Cuban chains are characterised by their bold interlocking round or oval links that lay perfectly flat on the wearer's chest. The chain started to gain in popularity in the 1970s and early 1980s and has since become one of the most wanted and styled chains out there.
With the Cuban chain being so versatile for styling, it can be quite difficult to decide where to start. In this blog, we go over how to style your Cuban chain for different occasions for men.
Consider Your Outfit:
One of the most important aspects to consider when styling a Cuban chain is the outfit you are wearing. In general neutral coloured clothing including white, black and grey look great with a bold Cuban link as their simplicity contrasts with the bold nature of a Cuban chain.
A gold cuban chain is better suited for warmer, deep-tone neutral colour clothes including rich olive green, dark tan, beige and grey. They also work well with simple black, white and grey clothing too.
A silver Cuban chain is better suited for simple neutral coloured clothing including black, white and grey. The reason for this is that the silver Cuban chain doesn’t have a lot of “colour” meaning when paired alongside less colourful clothes will keep the focus on the chain. One benefit of a silver Cuban chain is that they go with almost any style of outfit.
Smart outfits:
Cuban chains go super well with a slightly unbuttoned smart shirt to show off the chunky Cuban links. Pair this with some smart trousers or chinos and smart shoes and you’ve got a style that’s bold and makes you look in charge. For this style, you’ll want to stick with a shorter Cuban chain as you want to be able to see it from the front of your shirt. At the same time you can play around with the thicknesses of your Cubans depending on if you want the chain to be noticeable or lowkey. For a more subtle look opt for a thinner Cuban chain such as a silver 3mm Cuban chain.
Smart casual:
Try pairing a Cuban chain with a smart casual outfit and you won’t regret it. Wearing a Cuban chain outside of your turtle neck or polo can create an eye-catching statement that isn’t commonly seen around. For this look, you’ll want to have a mid-length to long Cuban chain as you want to be able to have the Cuban chain outside of the thick turtleneck or colars of a polo. In addition to this, a thicker Cuban chain also tends to work best with this type of style.

Another way of styling a Cuban chain with a polo is just to unbutton the first few buttons to allow the Cuban chain links to pop out. Similar to the smart look, for this look you’ll want to have a shorter Cuban chain length as you want to be able to see the Cuban chain from the front of your polo.
Casual:
The easiest way to style a Cuban chain by far is to wear them with casual attire. You can’t go wrong with wearing a Cuban chain with a plain coloured t-shirt and jeans, or a t-shirt and joggers. Don't be afraid to add layers to your outfit too, adding jackets or a sweatshirt alongside your Cuban chain can also create a super clean look. This look is the easiest to style, with the length and thickness of the Cuban chain ultimately being up to you to choose!
You can even wear a Cuban chain outside of a hoodie and let it hang below your hoodie. To achieve this look you’ll want to make sure your Cuban chain is long enough to allow you to fit it through the hood. At the same time, this look looks much better with a thicker Cuban chain.
