Weekend Wear: A Stylish Way to Dress Down Your Camel Coat
A camel coat is a menswear classic, and with good reason — they’re functional, luxurious, and understated, without sacrificing style. But just because it’s timeless, doesn’t mean you have to always wear it with other traditional pieces. Pair it with sporty and utilitarian clothing and accessories for a street-savvy look that will also keep you warm.
