Each jacket is built from a high performance material made by an Italian mill specialising in technical, high-stretch fabrics for athletes. Engineered with four way stretch, it behaves more like a running jacket than a suit, letting you reach, pull, and turn, in any direction with zero resistance.

The jacket’s lining is treated with a zinc-based antimicrobial treatment to fight odour molecules created by sweat. When zinc comes into contact with a microbe like bacteria, it releases ions to break down the microbe’s membrane before wiping it out. As it’s the build-up of bacteria on clothes that causes them to smell, the zinc keeps the jacket fresher for longer by stopping microbes multiplying.

Both the sleeves and upper body are lined on the inside with a silk-like material called cupro. It’s made by Brunello, a northern Italian fabric mill that’s been dedicated to making the world’s finest linings since 1927. The cupro is produced from regenerated cotton waste and feels extremely smooth and cooling next to your skin. And we’ve added an inverted pleat into the lining, to make it even easier for it to move with the stretchy outer material.

It’s not just the high-stretch material that makes the jacket so comfortable and adaptable, but the way we’ve constructed it too. It’s a soft tailored jacket, which means unlike more traditional suit jackets we’ve not built in any padding at the shoulders or in other areas. This unstructured shape makes the jacket understated and easy to wear anywhere.

The jacket’s unstructured shape and low weight make it super easy to fold and pack down into a travel bag. At the other end of the journey you can simply pull it out the bag, shake it out and throw it on, making it perfect for the times when you need to travel light.

We’ve cut the jacket and pants so that they’re relaxed enough to feel comfortable all day, but smart enough for when you’ve got a dress code to meet. The jacket is fitted but never restricts you, and the pants come with a slight taper towards the bottom of the leg.

Each of the centre buttons is reinforced by a backer button underneath for strength. And all of them are made from bioresin - a natural, non-toxic and water-based material we’ve produced by combining plant and vegetable waste with a polyester resin used by the aerospace industry.
