A French hunting jacket in green cotton, estimated from the 1950s.
A special arrival. Moreover, deadstock.
The hunting jacket is a classic item of French workwear.
It is said that during that era, it was favored by the upper classes as a sport or leisure pursuit.
Rarely made as workwear, these pieces existed only for sport and leisure, worn by a select few. This scarcity meant that brands did not mass-produce them; rather, each jacket was made to order, rendering this a luxurious singular piece.
When one thinks of a French hunting jacket, cotton piqué or corduroy fabrics typically come to mind. This example, however, is made from a rare green cotton.
The green here is not a deep shade, but rather a fresh mint green, one that elevates what might otherwise be earthy styling into something refined and distinguished.
It further distinguishes itself with a chin strap at the collar—a rare feature indeed.
Such pieces are seldom encountered, even in dedicated search.
It carries the hallmarks of French design: a generously rounded collar, chin strap, horn buttons, and an A-line silhouette—details that have earned their place in the pantheon of vintage hunting wear.
Being a hunting jacket, it is equipped with a substantial game pocket at the rear for carrying game.
The interior bears a double-label print tag.
The sizing runs generous, accommodating larger frames without constraint.
Few examples possess this voluminous ease of fit.
The condition, being deadstock, is beyond reproach—recommended for those seeking an item in pristine state.
A green hunting jacket is a rarity among its peers. Should you have sought such a piece, this represents an opportunity not lightly to be dismissed.
