The 'A' Wrap Coat - Brown Cavalry Twill
The 'A' Wrap Coat - Brown Cavalry Twill
100% wool
A flowy and free form bathrobe-like wrap coat that combines a highly durable cloth, drapes gracefully, feels substantial yet agile, expressing a unique flair and drama with the sensibility of casual elegance.
This design is a Balmacaan style, raglan-sleeved, A-line, over-the-knee coat. It features a loose fit, dropped shoulders and a hidden placket that evokes the warm despite relaxed construction of a bathrobe, retaining an overall simplicity and minimality of design. With the inclusion of a belt and exclusion of a vent, once strapped around the waist, it adds shape to its voluminous silhouette, lending the whole affair a generous form, creating what we describe as 'drama'.
The material diverges from the typical shell or gabardine jacket, the usual raincoat type of material. Specially woven for us in a 25/26oz (700gm) British wool cavalry twill that highlights a visually enticing dual-twill feature, the dense weaving construction of the cloth is also naturally hard-wearing whilst water-repellent with no need for artificial coating. Matte and designed in a cool-tone brown, perfect for winter layering with a wide range of colours.
