Marco Pescarolo Quarantuno Zip Jacket Navy

The Quarantuno in navy: a zip jacket with a point collar and a two-way zip on a clean, uncluttered front. Its name is Italian for forty-one, and it is one of the official topwear models in the Marco Pescarolo collection, a smart alternative to a blazer.

It is made from 99% virgin wool with 1% elastane, the same cloth as the Dieci trousers in navy, so the two can be worn together as a modern, unstructured suit. Marco Pescarolo, part of the Kiton family, makes it in Italy and sources most of its cloth from Biella.

The jacket has a clean zip-jacket shape that layers easily over a fine knit or a shirt, and the touch of elastane gives it comfortable movement. Wear it with the matching Dieci and a white shirt for the office, or with grey trousers and a grey crewneck, and black or dark brown shoes.
