After Drake’s · Spring/Summer 2024
Stone Wash Denim Games Blazer Mk. IV
The Games blazer Mk. IV belongs to a family of Drake's jackets that sits between proper tailoring and workwear, made to be relaxed, practical and hard-wearing without losing a sense of polish. This version is cut from an enzyme-dyed denim of cotton and hemp, with four flapped patch pockets across the front and slightly wider lapels that recall the 1970s. It has no lining or structure, a soft shoulder and a shorter, fuller cut than the house's tailored jackets, and it is intended for everyday wear, alone or as a suit with matching trousers.

Navy High Twist Cotton Sullivan Jacket
We chose a solid navy cotton twill as the nearest Proper Cloth cloth to the deep indigo of the original, accepting that it is a smooth, high-twist suiting rather than a washed denim with visible fading. We matched the unstructured, uncanvassed build, the unlined body, the notch lapel, the ventless back and the flapped patch pockets. Proper Cloth offers a two-button front rather than a single keyhole button, and we set dark brown horn buttons in place of the tonal buttons on the original.
A 100% cotton twill from the Italian mill Tessuti di Sondrio, woven from high-twist yarns in a medium heavy weight. It is a plain navy with a smooth, clean surface and a slightly open weave that breathes well, and it drapes neatly and resists creasing, suiting spring through autumn.
