Reda of Italy is a fabric mill that we frequently use for modern, high-performance materials. This dog tooth is just such a design. By blending 58% linen with 42% wool, they not only make the jacket feel softer, but much more crease resistant. Personally, I've always liked that continental look of a scrunched up old linen jacket, but I do understand its not for everyone and here's the alternative. We've cut it on our Kaplan block for a casual feel with patch pockets and half lined. There's pattern trim detail inside and under the collar and this is crying out for good chinos and a crisp shirt. There's even a built-in, pull up pocket square for a splash of colour.
