Ses manches et épaulettes sont très travaillés. De plus, ses cols arrondis avec de jolis motifs brodés sur le buste lui confèrent une allure singulière. Son caractère digest et pratique, constitue indéniablement, un autre de ses atouts. De ce fait, il peut être arboré à divers moments de la vie sociale. Par exemple, à l’occasion de mariages, anniversaires, baptêmes. Egalement, pour des moments beaucoup plus ‘’selects’’, comme aux rendez-vous professionnels, d’affaires etc…
