Description

The Navy Wool Twill Roger Jacket by Fortela is inspired by US Navy jackets worn for training in the 1920s, and car coats from the 1950s, with a refined fit and detailing. This Jacket is crafted in a 14 oz. Superfine Wool Twill milled by Manteco® using mulesing-free wool from ethically raised sheep, and lightly brushed to a melton finish for a water-resistant, durable, and sophisticated cloth with a luxurious drape. This garment is suited for any new-classic enthusiast, with improved aesthetics 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 such as a single-breasted concealed-button front, a point collar, and raglan sleeves, providing a functional, drape-focused fit. It is adjustable in the back with cinch buckle tabs, accompanied by slant buttoned flap patch lower pockets and adjustable tab-buttoned cuffs. Drawing inspiration from heritage workshop productions and evolving vintage styles, this classically designed jacket is fully lined with viscose, featuring interior patch pockets, and is finished with genuine horn buttons and felled seams throughout. The Navy Wool Twill Roger Jacket will become a 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.
