In a nutshell,

The carcoat is a short coat designed to offer great freedom of movement while providing effective protection from the elements.

A timeless piece

The composition

This carcoat is made from a Loro Piana technical fabric, 100% wool enriched with a Storm System® membrane. With a weight of 230 g/m guaranteeing lightness, resistance and performance.

The Storm System® membrane offers effective protection against wind and moisture, while retaining the natural properties of wool: breathability, thermoregulation and comfort. As a result, this coat is perfectly suited to changing weather conditions, particularly in urban environments.

The cut

The carcoat is distinguished by its short, straight cut, designed to facilitate movement, whether driving or walking in an urban environment. The slightly structured collar and tailored sleeves ensure a clean, modern silhouette. Historically, this cut was popularized by British motorists in the early XXᵉ century, who were looking for a coat that protected the upper body while remaining comfortable. Today, this cut remains a symbol of urban elegance and versatility, suitable for all styles, from formal to casual.

The color

Black is a timeless color, a symbol of elegance and modernity. Versatile par excellence, it is equally at home in a formal or casual wardrobe. The black carcoat never goes out of fashion and can easily be combined with your entire wardrobe, providing a structured, refined look in any circumstance.

Details that make all the difference

The closure

This carcoat features a waterproof zipper, complemented by hidden snaps. This double closure ensures optimum protection against the elements, while preserving a clean, minimalist look. An aesthetic and functional choice for everyday use.

The lining

Fully lined, this coat features a tone-on-tone stretch lining for enhanced comfort and freedom of movement. This lining naturally follows the body’s movements, making the carcoat as comfortable to wear as it is practical, even on long days.

Pockets

The angled pockets add a contemporary touch to the design of the carcoat, while remaining functional. Their position facilitates access and reinforces the dynamic aspect of the silhouette, while maintaining a discreet elegance.
