A doublet (/ˈdʌblɪt/; [1] derived from the Ital. giubbetta [2]) is a man's snug-fitting jacket that is shaped and fitted to a man's body. The garment was worn in Spain , and spread to the rest of Western Europe , from the late Middle Ages up to the 17th century.
In 14th century European fashions, men's hose were two separate legs worn over linen drawers, leaving a man's genitals covered only by a layer of the linen drawers. As the century wore on and men's hemline fashion rose, the hose became longer and joined at the centre back, there rising to the waist, but remaining open at the centre front.

The length of the doublet reached the waist but by the late 1650s and early 1660s, the doublet became very short, only reaching the bottom of the rib cage, much like a bolero jacket.
