BYRON | Button-up jacket with chest pockets

Buttons rather than a zip. My hands prefer buttons and nobody seems to make them anymore.

Zips are quick and they are also small, stiff and occasionally impossible. Cold fingers, arthritic knuckles, a zip that catches at the bottom and needs both hands and some patience. A button front asks less of you and it also looks like something rather than like sportswear.

This one buttons the full length, with two chest pockets and a tailored line through the body so it sits like a jacket rather than hanging off. Six colors, including a white and a red, and the run starts at XS.

Why men our age keep coming back to it

• Buttons, not a zip. Easier on cold or stiff hands, and nothing to catch at the hem.
• Two chest pockets. Sitting where you can reach them with the jacket done up.
• A tailored line. It follows the body through the waist rather than hanging square.
• Six colors from XS. Army Green, Black, White, Navy Blue, Light Blue and Red.

How it fits

Tailored, and cut to go over a shirt rather than a sweater. Sizes XS through 2XL, so it starts small and stops early. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one, and size up if you want a knit underneath.

A few recent reviews

Buttons were the whole reason. My hands do not cooperate with zips in January.

Cut closer than a normal jacket. Went to 2XL and it fits over a shirt only.

The light blue is unusual for a jacket and I get comments.
