Description

The Milk Satin Twill Solomon Military Overshirt by Fortela is inspired by army-style field shirt jackets worn by European personnel in WWII with a refined fit and detailing. This Overshirt is made from a medium weight 10 oz. Italian Twill that has a semi-satin finish that's been washed for softness, texture, and drape in an iconic military cloth known for its durability and wearability, which 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 notched lapel, horn buttons for the front placket, gathered cuffs, flap front gusseted patch chest pockets, and covert side seam welt hand pockets. Speaking to heritage workshop productions and evolving vintage, this cleanly designed shirt jacket has a generous fit for layering. The straight hem hits just below the waistline and is completed with felled seams, bartack reinforcements, and double and single-needle construction throughout. The Milk Twill Solomon Military Overshirt 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.
