John Simons first purchased a traditional American Sack Jacket in 1958, whilst working at Cecil Gee on Charing Cross Road. He recalls the purchase fondly, citing the transaction as more than a simple fashion statement, rather, it provided a magic route to the Bebop revolution, which was far cheaper than the cost of a plane ticket.
The ‘Made in England’ Ivy Jacket is our interpretation of the famous Brooks Brothers 346 Jacket which has two patch and flap side pockets and an out breast welt pocket on the chest. Tailored with a natural shoulder, it offers a relaxed, clean silhouette that retains a sharp, unstructured look. The 3-button roll to 2 feature adds a versatile, timeless appeal, giving you the option of a more formal or casually refined appearance depending on your mood.
