Sid Mashburn
Virgil No. 3 Jacket Chocolate/Oat Houndstooth Hopsack
If you've run into Sid in warmer months, you've likely seen him in a jacket like this — there's almost nothing we love more than a houndstooth. This one is woven in Italy from a blend of linen and what we call "rustic silk," which gives the fabric a dry, crunchy hand with lots of character. The slubby yarns bring texture while the silk adds a soft sheen. (We love the fabric so much we used it for a matching pair of trousers, so you can wear both pieces together as a full suit.) The No. 3 jacket make has full canvas construction—the sine qua non of tailoring—with a special, structured three-layer canvas that’ll mold and meld to your body over time. And our Virgil model has a natural shoulder, a 3-roll-2 lapel, and a shorter body with no front darts at all. Think old-school sack jacket, but sexier. It’s got a slightly more American feel than the Kincaid 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.

What do all the numbers mean?
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.
