Le tissu

The draper
Drago is a renowned Italian mill, celebrated in the tailoring world for the quality of its wool fabrics. Founded in Biella, in the heart of Piedmont, Drago continues a tradition of textile excellence, blending innovation with respect for artisanal know-how. Drago fabrics are prized for their soft hand, clean drape, and durability, making each piece a safe choice for connoisseurs of fine cloth.

The Composition
This jacket is made from 100% wool twill, a fabric valued for its robustness and suppleness. Twill is distinguished by its fine diagonal ribs, created by a specific weave that crosses the warp and weft threads. This structure gives the fabric greater resistance to wear, a fluid drape, and the ability to hold a crease, while remaining comfortable and breathable. Ideal for mid-season, twill offers the perfect balance between structure and lightness.

The Colour & Cut
The cut is inspired by the saharienne, with three flap bellows pockets and an action back—a nod to vintage golf jackets designed for movement without compromising style. The soft, naturally structured Neapolitan shoulder adds a touch of relaxed sophistication, making the jacket suitable for both professional settings and afterwork gatherings. The jacket draws inspiration from the safari jackets of the 60s and 70s, reinterpreted in a more formal version. The semi-canvassed construction, Neapolitan shoulders, and hand-sewn Milanese buttonhole all showcase sartorial expertise. The action back, inherited from golf jackets, ensures optimal comfort and freedom of movement throughout the day.

Options

The Pockets

The Shoulder

The Back
