Description

The Undyed Beige Wool Herringbone Twill Cruiser Bomber Jacket by Fortela is inspired by aviator and flight jackets worn by military personnel from WWII onwards, with a refined fit and detailing. This unlined Bomber Jacket is crafted in a 14 oz. Natural Wool Herringbone Twill milled by Manteco® using undyed shear colors of mulesing-free wool from ethically raised sheep, spun into yarns and woven as a broken twill to recreate a vintage pattern with a softened texture and luxurious drape. 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 features signature elements such as a ribbed wool flat collar, a front button closure, flap-front patch pockets, and decorative ribbed wool hem and cuffs for exquisite detailing. Speaking to heritage workshop productions and evolving vintage, this cleanly designed jacket has a classic fit. It is unlined for styling, convertibility, and layering, and is completed with espresso genuine horn buttons, felled and taped seams, bartack reinforcements, and single- and double-needle construction throughout. The Beige Wool Herringbone Cruiser Bomber 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.
