From Visvim's Fall/Winter 2020 Collection comes the Deckhand Albacore in Khaki. Taking inspiration by the 1940s naval N-1 Deck jacket, the Deckhand features an oversized fit with a drop shoulder silhouette, a dual button/zip closure, two slanted welt front pockets, hidden ribbed cuffs, and an interior zip chest pocket.
The jacket is constructed using a German Cords fabric shell made from specially processed cotton. The fabric is woven from weft yarn with a special twisting process, this strong and flexible fabric is originally produced on German high-density looms and was used for military purposes for its characteristics. The lining is made from a wool/alpaca blend fabric that has an incredible dry texture throughout. Once constructed, the jacket was damaged processed resulting in an authentic vintage character throughout.
Additional details include original vegetable ivory nut buttons, Swiss RIRI zippers throughout, vegetable tanned leather neck closure, and wool/linen blend striped Cevian -Ori fabric elbow inserts. Cevian-ori is a 50 year old original Japanese paper cloth made by manually weaving thinly split weft yarns of Kurotani Washi paper as a thread into a fabric. This creates a fabric with incredible texture and high durability.
Tagged size 4 and fits a TTS XL. Please refer to measurements for best fit. Condition is 9.5/10; very minimal signs of wear throughout.
