Description

The American Vector Bomber by MotivMfg x Division Road is designed to bridge vintage military jackets and modern tailoring. This outerwear garment is derived from a WWII Tanker Jacket that takes fit and detailing from aviator styles, recreated as a cleanly designed, fully insulated wool batten bomber in an anatomically tailored fit. A complicated articulated raglan sleeve with integrated diamond-shaped shoulder patches for reinforcement is combined with a pleated back shoulder to allow for movement in a design-centric approach to a cut perfectly balanced between vintage and contemporary. This jacket is made from a 15 oz. Lovat Mill® Covert Cloth that uses the finest 100% Worsted Lambswool for a suiting grade fabric engineered for the outdoors while maintaining a sophisticated aesthetic and luxurious finish. Famous for its historic milling processes tied to worsting yarns and cloths, Covert Cloth goes back to the early 1900s as a military-grade stepped twill weave wool designed to endure regimental riding and harsh conditions, providing waterproof outdoor protection for officers and gentlemen alike. Produced by Scotland's renowned Lovat® Mill — established in 1826 as the "Home of Tweed" and focused on true sustainability and traceability through vertical production — this Covert Cloth has a pronounced drape and flexibility with a luxurious, textured finish in a true midnight navy. This American Vector Bomber is designed with a zipped and buttoned storm placket front and articulated ribbed stand collar, hem, and cuffs, allowing for outdoor versatility and functionality with elevated style. Paying homage to the originals with sophisticated finishing, this jacket is fully lined with a brilliant tonal British Lambswool Twill Flannel. It has beautifully diamond-shaped wide-welt hand pockets and two interior snap pockets for comfortable and secure carrying. This piece is packed with superior bespoke and old-world detailing like felled seams, bartack reinforcements throughout, and custom cast and burnished gunmetal buttons. MotivMfg has re-established a pattern-to-bespoke garment one-roof workshop in Beijing with the ethos, process, techniques, and materials of Savile Row to produce historically informed garments in styles and production methods lost by the West. We are honored to partner with MotivMfg to offer exclusive collaborations for a new and timeless uniform for the Division Road Army.

Sizing

Model Measurements: 6'1" | 170 lbs. | 41" Chest | 32" Waist - Wearing Size 50(L)

MotivMfg runs typical of traditional tailoring, and we suggest sizing to your measured chest (+8-10" per Italian Sizing) or taking your more common Alpha size. MotivMfg is graded in smaller increments—if between sizes, you can size these garments depending on primary layering intention and style preferences.

All of our MotivMfg offerings are exclusive to Division Road, and by default, we make standard adjustments to the pattern and body to make the fit relatable. Our Sizing Guide provides garment-specific measurements taken in-house, per Our Method, that are not duplicated across fabric or colorways and are re-measured each production run.
