English Hunt Work Jacket - Smoke Blue Overdyed B.Moss Moleskin

Description

The English Hunt Work Jacket by MotivMfg x Division Road is designed as a meeting point between tailored and dutiful industrial era blazers used as workwear and countryside hunting jackets. This piece is derived from 1920's sack jacket patterns and re-designed with an anatomically tailored fit with a single back piece folded into shape to provide structure and form, in the same type of durable material that epitomized the originals, to create a cut perfectly balanced between vintage and contemporary. This jacket is made in a heavy duty 14 oz. Smoke Blue Moleskin in 100% ring-spun cotton and garment overdyed in a two stage process using reactive and low water dyes to produce a distressed finish and fabric that will patina and evolve to the shape of the wearer in a resilient fabrication. From England’s signature corduroy and moleskin mill, Brisbane Moss®, this fabric was originally developed for work-wear applications during the British and French Industrial Revolutions and later was adopted for the production of durable and insulating outdoor and countryside garments that possessed a natural comfort with a luxurious feel. This English Hunt Work Jacket is designed with a rolling 5-button front to allow for dress-to-outerwear versatility, function, and style with a cotton/tencel blend twill half-lined body for a structured shape and optimal drape, with Bemberg lined sleeves and a functional button cuff for practical refinement. Paying homage to the originals with sophistication, this jacket has beautifully shaped and utilitarian pocketing like a patch front chest pocket, two front welted patch pockets with flaps that will tuck in for different formats and functions, along with three interior buttoned canvas patch pockets for the tools of your trade. Further, this piece is packed with superior bespoke and old-world detailing like felled seams, zigzag back collar stitching, bartack reinforcements throughout, and genuine ebony horn buttons that have been sanded for a unique vintage matte finish. 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 completely exclusive collaborations for a new and timeless uniform for the Division Road Army.
