WALLACE | Lightweight jacket with a stand collar

I keep it in the truck. That is the highest compliment I can pay a jacket.

The hard part about spring here is not the cold, it is the swing. Seventy at noon in the parking lot, fifty-five by the time you come out of dinner. Most men solve it with a jacket that is too much for the first half of the day, so it ends up over the back of a chair.

This one is cut light enough that you can keep it on when it warms up. The collar stands rather than folding flat, which keeps a draft off the back of the neck without the bulk of a hood. It layers over a shirt or a polo without adding a size to your shoulders.

Why men our age keep coming back to it

• Warmth without bulk. Thin enough that you are not carrying it by ten in the morning, which is the failure mode of most spring jackets.
• The stand collar does real work. It sits up against the back of the neck, which is where you actually feel a cool evening.
• It layers cleanly. Cut with enough room for a shirt underneath without the shoulders looking padded.
• Four colors including white. Black, Gray, White and Purple, so there is one that is not another dark jacket.

How it fits

True to size over a shirt. Sizes S through 3XL, so this one stops earlier than several of our jackets. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one, because a light jacket only works if there is room for what you are wearing underneath it.
