The Barn Jacket Earns Its Place on the Island This Fall

As the season turns, the barn jacket is having its moment on the sartorial radar — sturdy, unfussy, and suited equally to a morning on the water or an afternoon errand down Worth Avenue. It is the kind of piece that reads as considered rather than trendy, layering easily over the sort of clothes already in a well-kept closet. The appeal is in its versatility: built for the country, at ease in town.
