Swiss Army Overcoat - Fox Brothers® Midnight Overcoating

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, a center-middle back pleat to allow for movement, and a buttoned tab to adjust the drape in an outstanding fabric that will naturally outlast any generation or future war. Providing a substantial form in a cut perfectly balanced between vintage and contemporary, this coat is made from a 25 oz. Fox Brothers® Midnight Overcoating Proper Cloth woven in Fox's 200-year-old original Somerset mill using the finest 100% New Merino Wool. This highly worsted, suiting grade fabric is engineered for the outdoors in a stepped twill weave and flannel finish to combat the elements with a sophisticated aesthetic. 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 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 cotton twill lined body and Lyocell lined sleeves, resulting in a finely finished, dutiful, and comfortable fall-winter coat with an optimally structured 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 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.
