Lardini Easy Wear Travel Jacket Brown

A brown jacket in a textured cloth, from Lardini's Easy Wear line. It looks like classic tailoring, with a two-button front, patch pockets and the signature flower at the lapel, but it is designed for life on the move.

Lardini introduced Easy Wear for spring/summer 2017 as travel tailoring: water-repellent and crease-proof, so it can be packed in a suitcase and worn on arrival without ironing, while staying light and breathable. The first Easy Wear piece was a travel suit that packed into a small zip bag, and the line keeps the house's classic tailoring and woollen flower. Lardini is still run by the family that founded it.

The jacket follows the Drop 7 Reg pattern, with a slim, shaped waist and a modern line. It is the jacket for business trips and weekends away: wear it with grey or navy trousers and a white shirt for meetings, or with dark denim and a knit polo at dinner.
