After Drake’s · Spring/Summer 2025
Navy Linen Games Blazer Mk. III
The Mk. III is the double-breasted member of Drake's Games series, the house's line of relaxed tailoring. It joins the formal six-button blazer to the practical outlook of a work jacket, cut slightly shorter and fuller than Drake's conventional tailoring and built without lining or structure. Made in Italy from a custom-dyed navy linen with mother of pearl buttons, it is intended for everyday wear across a wide range of weather and settings.

Spence Bryson Faded Navy Irish Linen Waverly Jacket
We chose a solid navy Irish linen from Spence Bryson, a plain-weave pure linen in a washed, faded navy, to match the colour and dry texture of the original. We set a six-button double-breasted front with peak lapels, an unlined and uncanvassed build, patch pockets, a ventless back and mother of pearl buttons to follow Drake's details. Proper Cloth's cloth is heavier than Drake's 8.1oz linen, and its traveller interior pockets stand in for Drake's buttoned passport pockets; the integrated ticket pocket is not specified in the design as made.
A pure linen woven in plain weave by Spence Bryson, a firm that has made linen in Ireland since the eighteenth century. It is a washed cloth of about 400 g, solid in a softened, faded navy, with enough body to keep its shape without canvas. It softens with wear and settles into loose folds rather than sharp creases.
