Wikipedia

  1. Sport coat

    A sport coat, also called a sport jacket (or sports coat or sports jacket in American English), is a men's smart casual lounge jacket designed to be worn on its own without matching trousers, traditionally for sporting purposes. Styles, fabrics, colours and patterns are more varied than in most suits; sturdier and thicker fabrics are commonly used, such as corduroy, suede, denim, leather, and tweed. Originally, sports coats were worn as appropriate attire for participating in certain outdoor sports. With time, they were adopted by those attending such events, and came to be used on more formal occasions, sometimes being used in school uniforms.

  1. sport coat

    A sport coat, also known as a sports jacket, is a tailored garment for men, somewhat analogous to a suit jacket, but less formal. It is typically made from sturdy or hard-wearing fabric and typically includes features such as notch lapels, a left chest pocket, and two or three front button closures. It is worn over a shirt and is designed to be worn with trousers that are not made of the same fabric or have the same pattern, unlike a suit jacket. Its purpose is to provide a slightly formal appearance without the strictness of a full suit.

  1. Sport coat

    A sport coat, sport jacket, also called a sports coat or sports jacket, less commonly sportcoat, is a jacket for men. Though it is of a similar cut and length to a suit jacket, there are several differences. First, a sport may be worn on less formal occasions than a suit would be. Also, it is designed to be worn on its own, without matching trousers, and does not come as part of a suit. Styles, fabrics, colours and patterns are also more varied than in most suits; sturdier and thicker fabrics may be used, such as corduroy, suede, denim, leather, and tweed. Originally, sports coats were worn as casual attire for hunting and other outdoor sports. With time, they came to be used on more formal occasions, sometimes being used in school uniforms as at Summer Fields School in England.
