After Drake’s · Autumn/Winter 2024
Navy Wool Flannel Tailored Jacket
A single-breasted navy flannel jacket from Drake's tailoring line, cut closer to the body than the house's softer Games jackets. It is made in Italy without a body lining and with a half canvas, so it keeps some structure while staying light. Patch pockets and a soft, natural shoulder give it a relaxed character, and it is meant to be worn as an odd jacket with trousers in other cloths.

Reda Navy Italian Wool Flannel
We chose a solid navy brushed wool flannel from Reda because it is the closest match in fibre, colour and surface to the Drake's cloth. We set the main details to match: a two-button front with notch lapels, half-canvas construction, an unlined body, patch pockets and dark brown horn buttons. The Reda cloth is a medium-weight twill at 290 g, heavier than the Drake's lightweight flannel, and the sleeve buttons work rather than being a sham. We added side vents.
A brushed merino wool flannel woven by Reda in Italy, a twill of about 290 g with a soft, slightly fuzzy hand. The navy is a little lighter than a classic dark navy and is mottled with paler tones. It suits autumn and winter wear.
