How to wear a green overshirt?

As part of our overshirt colour combination tips, we talk about the colour green. As a plant colour and very natural colour, it is no coincidence that green is associated with exploration and adventure. Originally worn by the army for its camouflage ability, green has slowly established itself in the fashion world. Today, people associate this colour with adventure, nature and balance. To make your green shirt jacket your best ally, just as Watson could be for Holmes, here are our styling tips and look ideas!

Of course, there are a variety of shades of green, but most overshirts are khaki or olive green. So we're talking dark greens here, but we're not talking English greens either. If you've been looking for a color to match your emerald green, you've landed on the wrong page! And as you can guess, we can't go very far when it comes to colors, because only a few shades go well with green. So we went with beige and white, both light colors, one of which is a bit warmer and often preferred for summer. You can't go wrong with these two! Opt for a pair of beige chinos that will add a touch of chic as you walk by. And to accommodate our white, there's nothing better than the piece intended under the famous overshirt, because yes, that's what it's for. Whether you wear a T-shirt or a shirt is up to you, but one thing is for sure: you will exude freshness with these pure colors.

If you wear a shirt under it, you should think about a few things, after all, we are the specialists in this field. Choose an original collar like the mandarin collar or the reverse collar. This will support your authenticity that you have achieved with the green shirt jacket. And most importantly, you see them so rarely that you have to try them to distinguish yourself from the classic collars. But, yes, dare!

Here's the corner with our special recommendations on how to best combine your green shirt jacket. And we will follow up with brown. This color is easy to combine with green, especially in camouflage patterns, by contrasting the light tone of the green with a bold shade of brown. So why not highlight the beautiful leather belt that has been with you for years? Otherwise, go for shoes that are made of brown leather and contrast better with the green of the top in your outfit.

If you are like 80% of men, you must have blue in your closet, and that's good, because it goes just as well with our green. For example, go for navy blue pants or even jeans for an added touch of casualness. With the shirt jacket you will have a real adventurer look, with which you will be ready for any challenge with a good pair of jeans.
