Sport Coat Vs. Suit Coat
The difference between a men's sport coat and a men's suit coat is simple. Some of the difference is the coat itself, the fabric and the cut of the material. Some is the "where to wear" or the "when to wear." Does this Spark an idea?
-
The Suit Coat
-
The Office The suit coat is obviously meant to be worn with suit pants. But what makes it different than the sport coat is that the material is usually a better quality. The cut of the material is also a tighter fit than the sport coat. The suit coat when worn with suit trousers is not only matched in fabric and color, but also in fit and style.

When to Wear the Suit Coat
-
Sport Coat The suit is considered business formal and is usually worn in the business office. It is also worn at meetings, especially with customers outside the office.
The Sport Coat
-
Casual The sport coat is mostly for business casual, usually worn with a tie and dress slacks. It can also be worn outside of business without a tie.
When to Wear the Sport Coat
-
The Party The sport coat can be worn to the club or the work shop floor. It fits as work casual or off-duty wear. It can be worn with dress slacks and a tie or with blue jeans and tennis shoes.
Mostly When and Where
-
The difference between the suit coat and the sport coat can be summed up as to where will you wear it or why. If it is a formal dress occasion, then a suit coat. If not, a sport coat will do.
