Shackets for Men
Shackets for men—also known as safaris, hunter jackets, sahariana, or overshirts for men—have become a wardrobe essential for modern-day style and versatility. A shacket is a stylish hybrid of a shirt and a jacket, offering the perfect balance of comfort, structure, and practicality.
Ideal for transitional weather, men’s shackets are lightweight yet layered enough to keep you warm. From rugged cotton twill and linen blends to wool checks and denim, there’s a fabric and fit for every season and occasion. Whether you're heading out for brunch, a casual office day, or a weekend getaway, a well-fitted shacket elevates your outfit instantly.
Shackets can be styled effortlessly—throw one over a basic tee with jeans, pair it with chinos, or even layer it over a kurta for a fusion look. The structured pockets and tailored cuts of saharianas or safari-style shackets also bring a touch of military-inspired edge to your style.
In short, overshirts for men are not just functional but fashionable. Add one to your rotation for an easy upgrade to your casual or smart-casual wardrobe.
