Pictures of People Wearing... Coach Jackets

• 2 comments

It goes without saying that most decent things speak for themselves and don’t need a team of social media weirdos shouting about them. So, going off the lack of worthwhile things to read on the information-super-highway about them, coach jackets must be pretty darn decent indeed.

As their moniker suggests, these swishy specimens were originally designed to keep baseball coaches (and sometimes, basketball) warm while badgering their players from the bleachers.

They’re not just for sporty sages neither, and have been spotted on West Coast rappers and fictional sadistic detectives.

Here’s some in action…
