A Le Corbusier jacket, estimated from the 1950s, French-made.
A special acquisition.
This piece is notable for having been worn by Le Corbusier (Charles-Édouard Jeanneret), the preeminent modernist architect and theorist of the twentieth century.
Originally issued as workwear by state enterprises and government institutions of the period.
Among Le Corbusier jackets, the wool collar variant remains comparatively scarce. The example worn by Le Corbusier himself was likewise a wool collar type, making this a parallel piece.
This navy example offers the versatility many seek. Navy carries an inherent masculinity, amplified here by the double-breasted construction—a garment that distills a particular vision of masculine utility.
A leather jacket of this calibre renders further acquisitions almost unnecessary.
Constructed from sheepskin, the leather remains notably supple and accommodates movement without resistance. Many approach leather jackets with wariness, imagining rigidity and constraint—the Le Corbusier jacket dispels such concerns entirely.
The wool lining provides substantial warmth. Form and function converge without compromise.
Le Corbusier jackets typically run large; this example is notably compact. Small-framed wearers will find uncommon accommodation—a wool collar variant in this size is a rarity.
The jacket bears expected signs of use: minor surface scuffing and patina. The face and lining remain intact, free of tears. There is no damage that impairs wearing. This is an active garment still.
The chin strap remains intact—an element often missing. The collar may be worn raised, permitting variation in presentation.
Should this piece match your search, this presents the opportunity.
