Virgil No. 4 Jacket Blue/Navy/Brown Glen Plaid Brushed Sharkskin
A quintessentially fall jacket made of a rich brushed sharkskin. Wait, a sharkskin? You’d never know it — the level of brush and touch causes it to register as more of a flannel — but this cloth comes from Italy and is, in fact, a sharkskin weave. Fabric surprises aside, we love the richness of the Glen plaid. Super autumnal. This jacket is in our No. 4 make — almost fully handmade — which means more time passing through our Neapolitan tailors' hands. In fact, each piece requires a full ten hours’ worth of tailoring before it leaves the workshop. The shoulder, lining, darts, buttonholes, buttons, and several other elements are sewn by hand, and you can feel it when you put it on. It’s almost like the seams move with you. It's made up in our Virgil model, which 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.
