Summer Essentials
Stying stylish in the summer can sometimes feel like a challenge. That's why we have selected pieces we believe are the best fit for the season. Everything from stylish linen suits to relaxed accessories that complete the look.
The tailored denim
At Oscar Jacobson, our aim is to craft a wardrobe that caters to the modern man, ensuring he feels impeccably dressed for all facets of life – from work to leisure and festive occasions. A few years ago, we made the decision to include jeans in our permanent collection. Our Creative Director, Mats Pettersson, contacted Roland Hjort. Roland, a legend in Scandinavian fashion, is best known for his own brand, WhyRed, and for his extensive and distinctive knowledge of denim and jeans.
Pastels for spring
As the spring arrives, so does the mood for pastels. Soft shades of pink, blue, and yellow is a perfect way to make your spring look feel updated and ready for the season. Dare to go for the full suit or pair your linen trousers with a pastel shirt. Pastels goes great together and as a pop of color combined with beiges and whites.

We gave them free rein to choose and try out their favorite items from the store, resulting in a fun afternoon filled with discussions about sustainability, style, and personality. And most importantly, differences and similarities.
