SIZE GUIDE (Pop-up)

Why would one boil wool? It's simple. The wool compresses and and the weave tightens, creating a dense, structured cloth that is durable, warm and weather-resistant. At first glance, it looks similar to a flannel, but this boiled wool has a somewhat more crisp and rigid drape, offering clean, tailored lines along with all its performance benefits. 

FABRIC AND TRIMS: 

  • 100% Wool woven in Italy by Leomaster
  • Heavy weight
  • SEASONALITY: The weight and texture of this shirt jacket make it a stand-in for a blazer or mid-weight jacket. The wool is heavy and densely-woven, making it sturdy and warm. 
  • HAND FEEL: This fabric feels tough -- heavy and rustic but also elegant due to its low pile. 
  • COLOR: Blue and brown plaid 
  • BUTTONS: Enamel

HOW IT FITS

  • Our BKT15 Shirt Jacket takes the iconic chore coat of yesteryear as a jumping-off point, but we've updated it with a more modern shape and elevated detailing. It's one of the most versatile pieces in our collection - a perfect layering piece on top of a t-shirt or button-up. More casual than a blazer, more tailored and functional than a cardigan sweater, and equally at home in the office, running errands, or at a dinner party with friends.
  • The fit is straight through the body (not too slim, not too wide), with a straight-bottomed hem hitting below the waistline.

DETAILS

  • Collars and cuffs are constructed with a non-fused, free floating interlining for a more natural drape and longer life
  • 3 patch pockets on the front / exterior
  • Center back seam
  • Single-button barrel cuffs
  • Made in Portugal
