This herringbone comes from a centuries-old mill in Yorkshire known for its naturally dyed fabrics. It's a silk-rich blend — we'd call it a "rustic silk" — with a nubby, textured hand that doesn't read slick or precious in the slightest. The herringbone weave almost veers into "non-pattern pattern" territory but the interplay of white and navy yarns gives it a dynamic, dimensional appearance. A truly excellent warm-weather jacket. The No. 3 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.

This jacket comes unfinished, which means it needs to be tailored before you wear it! Specifically, the sleeves are unhemmed, without cut buttonholes, at the time of purchase. Your local tailor can hem them to your perfect length and attach the buttons (we include eight — four for each sleeve — in the pocket of the jacket.) If you’re near one of our stores, our in-house tailors can also take care of this.
