Informal Jacket: the relaxed alternative

Last week we looked at the jacket in all its versatile combinations . Today we show how informal jackets make the look even more relaxed.

As a hybrid between a suit jacket, worker jacket and overshirt, the informal jacket combines lightness and elegance. With its loose, unlined structure and soft shoulders, it is a more relaxed alternative to the jacket. Less structured and pleasantly light, it offers freedom of movement for everyday life and business. Its materials - from wool to cotton blends to linen - adapt to every season.

This jacket is the perfect companion for smart combinations: with wool trousers it looks classically elegant, with chinos or jeans it looks relaxed. Subtle details such as natural buttons and casual patterns such as glen check or gingham round off the look and make the Informal Jacket the ideal choice for sophisticated casual and business looks.

PS: All the looks shown are made individually for you – from the informal jacket and trousers in every imaginable fabric to sneakers according to your wishes.
