Preparing for an Unpredictable British Summer

May 2018

Unfortunately, the British weather is renowned for being fickle and unpredictable, making it even harder to dress appropriately.

At David Aitchison Menswear, we feel that the key to staying warm and dry this summer is to layer.

Firstly, you should aim for lightweight, breathable and comfortable materials in your tops or shirts, such as linen and cotton. This not only keeps you cool when the temperatures rise, but are easy to add something over the top should it get chilly or drizzly. You could also easily add a thin pullover or jacket.

Jackets are an essential for a British summer, preparing you for those showers and cooler temperatures. From blazers to stylish overcoats, we have an extensive range of jackets in a variety of styles and colours, suiting your every need and look.

If you’re looking for a more casual style, carry a light jumper or pullover around with you. Make a statement with a bright colour or keep it neutral. Whatever your preference, you will be sure to find one in store.

Another important consideration is shoes. You want to keep your feet warm and dry, but also cool. When you aren’t ready to brave sandals, browse our range of comfortable trainers, pumps and boat shoes, made by the highest quality brands Geox and Pikolinos.
