Navy Twill Wool Blob Jacket

DESCRIPTION 
Blob Jacket is a relaxed tailored jacket designed with a 3 piece raglan sleeve that softly sculpts the arms and shoulders to exaggerate the natural curvature of a relaxed human form. The outside detailing is minimal, with all pockets kept internal (two breast pockets) The edges of the jacket are left raw, finished with stitch detailing that is internally trimmed with hand made trim that faces the edges to reinforce the raw cut edge. This gives the edges their sharpness but also encourages the wearer to embrace the imperfections and impermanence of the garment. The Japanese philosophical ideologies such as Yūgen, Wabi and Sabi have been interlaced with the western principles of tailored cloth designed to emulate a form, some form, any form. Most likely the human form. 

TEXTILES
All textiles in this style have been sourced from designer dead-stock supplier Wall Fabrics. This supplier is not only local, their practice is ethical and ensures that textiles that would have been sent to landfill are saved. 

This Navy Twill-weave coating fabric is woven in Japan and it consists of 100% wool fibres. This deep navy coloured textile is woven in a twill weave using multiple colours to acheive a rich, deep coloured navy. The garment has been finished internally with 100% silk habotai lining. 

SIZING
Calum and Rose wear size Small - Rose wears the cropped length whilst Calum wears regular length. The difference between the cropped and regular length is approximately 6 cm throughout the length of the body. Notably the armhole depth allows for a closer fitting in the cropped length. The fit of the jacket through the chest is loose and rounded, tailored with many bodies in mind. This Jacket is currently made to order, if you wish to have a special fitting created for you please get in touch with The System to make this arrangement
