From Boardroom to Boarding Gate: The Jacket Men Actually Wear Everywhere

Lately, I’ve found myself living out of a suitcase. The beginning of the year always seems particularly hectic, and this one was no exception. In the space of a single week, I went from Saudi Arabia to London, then Milan, and finally Switzerland. At every stop, I was expected to look sharp, which is no easy feat when your wardrobe is limited to what fits in hand luggage.

Enter the L’Estrange 360° Jacket. the ideal companion for the frequent traveller. Launched just last year, it has already built something of a cult following and regularly sells out.

The real star is the fabric. The jacket is made from 360°TechKnit™, a Japanese, 100% recycled nylon with added stretch and water resistance. In practical terms, that means it’s exceptionally comfortable, lightweight, and crucially, often remains crease-free, making it perfect for walking straight off a plane and into a meeting. The four-way stretch adds to the comfort, particularly when paired with the matching 360° Trouser, creating a refined yet flexible travel uniform.

Both pieces are impressively lightweight, making them easy to pack, while still delivering a polished, tailored look.

I’m a firm believer that nothing beats a good suit, but a rigid one rarely travels well. The 360° range offers a smarter alternative: structured enough to look considered, yet relaxed enough to move with you. Its clean silhouette allows for easy layering, works across seasons, and transitions seamlessly from work to downtime.

One fan is Jenson Button, who describes the 360° Jacket as “my go-to travel essential.” For someone who spends much of his life on the move, it’s easy to see why.

This is performance tailoring for the performance-focused man. L’Estrange has left little to chance in the development of the 360° Jacket, and once you try it, you may well find it hard to go back.

The 360° Jacket is available at lestrangelondon.com and priced at £279.
