Provenance
Fibre-Fabric
This garment is made from linen, a natural fibre harvested from the flax plant. It's a highly desirable fibre for tailoring because if its excellent moisture-wicking properties, keeping you cool and comfortable in warm weather. Linen is also lightweight and has a natural texture that adds a relaxed and casual elegance to garments. It drapes well, creating a flattering, relaxed silhouette. Additionally, linen is known for its durability, making it perfect for frequent wear and resistant to tearing or pilling.
Performance
Construction
While the term might sound like a misnomer, M.J. Bale's 'decon' technique, used in the construction of some of our jackets, is actually what it says it is: a method of tailoring to construct a garment in the most unstructured, soft and lightweight way possible.
It is a sartorial technique commonly associated with Neapolitan tailoring. It means the jackets are crafted with minimal padding and internal construction, allowing the fabric to drape naturally over the body. This creates a softer, more fluid silhouette that follows the contours of the wearer without excessive stiffness or structure.
With Australia's spring-summer climate mostly mirroring that of Mediterranean summers, the decon technique also helps Australian men stay cool and unflustered while being sartorially stylish.
