Start Here: Form Follows Function (and Fit)

The number of buttons on your jacket is the first—and most important—style decision you’ll make. It sets the tone for the entire piece, from how it looks to how it fits and feels. Here’s how to decide what works best for your style, your proportions, and your goals.

Clean. Versatile. Timeless.

Single-breasted jackets are the most common for a reason—they’re easy to wear and work in almost any setting.

• Two-button: The most popular option (80%+ of jackets we make). Balanced and adaptable for most builds and settings.
• One-button: Slightly more formal with a lower button stance. Great for shorter guys—it elongates the lapel and visually lengthens the torso.
• Three-button (3-roll-2): Rarely used today, but still has classic appeal. The lapel rolls over the top button, offering a subtle vintage nod.

Bottom line: If you want an easy, reliable go-to jacket—start here.

Structured. Sartorial. Bold.

Double-breasted jackets are next-level. They make a stronger impression and deliver a more tailored silhouette.

• 6x2 double-breasted: Six buttons, two fastened. Traditional and sharp.
• 4x2 double-breasted: Cleaner and more modern. Skips the “nipple buttons” while keeping the wrap and structure.
• Best for: Those who already love tailoring and want to push the look further. They’re a little harder to wear—but worth it if you’re into it.

• Want versatility? Go with a two-button single-breasted.
