Grey wool flannel jacket with houndstooth pattern

Grey wool flannel jacket with houndstooth pattern made of 120's wool by the Italian textile manufacturer Vitale Barberis Canonico. This sports coat has been fabricated by a family owned workshop in Portugal:  soft flannel, half-canvas construction and particular workmanship.

When speaking of the construction of a suit jacket you might hear the terms "full-canvas", "half-canvas" or "fused". This is referring to the "canvas interlining", the part between the outer fabric and the lining. Made of horsehair, the interlining on a full-canvas construction covers the whole front and back of a coat, whereas fused is simply glued. Our sports coats are in a half-canvas construction, meaning the upper part of the jacket is interlined with horsehair and the lower part is glued. This gives structure and allows the fabric to move with your body. The slim fit and light padding create a naturally elegant silhouette, making this your new favourite everyday jacket!
