Matka cloth is a super-special fabric woven from broken silkworm cocoons. When the silkworms emerge, they leave behind nubby, slubby silk fibers, which are then spun into a coarse yarn with a slight luster and the most amazing texture. This particular matka comes from Italy and combines silk, linen, and cotton — an all-star trio of natural fibers — for a cloth that is lightweight, durable, breathable, and incredibly beautiful. It makes a great warm-weather jacket. The No. 2 make is fully canvassed with a lightweight, single-layer canvas that'll mold and meld to your body (in a sportier, easier way than our more structured Nos. 3, 4, or 5,) with pickstitched, spalla camicia shirtsleeve construction. And our Kincaid model has a natural shoulder, a 2-button front, and a shorter, darted body with a little tracing for a fit that's slimmish but never skinny. Style-wise, it leans a little more Italian than the Virgil or the Landry. But just like all of our tailored clothing, it's designed to take you from Mississippi to Manhattan to Milan without looking or feeling out of place.

We organize our tailored clothing into different levels of makes, similar to the way some German automakers have different series of cars.
Our sportiest, most casual make — unconstructed, with no canvas at all. The knockaround.
Our “easy” make, refined yet relaxed, with a lightweight, single-layer canvas. The basic.
Our “house” make and the one that started it all, with a structured, 3-layer canvas. The workhorse.
Our sarto make, with more handwork and a more natural, lightweight-yet-dense 2-layer canvas. The upgrade.
True sarto, with the same canvas as the No. 4, but completely handmade. The top of the line.
