Swiss Army Overcoat - Fox Brothers® Dark Walnut Brown Tweed Twill

Description

The Swiss Army Overcoat by MotivMfg x Division Road is designed as a meeting point between WWI trench coats and modern, tailored outerwear pieces made for the future. This coat is derived from 1920s Swiss and Eastern European military overcoats, recreated in an anatomically tailored fit with set-in sleeves and a center middle back pleat to allow for movement with a design-centric approach and a buttoned tab to adjust the drape in an outstanding fabric that will naturally outlast any generation or future war. Providing a flexible form in a cut perfectly balanced between vintage and contemporary, this coat is made in a limited bolt, heavyweight 18 oz. Walnut Brown Tweed Twill weave produced at the 200-year-old original Somerset mill by the world-famous Fox Brothers® using the finest 100% British Merino Wool in a worsted, suiting grade fabric engineered for the outdoors. Since 1772, Fox Brothers has produced top-tier textiles used in many applications, from Savile Row tailoring to British Military garments. By sourcing the best fibers from around the world and using intensive hand-driven milling and cording processes, they produce fabrics of the highest grade with comfort, density, and durability, all wrapped into one. This incredibly flexible and robust twill wool comes in a natural palette to reflect the Devon coast countryside transitioning into the Exmoor wilderness it's designed to confront. It boasts a complex cloth using yarns dyed in chocolate, brown, and camel shades for a refined aesthetic and luxuriously textured finish. This Swiss Army Overcoat is designed with a rolling double breast front and buttoned notched collar with an additional and removable anatomical throat latch to combat weather with styling and functional versatility along with a Tencel twill lined body and Bemberg lined sleeves, resulting in a finely finished, dutiful, and comfortable multi-season coat with a sophisticated drape. Paying homage to the originals via practical refinement, this coat has beautifully shaped utilitarian pocketing with slanted wide welt and overstitched front pockets, four interior buttoned pockets for carrying various armaments, and adjustable tab button cuffs for styling in stormy conditions. This coat is packed with superior bespoke and old-world detailing like taped and felled seams, zigzag back collar stitching, bartack reinforcements throughout, and genuine ebony horn buttons with a unique matte finish. MotivMfg has re-established a pattern-to-bespoke garment one-roof workshop in Beijing with the ethos, process, techniques, and materials of Savile Row to produce historically informed garments in styles and production methods lost by the West. We are honored to partner with MotivMfg to offer completely exclusive collaborations for a new and timeless uniform for the Division Road Army.
