Spring is one of those times of year when finding the right balance in what to wear can be particularly difficult. From one day to the next, everything can change. Sometimes we need technical pieces that withstand wind and rain. Then, on sunny days, lighter garments that are easy to slip on are what we look for. Making a jacket for warmer days requires finding the right balance between a comfortable fabric that covers you without restricting you.
In this respect, our linen and cotton work jacket fulfils its role perfectly. Computer screens have their limits, and a few explanations are needed regarding the fabric chosen to make this jacket.
This is a fabric with thick yarns and a relatively open weave – ideal for letting heat escape – while retaining enough density to block the breeze. The yarns are made from 80% linen and 20% cotton, providing good thermoregulation as well as excellent durability, as linen is a strong fibre that does not tend to lose its shape (linen and hemp are among the oldest fibres cultivated for textiles). In short: this jacket has been designed in a high-quality fabric, made to be worn time and again.

The workshop that made this fabric is a particularly responsible Italian company, with strong commitments such as reusing wastewater, electricity generated from solar energy, and developing more environmentally considerate materials through material recycling.
The cut, collar and cuffs are the same as on our classic work jackets. Find out more. The fabric – here a linen and cotton canvas rather than a cotton twill – changes the overall look of this jacket: softer, lighter and more sophisticated too. The patch pockets have been replaced with gusseted pockets inspired by safari jackets. They are attractive, but also very practical for carrying keys, a card holder, lighter and phone.
This piece is an easy-to-wear mid-season jacket, also suitable for summer and early autumn, in a timeless colour reminiscent of denim, with effortless simplicity. Convinced? Visit us here!
