Ventile 2 in 1 Jacket

We can make this jacket to any length, but it's 'natural' length is like one of those traditional flying jackets. Shorter than a regular coat, a bit longer than a blouson bomber or a denim jacket. Back length from the collar seam being 32" (79cm)

The Jacket can be worn in one of two ways. When not too cold, but still having a need for something in wet weather, it can be worn as a single layer/unlined  Ventile jacket. When it turns cold, it becomes an excellent winter weather piece, by simply buttoning in the secondary Ventile layer, which is also padded with the luxurious Primaloft Gold 'down touch' insulation. This button in/out liner can be made either as a gilet/waistcoat, or as a liner with sleeves. As you prefer. Some customers prefer just the warmth of the gilet padding around the body, without the sleeves looking padded, other customers like the whole shebang! Similarly the detachable hood can be made with or without padding.

Additionally, it has a good quality chunky 2 way brass zip and lovely Corozo buttons to keep the lining and hood in place.The design of this jacket was a collaboration with one of our customers after he made some good suggestions to improve an existing style. The pattern was made here, in-house, it was cut in house and made in house. That's what we mean when we say 'made in England' we mean made by us and not someone else's 3rd party factory. One machinist makes one jacket. No production line. Because of their skills, they all earn a good wage and not a production line piece rate wage.
