Wool Flannel Forestiere Jacket 〔NAVY〕

— Super 120’s Wool / Forestière Jacket —

A cantáte interpretation of the Forestière, one of the jackets emblematic of Parisian ARNYS.

While retaining the Forestière’s distinctive collar and pockets, as well as its relaxed presence, we have reworked everything from the materials and construction to the internal structure.

The outer fabric is a twill made from Super 120’s wool.
After weaving, it undergoes repeated fulling and brushing over approximately two months, creating a supple fabric with a plump thickness and richly nuanced appearance.

The interior, too, is not finished entirely with a single lining.
Three fabrics—cotton flannel, cotton-rayon, and a fabric made from raw cotton-silk yarns—are used selectively according to each section and its function.

At the collar and other details, we have placed fine, supple Entrefino lamb suede.
Wool, cotton, silk, and suede—each with its own distinct texture—are layered and tailored to connect naturally within a single garment.

We have also devoted considerable handwork to the construction and finishing that is almost invisible from the outside.
Rather than refining only the completed exterior, we want the reasons behind each construction choice to remain evident when the garment is turned inside out.

Rather than reproducing the Forestière as an established form, this jacket was created by taking its materials and construction apart and reassembling them as a cantáte garment.
