Fabric

A vegetal product of the flax plant, linen fabric is characterised by it's 'slubby' texture. It allows air to circulate and heat to dissipate, keeping you cool and comfortable in warm weather. It is also extremely strong, capable of withstanding regular wear and tear. Cotton, on the other hand, provides softness and comfort. Cotton fibres are smooth, breathable and have superior durability, retaining their shape and colour after multiple washes. When woven together, linen and cotton become the yin to the other's yang. The blend balances the lightweight and airy qualities of linen with the softness and versatility of cotton. Linen also strengthens the fabric, while cotton enhances its longevity.

Construction

While the term might sound like a misnomer, M.J. Bale's 'decon' technique, used in the construction of some of our jackets, is actually what it says it is: a method of tailoring to construct a garment in the most unstructured, soft and lightweight way possible. It is a sartorial technique commonly associated with Neapolitan tailoring. It means the jackets are crafted with minimal padding and internal construction, allowing the fabric to drape naturally over the body. This creates a softer, more fluid silhouette that follows the contours of the wearer without excessive stiffness or structure. With Australia's spring-summer climate mostly mirroring that of Mediterranean summers, the decon technique also helps Australian men stay cool and unflustered while being sartorially stylish.
