Military Classics
The appeal of military style is eternal. Camo may be having a moment, but the plain everyday classics are truly timeless and will always make a guy look stylishly rugged. The pea coat proves that point. But there are a handful of standard-issue items—ones can be deployed no matter the time of year—that will always be in style. And the best part is that you can get most of them on the cheap from a local surplus shop.
