Estimated 1960s, a black moleskin work jacket.
The moleskin jacket has become the standard of French workwear today.
As the name suggests, it is said to derive from the mole-like texture of the fabric.
Once you touch it, you will understand—the surface possesses a smoothness and weight that belie its cotton composition.
Black moleskin, rarer still than its blue counterpart, has been employed generously in this single piece. Many seek it for its versatility.
Having served as workwear, its functionality is beyond question.
It features a generously rounded collar and an A-line silhouette—details much coveted.
Five front buttons.
A printed tag is present inside.
The characteristic lustre of moleskin has faded, yet the patina acquired through years and wear creates an atmosphere of undeniable character.
There are no significant damages that would impair wearability.
The sizing runs small, suitable for those of slight build.
Black moleskin has become scarce even in France, and sourcing has grown increasingly difficult. If you have been searching for such a piece, this may warrant consideration.
