Wear It Out: Effortlessly cool and very versatile men’s look

This week we meet Aidan, lead singer of Wounds and barber at Beards & Barnets in Temple Bar, to chat about his weekend look for pints in Dublin city.

Jacket

Throughout history all the male heartthrobs have rocked the pea coat. If Marlon Brando and Bob Dylan wore it, then it should be the uniform of the people. These coats never go out of style. Just search: Wool US Navy Type Pea Coat, Black by Rothco on Ebay.com and they have this coat available in all sizes.

Pea Coat €70

Boots

Investing in a good pair of boots is very important. Guys can get away with wearing Chelsea boots for almost every occasion so they wont be a waste of money. The soft suede in these boots will only get better with age but make sure you do buy the suede spray with them to protect them from water marks.

Beanie 

All of us – including barbers – have bad hair days and the beanie always comes to the rescue. Carhartt has the shape perfected, and this unisex piece will see you through the winter right through to the tent hair of the festivals.

Carhartt online at www.tribe-clothing.com or in store in Stephens Green Centre, Dublin 2 €17

Necklace

Simple accessories can really add to a guy’s look. This simple pendant ties the whole look together. Topman has a great range of men’s accessories at the moment.

Topman Black leather necklace featuring a caged crystal pendant €25

T-shirt

The loose neckline has also been around for a long time. It is the base for this grungy look. The All Saints T-shirts last that bit longer and hold their shape better. Just don’t throw them in the tumble dryer.

All Saints Tonic Scoop T-shirt €28
