Key fashion trends of the season: Men's jackets

Some folks aren't coat people, they get too hot and bothered. Bridge the wintry gap with an outerwear jacket. At Alexander McQueen they showed a classic peacoat style with a removable leather gilet to jazz it up. We like it. Especially when worn with a big chunky fisherman knit. Here are ten of the best winter jackets for men
