Italian performance, without compromise
Our co-founder Benoît wanted to share his passion for techwear within a more tailored style. To do so, he sourced this unique Italian technical fabric for you, combining
- 58% wool, for the natural beauty of its drape, as well as its thermoregulating and odor-resistant properties,
- 38% high performance Cordura®, for exceptional strength and durability. Created in 1966 by the American company Cordura®, this ultra-resistant nylon fiber was originally used in military gear before making its way into urban wardrobes. More precisely, the Cordura® used here is made from nylon 6,6, which offers greater durability than the more commonly used nylon 6. As a result, this fabric scores 50,000 cycles on the Martindale abrasion test—four times more than a classic woolen dress fabric,
- 4% elasthane, for complete freedom of movement.
Visually, this technical jacket flies under the radar: the fabric is matte, and the feel remains natural thanks to the wool. And because we always prioritize texture, its ripstop weave adds a subtle grid-like pattern that brings a discreet charm to your outfits.
Finally, this fabric is virtually wrinkle-resistant: it maintains its elegant drape throughout the day and keeps its shape—even after traveling with you in a suitcase.
This technical feat is the result of the expertise of Italian supplier Marlane, based in the Biella region. Marlane specializes in creating fabrics that are not only elegant, but also functional and comfortable.
