Wool-cashmere blazer. It has a fishmouth-shaped lapel, with slightly rounded tips, a fairly relaxed and unstructured fit, and dropped shoulders for ease of movement.
The blazer has two “up-and-under” patch-pockets on the front, and its sleeves are self-faced at the ends, so they can be rolled up a couple of times without showing the lining.
Production run: Five.

Materials
The jacket is made from a wool-cashmere cloth, from a cashmere mill in West Yorkshire.
It has been woven into a “birdseye” pattern. The pattern is made up of four colours: black, and three shades of grey. The cloth has a very soft handle — mostly due to the high-quality cashmere content, but also the process the cloth undergoes at the mill. It is scoured, milled (i.e. bashed around to loosen its fibres) and then surface-abrased to soften its surface. “Not an exact science,” in the words of the mill — but part of the finished article’s charm. It is, as such, warm, hardy, and skin-friendly cloth.
The buttons are real horn. They are dark matte tortoiseshell in colour, and are made at a 150-year old button factory in the Midlands.
Make and finish
The garment is made and finished in London.
