Make it match in a men’s coord set. Whether you’re looking for something cosy, casual and put together or you want a short and shirt set that makes an impact, a coord could just be the casualwear you’re looking for.
A men’s coord set (also known as a coordinate or coord) is a matching outfit that consists of a top and bottom that go together. Usually this means they’re the same colour, pattern, fabric or style They’re stylish, comfortable and usually look more put together than separates, but you can split them and wear however you want.
Coord sets can be dressed up or down, depending on the occasion and your personal style. It might be a less formal take on a suit with a casual blazer and tailored trousers, polo shirt and shorts, or it could be joggers and a matching overshirt. A coord is versatile and easy to wear, whatever the occasion or season.
If you want to keep things simple, then a matching coord set takes the guesswork out of putting together an outfit. They’re designed to work together to create a cohesive and polished look. You can change up what you wear them with and how you wear them too which can seriously enhance your wardrobe options.
Men’s coords are definitely in fashion all year round, and not just as casualwear for around the house. In spring and summer you’ll see matching shirts, shorts and T-shirts for a stylish look that’s easy to wear and keeps your luggage weight down. In autumn and winter, jogger and overshirt combos come into their own, and work with long sleeve T-shirts and boots. If where you work has a more relaxed dress code, there’s no reason you can’t throw on a coord to head in for the day. They’re also great for a WFH day.
You’ll see this look on catwalks, celebrities and your favourite style influencers all year round, showing that, in fashion terms, it isn’t going anywhere soon. Picking up a coord will still keep you looking fresh, stylish and in control.
Even when it comes to formalwear, if you’re at an event that doesn’t need a suit or tuxedo, co-ordinating your trousers and waistcoat can be a great way to keep it smart but a little more relaxed. This means you can rock a coord as workwear and stay on trend, even if your office is more business than casual.
