Between outdoor technicality and urban minimalism, discover our selection of mid-season jackets to face the whims of spring in style.
An unpredictable mid-season, an adaptable wardrobe
Spring is that blurry zone between fresh morning air and sunny afternoons. A stylistic conundrum, but also an opportunity to play with layering. The key piece? A lightweight yet functional jacket with a sharp aesthetic. Here are 5 types of jackets to help you navigate the balance between style and weather.
1. The technical jacket — performance and design
👉 Best for: rainy days, sharp urban looks
Outdoor brands like Goldwin and Salomon have mastered the balance between performance and aesthetics. Their jackets made from GORE-TEX or other waterproof membranes offer breathability and protection without sacrificing style.
Our pick: the Goldwin GORE-TEX Spur Mountain Jacket , fitted silhouette and functional details, perfect over cargo or straight pants.
2. The workwear jacket — heritage and robustness
👉 Best for: street or utility looks
Workwear heritage cuts are timeless. A Carhartt WIP jacket in washed canvas or stiff canvas adds character to a simple look.
Our pick: the Detroit Jacket or the Michigan Chore Coat , revisited classics that last through the seasons without aging.
3. The minimalist bomber jacket — street and refined
👉 Best for: clean silhouettes, between casual and smart
Arte Antwerp reinvents the Belgian-style bomber jacket: clean lines, discreet logos, and a monochrome palette. An ideal transitional piece, paired with loose-fitting pants or raw-edge jeans.
Our pick: the Arte Liam Bomber , urban elegance guaranteed.
4. The zipped anorak — 90s spirit and practicality
👉 Best for: fans of layering and revisited archives
The return of 90s silhouettes brings the zip-up anorak back into fashion. Compact and often packable, it slips easily into a bag.
Our pick: the Salomon Advanced colorblock anorak, for fans of mix & match between technical and retro.
5. The structured overshirt – a lightweight alternative
👉 Best for: mild days, stylish layering
Halfway between a shirt and a jacket, the overshirt in twill, nylon, or canvas is a chameleon-like piece. It structures the silhouette without weighing it down.
Our pick: the Goldwin Stretch Light Shirt , an essential of the modern men's wardrobe.
