My Outerwear Collection (8 Essential Pieces)

About this video

McGoff reviews his personal outerwear collection to help shorter men find jackets that flatter their build. He walks through each piece from lightweight windbreakers to heavy parkas, discussing fit, seasonality, and specific brand recommendations for men below average height.

Key takeaways

  • McGoff argues that shorter men should prioritize slim-fit outerwear and adjustable features like drawstrings and cuff buttons to ensure proper fit
  • McGoff recommends building a layered outerwear collection across seasons, including lightweight pieces like field jackets and vests for fall/spring, and heavier options like top coats and parkas for winter
  • McGoff suggests that top coats are more flattering than peacoats for shorter builds and recommends brands like Peter Manning, Banana Republic, and Alpha Industries as reliable sources for well-fitting outerwear
