Men's Cotton jackets
This collection pulls together men's cotton jackets—a straightforward choice for India's unpredictable weather windows and layering needs. Cotton at 100% gives you breathability without synthetic feel; the fabric sits around 150–180 GSM depending on the cut, which means it's structured enough to hold shape through wear but light enough for April through November rotation. Styling-wise, these work cleanly over a t-shirt for casual office settings or weekend outings where you need a layer but don't want to reach for something heavier. The weave is tight enough to avoid excessive wrinkling, though cotton will crease—that's inherent to the fiber, not a flaw. Fit runs true to size in Basics cuts; if you typically take M in our t-shirts, M in jackets will sit the same way across shoulders and chest. Machine wash cold, lay flat to dry, and iron on medium if you need sharp creases; avoid the dryer, which accelerates fabric breakdown over time.

Frequently Asked Questions about Jackets
How warm is a 100% cotton jacket compared to a cotton-blend?
Pure cotton insulates moderately—it won't match a fleece or wool blend's warmth. What it does is wick moisture and breathe, making it suited for layering rather than standalone winter wear. A 100% cotton jacket works best October through March in most Indian metros; add a sweater underneath if temperatures drop below 15°C. Cotton-poly blends trap more heat but lose breathability, so choose based on whether you prioritize layering flexibility over pure insulation.
Will this jacket shrink in the wash?
Cotton shrinks 2–5% if exposed to hot water and high heat. Basics cotton is pre-shrunk, so minimal shrinkage occurs with cold-water machine wash and air drying. If you dry on high heat, expect slight tightening in the sleeve and body length. For longevity, wash in 30°C cold water and lay flat or hang to dry. This approach preserves fit and slows fabric fading.
Can I wear this over formal shirts for office?
Yes, but timing matters. Cotton jackets read casual-smart rather than formal—they work over a button-up in an open office or creative setting, or layered under your blazer on cooler days. For strictly formal meetings, a structured wool or wool-blend jacket is safer. If your office leans business-casual, a fitted cotton jacket over a solid shirt and chinos bridges casual and professional cleanly.
How does Basics' cotton jacket fit compare to similar brands?
Basics cotton jackets use a straighter, less tapered cut than premium casualwear brands—they prioritize movement and layering room over a fitted silhouette. Expect a relaxed fit through the chest and waist, and proportional sleeves. If you prefer a slimmer profile, size down one size; if you layer regularly, stick to true size. The cut is intentionally practical rather than fashion-forward.
