Different from single jackets! Introducing the features of double jackets

Characteristics of double jackets (1) “The V-zone is shallower than that of single jackets.

When the front is closed, the V-zone is naturally shallower than that of a single jacket, which is one of the features of the double-breasted jacket; a shallow V-zone reduces the exposed area of the tied-up shirt, making it easy to balance even a strong item such as a striped pattern. Also, since the eye is drawn upward, the jacket can be expected to cover the body around the waist.

Characteristic of double-breasted jackets (2): “The larger the area of the matching jacket, the more dignified the look will be!

Compared to single-breasted jackets, double-breasted jackets are unique in that they use more fabric to increase the area of the jacket’s joints, giving it a more dignified impression. This is an item you should definitely consider when you want to create a dandy atmosphere with a simple appearance that does not incorporate any patterns.

Characteristic of the double jacket (3) ” Compatibility with classic trends

With classic details such as pleated pants and wide lapels attracting attention these days, the double-breasted jacket, with its many wide lapel designs and classical atmosphere, is a strong choice. Italian tailor brands as well as collection brands are offering many double tailored jackets with wide lapels.
