Although technically a vintage piece (1970s), this handsome shirt jacket, or "shacket", is right on trend for the present day. It is designed to have an oversized appearance with dropped shoulders. The jacket/shacket is a dark blue double-faced wool twill with a grayish undertone. It has a shirt collar, two buttoned flap pockets on the chest, two buttoned slash pockets at the hips, eight-inch slits at the bottom of each side seam, and no cuffs, so the sleeves can be turned back to your preferred length. On the inside of the jacket, you'll find folded and hand-sewn French seams. Even the sleeves are double-faced, so this jacket provides a genuine element of warmth, even though it's not a heavy coat. I believe I can make out that the jacket is French size 38, which is considered equivalent to a US size 6. Measurements and sizing charts indicate that this shacket falls in the Medium to Large range, depending on how oversized you want the fit to be. Please refer to the measurements for the best guidance regarding actual size.*MEASUREMENTS
- Dropped shoulder width is 21"
- Chest is 43"
- Waist is 43"
- Hips measure 43"
- Sleeve length is 19.25 (dropped shoulders provide additional sleeve length)
- Length is 32" down center back excluding collar.CONDITION
Very good vintage condition with no structural issues or stains. I did see a couple of tiny pinholes in one of the sleeves, but the lining is the same material as the shell, so they don't show.Please do not rely only on the size label or estimated size to
determine fit. For the best chance of a proper fit, compare the actual
measurements with those of a similar garment that fits you.*Approximate measurements taken on exterior of garments unless otherwise noted. Stretchy fabrics and knits are fully relaxed when measured. Photos that appear in this listing are an integral part of the description. Because different monitors display colors differently, actual color might vary somewhat from the color on your monitor.
