A black moleskin work jacket, estimated from the 1950s.
The moleskin jacket has become the standard of French workwear today.
As the name suggests, it is said to have been named for its fabric texture, which resembles the skin of a mole.
When you touch it, you will notice a smoothness and fabric weight that belies its cotton composition.
Black moleskin, even rarer than its blue counterpart, has been used generously in this piece. Its versatility makes it sought after by many.
Having served as workwear, its functionality is beyond question.
A generously rounded collar and A-line silhouette—details that remain popular.
Five front buttons.
A printed tag is present inside.
While the distinctive sheen characteristic of moleskin is absent, a beautiful fade from years of wear and use has already developed, giving the piece remarkable presence.
There are no significant damages that would compromise wear, so it can be dressed without concern.
In an uncommon larger size, this piece accommodates those of a bigger frame. Black moleskin jackets of this scale rarely surface, making it particularly rare.
A black moleskin of this size is seldom encountered. If you have been searching for one, this may be the opportunity.
