Parka, a.k.a the cold weather's best friend, is always there in men's first aid fashion.

Even so, mix-and-matching the waterproof fashion item to make it look proper (like, James Bond-proper, red.) is quite tricky. How do we keep up with the utilitarianism of parka during chilly days without saying goodbye to lavishness?

1. SIZE DOES MATTER.

When you think about how many layers you might wear underneath it, you need to calculate that into your sizing plan. The oversized fit will leave plenty of room for layering.

2. NOT EVERYTHING IS BLACK & WHITE.

There is no rule that says a parka needs to be a dark solid color, so think outside of the box: New prints and colors is a surprising way to make a statement when wearing simple, classic work separates.

3. CASUALIZE.

Pull on your denim shirt paired with chino jeans for a stylish chilly day ensemble. Wear this with running shoes or sandals for a casual daytime look. You can opt for all white outfits and combine it with colored parka. It’s going to be amazing trendy combo!
