Too often men think that they have two choices for metro Milwaukee mens outerwear – they can wear the same thing they did during the spring and freeze, or they can wear a huge puffy jacket that makes them look like the Michelin man. Luckily, luxury mens fashion today includes so much more than that, so you can look great and keep warm, too. And it’s all thanks to technical fabrics.

Nylon shells are big this time of year, even when you’re wearing a coat to the office. And no, this fabric is not just for your best mens sportswear. Nylon ripstop fabrics are the same thing you’ll find in any lightweight tent, but they’ve been re-purposed so that they not only fit great sports coats, but can also be the thin layering on top of trench coats, business coats, and any coat you need while making your way through downtown this winter. It will be sure to keep the water off you, and out of your jacket.

You’ll need it too, because some of the best business coats for winter are filled with goose down – a fabric that goes above any other when it comes to keeping you warm. But that down won’t do you any good if it gets wet, which is why you need to ensure you have a waterproof fabric such as a nylon shell covering it. And the bonus? It’ll keep out the wind, too.

You can keep warm this winter, while still looking cool and stylish. Simply learn about the technical fabrics that are out there, and the types of styles you can wear while on your way to the office, or a night on the town.
