Step back into timeless style with this OLD JOE British Tweed Sack Jacket in black. Made in Japan from 100% British wool, this piece draws direct inspiration from early 20th century tailored jackets, with an unconstructed cut and construction that sets it apart from modern tailoring.
The fabric is a herringbone basketweave with a complex, irregular layout, woven from wool dyed using OLD JOE's own recipe to create uneven, textured yarn. White neps scattered throughout give the black cloth real depth and character. Wear the lapels open for a classic tailored look, or button them up close to the neck for something closer to a stand collar; the way you fasten it changes the whole feel of the jacket.
OLD JOE is well known among vintage enthusiasts for recreating workwear and tailoring from the 1910s through the 1930s, right down to historic patterns and custom dye recipes. If you're into RRL or Orgueil, this jacket sits right alongside them.
