URBAN Safari

To surf the undulating temperatures of summer you need a suitably utilitarian jacket. Traditionally worn by French farm labourers, chore jackets are the ultimate all-season allrounders, while safari jackets offer a lightweight sartorial option for warmer months. Interpreted for the modern adventure-seeker, both options now work as well on the savannahs of Africa as they do the streets of Shoreditch.

Sure, black Wayfarers work with everything, but to channel California cool you can’t beat a pair of retro tortoiseshell frames. Keep it classic and opt for smaller-sized round shades, or go bold with chunky, square silhouettes. They say circular frames are best for oval faces, and rectangular outlines for longer profiles. But, really, whatever works for you, right?
