Spring has finally (mostly) arrived, bringing with it bluer skies and the promise of temperatures approaching the high teens. But, dressing for the transitional season can prove tricky, the weather can be unpredictable so it’s important to figure out the perfect pieces to handle the cool nights that won’t make you overheat in the afternoon. We’ve pulled together some of our favourites that’ll mix and match well with what’s already in your wardrobe and will help you nail transitional dressing.
Westbourne Blazer
First up we have Tonic’s take on a classic three-button blazer, the Westbourne. Constructed in Portugal from a 100% cotton twill, it’s the ideal smart-casual layering piece for spring. Westbourne boasts a relaxed silhouette, owing to its unstructured fit, keeping it breathable and comfortable for all day wear. Taking cues from the chore jacket, it features 3 patch pockets and an internal pocket making it a utilitarian, multi-functional staple. Pair it with the matching Ledbury chino for a complete suited look, or wear it over some denim for something a little more casual. Available in Navy or Graphite Grey (pictured).
Golborne Field Jacket
The Golbourne, is a modern take on the classic M-65 military field jacket. Popularised among the masses in the early 70s by counter-culture youth movements, and some iconic characters on the silver screen, the field jacket is a staple piece that has endured. Made from 100% cotton, Golbourne takes its fit from original military specifications featuring a looser body silhouette and full sleeves. Wear yours with a pair of jeans and a white tee; or for something a little dressier try a fine gauge knit and our Londsdale cords. Available in Navy and Olive Green.
Lansdowne Sweatshirt
The value of a reliable sweatshirt is not to be overlooked, for those casual days you need something sturdy and dependable that you can throw on again and again. Enter: Lansdowne our quintessential raglan sleeve sweatshirt. Made from 100% cotton, it’s lightweight and comfortable but warm enough to deal with the spring chill. Lansdowne also has a loopback construction, which helps keep moisture away from the body – ideal for those warmer afternoons. A classic sweatshirt is a firm staple in any wardrobe rotation, pair yours with jeans or chinos for an easy going look. Available in Navy, Black & Olive.
Colville Crew
Knitwear can often be relegated to winter styling, but a good lightweight knit can serve as a useful layering piece for that transitional period between seasons. This spring, trade in your heavier knits for Colville, our fine-gauge crew. Constructed from 100% merino-wool, sustainable and ethically sourced in Scotland, it’s super soft to the touch and ideal for wearing straight to skin. Easily dressed up or down, Colville is an undeniable classic and a worthy addition to any wardrobe. Available in Blue Cosmos, Flannel Grey and Moss Green.
