Description

The Earth Shetland Houndstooth Check Corrado Double Breasted Jacket by Fortela draws inspiration from Dolce Vita tailoring pieces, combining casual elegance with a refined fit and character-rich fabric. This Jacket is crafted in a 14 oz. Shetland Tweed loomed from 100% British Virgin Wool, with a shear "dyed in the wool" process that allows unique texture and tonal variations to emerge. It features an earthy charcoal-brown base with a forest green and deep purple houndstooth check pattern, and subtle burnt red accent. This garment is suited for any new-classic enthusiast with an improved aesthetic and detailing in an authentic up-production inspired by the timeless original, known for its uniform dress functionality. Derived from Alessandro Squarzi's renowned archives, this piece features signature elements, including a double-breasted buttoned front with a peak lapel, a dual-vented back, a darted body, a welt chest pocket, flap front welted pockets, dual interior welt pockets, and a lower welt pocket for small essentials. Reflecting heritage workshop productions and evolving vintage, this classically designed jacket is fully viscose-lined, constructed with full canvas, and features a soft shoulder for a casually structured drape, functional buttoned cuffs, and is completed with genuine horn buttons. The Shetland Houndstooth Check Corrado Double Breasted Jacket will become that style-forward heritage hallmark informed by tailoring with a modern fit, designed for the man who balances his current fashion with old-world provenance.
