Hi.
im not a fashion type guy. I'm a basic person.

a few years ago I bought a jacket from NEXT (in the UK) and LOVED it. sadly though, last year, the jacket was falling apart!

I am since looking for a decent casual summer type jacket but I cannot seem to find one which looks good and has a good amount of pockets (inside pockets, outside pockets and a pocket on the chest area).

anyway, can anyone give me some recommendations on what jackets look good on guys? I REALLY dont know.

thanks1

Every sportcoat has two hip-pockets, two inside breast pockets, and a chest pocket (plus, optionally, a ticket pocket and/or extra inside pockets). I have no idea what you've been looking at that doesn't have these standard pockets.

As for 'which jackets look good', that's quite a vague question. What is your budget? At the same price-range as NEXT, M&S are probably your best bet.
