Description

The Green Herringbone Twill Army Jacket by Fortela is inspired by M44 military-style field jackets worn by US Army personnel in WWII with a refined fit and detailing. This Jacket is made from a heavyweight 12 oz. Italian Herringbone Twill that has been washed for softness, texture, and drape in an iconic military cloth known for its durability and comfort that improves with age. This garment is suited for any new-classic enthusiast with an improved aesthetic and detailing in an authentic up-production inspired by the timeless battle-tested original known for its uniform dress functionality. Derived from Alessandro Squarzi's famous archives, it comes with signature elements like a point collar and dispatch lapel that buttons up or lays down for styling and conditional adaptations, set-in sleeves articulated with an underarm gusseted panel, and aged gunmetal reproduction military star buttons for the front placket, cuffs, and flap front gusseted patch chest pockets. Speaking to heritage workshop productions and evolving vintage, this cleanly designed jacket has a pleated back shoulder, a wide straight hem that hits at the waistline, an adjustable back cinch buckle and tabs, and is completed with felled seams, bartack reinforcements, and double and single needle construction throughout. The Green Herringbone Twill Army Jacket will become that style-forward heritage hallmark informed by militaria and workwear with a modern fit, designed for the man who balances his current fashion with old-world provenance.
