Simple Jacket
One part refined, one part casual, our Simple Jacket reinterprets the understated elegance of the 1960s sack suit with tasteful GV updates. Unlined, unstructured, and cut to wear as an everyday piece, the Simple Jacket was designed to move with you, wherever you take it. Patch pockets, a notch lapel, and horn buttons maintain a sense of heritage pedigree all the while.
Elevating this style is a remarkable donegal bouclé wool fabric from Vitale Barberis Canonico, a storied woolen mill located in Italy's Piedmont region. For those unfamiliar, VBC is the oldest mill in the world, and has created superlative woolen fabrics since 1663. To say we're thrilled about this fabric is an understatement.
Woven using 100% merino wool bouclé yarns, this fabric combines performance with elegance in equal parts. Wrinkle resistant, insulating, and delicately textured, this fabric nods to Scottish tweeds but avoids their unfavorable itch. How so? Bouclé yarns are looped throughout the weave to soften the fabric to a cashmere-like feel. It wears wonderfully against the skin, so styling this Simple Jacket with a t-shirt is no problem.
Like all of our Simple Jackets, this style was cut and sewn at our factory in Rochester, NY.

Characteristics:
This fabric has a few key characteristics, most of which are in the name itself. First, it's crafted from 100% merino wool, which imbues the textile with performance characteristics that make it moisture wicking, antimicrobial, insulating, and resilient. It's also created with Donegal-style yarns, which are flecked with contrasting colors than add a heathered, tweed-like texture. Lastly, these yarns were woven in a bouclé style, which means little loops of yarn rise to the surface of the fabric for increased texture and unbelievable softness. Form and function come together at every step, which is no surprise given that this fabric is from Vitale Barberis Canonico, the oldest textiles mill in the world.
