For a laid-back outfit with a modernized spin, you can easily rock a tan crew-neck sweater and jeans. You can take a more relaxed approach with footwear and introduce a pair of black and white canvas high top sneakers to the mix. Think it's hard for men over 40 to perfect cool off-duty outfits? This combo is a vivid demonstration of otherwise.
This pairing of a tan crew-neck sweater and jeans is on the off-duty side but will guarantee that you look dapper and incredibly sharp. Put a smarter spin on an otherwise mostly dressed-down look by slipping into a pair of tan suede casual boots. Those who are dubious whether you can still wear modern off-duty looks well into your 40s, this outfit should answer your question.
