Circa 1950s, a French Army M35 motorcycle coat.
A rare cotton-linen variant has arrived. Moreover, this is deadstock.
While the linen content may not be substantial, the characteristic nub of linen is evident, and the fabric possesses a somewhat softer quality compared to cotton canvas.
This piece is said to have been adopted by the French Army motorcycle units from 1935 onward.
The A-line silhouette that widens toward the hem is elegant, and its visual authority rivals contemporary pieces—an undeniable appeal.
With raglan sleeves, even when worn oversized, the shoulders allow for a natural drape, ensuring a seamless fit.
A chin strap is present, permitting the collar to be raised, which provides reassurance during colder seasons.
The proportions strike what might be called a golden size, accommodating a wide range of physiques.
The condition, being deadstock, is exemplary. Recommended both for those seeking a pristine example and for those who wish to cultivate patina under their own stewardship.
Numbers diminish with each passing year, and a rise in market value is merely a matter of time. For those in pursuit, this represents an opportune moment.
