Fashion’s love affair with football shouldn’t go into hibernation just because everyone’s obsessed with shirts and shorts. The beautiful game has lots to offer in the seemingly endless winter months, too. In the third iteration of the VERSUS Edit, we ask you to turn your attention to outerwear.Everyone loves a big jacket. When the nights get longer and the temperature drops, we all scramble for our wardrobe’s most effective, pragmatic and ultimately, stylish item. Football managers are no exception. Arsène Wenger, Sir Alex Ferguson, Emma Hayes. They’re all fans of ‘le grand manteau’. After all, they’re professional patrollers of the outside - people who spend countless hours in the cold with nothing but painted lines and their big jackets to keep them company. Short, long, padded or tailored - the big manager jacket has become a football fashion staple.So given the climate, it’s only right we dived into the world of hiemal layering and imagined what would happen if managers took jackets seriously. We’ve got High Press Perfectionists in Prada, Man-Management Maestros in Monclizzy and a Louis-wearing gaffer on the brink of the sack. Instead of scrolling through TikTok for fit inspo this winter, have a look in the dugout - you might just find something special. 1.
