The Right Technique to Properly Button Suit Jackets

You may have single breasted suits and blazers with one, two, three, or four buttons. You may also have double breasted suits with different button styles. Everyone has a personal style, but when it comes to buttoning your suit jackets, it is important to know what is proper.

Single Breasted One Button Suit Jackets

While standing, your single breasted one button jacket should be buttoned up. Unbutton it when you sit down. It will be uncomfortable if you leave it buttoned and it may also loosen the fabric’s integrity.

Single Breasted Two Button Suit Jackets

This is probably the most timeless style in men’s suit jackets. Only fasten the top button on this jacket and keep it unbuttoned when you sit.

Single Breasted Three Button Suit Jackets

In the single breasted three button, always button the middle, you can button the top, and leave the lower ones unbuttoned. When you sit down, undo the buttons.

Double Breasted Suit Jackets

Double breasted jackets may have just two, four, six, or eight buttons. You can button them all except the bottom one, which should be left unbuttoned. However, when you are sitting in a double breasted suit jacket, keep it buttoned. So, never wear a double breasted jacket unbuttoned, ever.

That’s crisp, straight up style advice to help you with an impeccable dressing style, regardless of the occasion. And don’t forget that tailored suits are ALWAYS better than off-the-rack clothing.

How to Style a Black Suit for Every Occasion

A black suit is one of the three fundamental suits every man should have, the other two being the navy blue and the grey suit.
