Description

Half shirt, half (lightweight) jacket made from 100% Cotton, this ultimate layering piece harkens back to the 1950s and 60s with heavier weight sports shirt jackets. Originally particularly popular in Canada and US where the temperature could plummet, there was both a need and desire for a warmer heavier weight shirt jacket that gave both warmth without compromising the ease of movement. Viyella became the must have and king of sports shirts in the 1950s & 1960s. Unlike most jackets at the time, Viyella shirt jackets did not include a lining, giving that new ease of movement for the modern man of the 1950s. The Original shirt jacket was important for use in sporting activities, initially for popular sports such as golf and skiing and in more vibrant bold colourations, and later in hunting, shooting and fishing in more muted plaids and tartans.

Styling is based on the original 1950’s & 60’s Viyella sports shirt jacket. Soft collar and unconstructed styling to give ease of movement , round cuff one button, with short gauntlet x2 front pocket with mitre flap detail, buttoned through generous size the intimate layering piece.
