ALD / Drake's Single Breasted Wool Fresco Suit Jacket
This single-breasted jacket comes from the ALD and Drake's collaboration. It is a lightweight suit jacket in rust brown fresco wool, made in Italy. It has half-canvas construction, a soft natural shoulder and an unlined body, so it keeps its shape but stays light and loose for warm weather. It comes with matching trousers as a suit, and its patch pockets and soft make also let it be worn on its own as a more relaxed jacket.

Drago Tobacco S130s Tropical Wool Suit
We chose a solid tobacco tropical wool from Drago because it is the closest match in colour and is open-woven for warm weather, though it is a plain tropical weave rather than a true fresco. We matched the construction as closely as Proper Cloth allows: soft half-canvas, an unlined body, a two-button notch lapel, patch pockets, dark brown horn buttons and four buttons at the cuff. Proper Cloth's sleeve buttons are working kissing buttons, so we took those in place of the original's sham cuff. The finished design has no ticket pocket.
A plain-weave tropical cloth in Super 130s merino from Drago, a family-owned mill in Biella, Italy. It weighs about 220 grams. It is smooth and light, with an open weave that breathes and resists creasing, in a solid tobacco brown with a slight variation in tone.
