a solid compliment to a ton of our favorite warm weather looks. No, they aren’t dressy by any means, but paired with jeans, chinos, of your favorite Go To Hell (or Heck) pants, the Twill Ludlow Sportcoats create a great look for work or play.
