Best The Anthology Wingman Blouson – Terra Cotta

100% Casentino Wool

A hard-wearing design for outing days and frigid weather, this is our take on a short-cutting jacket partially inspired by the historical flight jacket, with juxtapositions of spaciousness and form-fitting illusions through edgy pattern-cutting, forming a comprehensively sculpted form with hints of softness within. Full article about the design here.

Cut straight on the body with a naturally cinched elasticated waistband and sleeve opening, the sprucely gathered puckers give contrasted shaping yet maintain a clean, but not stoic look. The four-pocket arrangement added extra points of interest to the garment. Diagonally and reversely paneled forming a strong X-shaped profile, the sartorial-minded design is heightened by a touch of edginess, looking exceptionally spiffy even as a casual outdoor blouson. Slanted ‘warmer’ pockets around the upper waist are shielded by an additional layer, with zippers guarding both sides of the chest. All pockets are designed with better security, all thoughtfully angled and concealed to avoid one’s personal belongings from falling out.

The blouson is finished with a silver two-way zipper. When zipped up, the body forms a subtle balloon effect like a classic bomber, giving volume to express a masculine look. By releasing the lower zipper, it complements our usual mid-high-rise trousers, achieving that sleek sartorial, tailored look, and creating a distinctive high-low aesthetic.

Fabric is Tuscany’s renowned historical Casentino cloth, enriched with umpteen bobbly, wadded textures, mimicking a fleece jacket in the modern context but more durable and refined. It also has excellent thermal insulation, perfect for outdoor use.

Pair this with:

Pique long-sleeve polo in any colors, such as steel grey, navy, or chocolate brown, Raw Chambray Workman shirts in vanilla or indigo. For Trousers, we highly recommend Civilman Trousers, or dress trousers in brown, olive, and white/vanilla.

Also available in Turquoise.
