A INVERTERE 'Crazy Pattern Cotton Coat' from around the 1990s.
A special arrival.
INVERTERE is an established British coat brand founded in 1904.
It holds the distinction of developing the world's first reversible coat, a technique considered revolutionary at the time.
The name INVERTERE derives from Latin, meaning 'to turn around,' reflecting the reversible coat that defines the house.
While INVERTERE has experienced renewed popularity through modern revivals, the brand did face bankruptcy and temporarily disappeared from the market. For those who appreciate authenticity, an original INVERTERE from that era is worth seeking out.
This piece is a straightforward coat in 100% cotton.
Woven with considerable density, the cotton possesses a refined hand and settles against the skin with natural ease. The fabric evokes the character of Ventile cloth.
A notable quality at every level.
The presence of a chin strap is worth noting.
The difference between a coat with and without a chin strap is considerable.
When worn with the collar raised, the presence of that strap transforms the entire presence.
The front closure employs a concealed fly with both zipper and button fastening.
The zip slider is fitted with a riri mechanism.
Notably scarce among INVERTERE pieces, this example carries the original tag from the 1990s, distinct from contemporary iterations.
The green, yellow and red palette is quintessentially INVERTERE, a graphic tag that speaks directly to those drawn to vintage.
Many collectors actively search for this particular tag.
The colourway of this crazy pattern is, to our knowledge, rarely encountered.
Drawing from the green, yellow and red palette seen on original INVERTERE tags,it has been applied with considered restraint.
For those seeking a piece with character and individuality, this coat warrants consideration.
The sizing runs generous, accommodating a range of builds comfortably.
Worn loosely, it possesses an undeniable ease.
The coat is in good condition, free from notable soiling or damage.
No significant wear compromises its wearability, and it remains a fully functional garment.
INVERTERE is renowned globally for its duffle coats of the highest order.
A coat bearing the INVERTERE name carries with it fabric and construction of the first rank.
Vintage INVERTERE pieces rarely enter circulation. This is a coat of genuine consequence.
Those in search should consider this opportunity carefully.
