Boden have just released a macintosh from their new menswear collection and it has caused a huge stir in the press.
The classic Macintosh design will stand the test of time, so long as you invest in a quality piece of workmanship. Lightweight but shower-proof and fully lined for extra warmth, this Mac by Boden will see off the winter onslaught with panache. Unlike many far more expensive versions, it’s fully machine washable, so you’ll save a fortune on dry-cleaning bills. As for colour, beige is the classic and will best suit those with a light complexion, while black or navy will work better for darker skins. Look for a style that finishes an inch or two above the knee, like this one. Hip-length Macs will make taller guys look even more gangly than they already are, while longer styles overwhelm shorter men. So cropped is your friend if you’re Sarkozy-sized.

The Boden Macintosh was also featured in Vogue who advised you to “take a crisp men’s shirt out of the city and team with a classic trench and cropped wellies”.
