Gold Glitter 2flap Sport Jacket

This jacket is modeled after a style that became a massive hit in the United States from the late 1940s through the late 1950s.

The material is a wool-rayon blend woven with lustrous nylon threads.

It features a unique fabric with embedded glitter, evoking the rockabilly scene of that era.

The jacket shimmers thanks to glitter-infused nylon threads woven in a grid-like check pattern.

Jackets of this type were often referred to as "Gab-Jans" (gabardine jackets) back in the day.

We intentionally kept the design faithful to the originals: a short-length jacket with a zippered front.

While originally created as standard workwear, its casual ease led to its evolution into a "sports jacket" by the late 1940s.

It features a full-opening front zipper, buttoned cuffs, and a hem constructed with elastic tape encased in the matching fabric.

The most distinctive design element is the pair of flap pockets on the chest.

The flaps are attached using a sophisticated sewing technique known as "octopus-leg stitching" (a specialized multi-point reinforcement stitch).

The collar is constructed using the "bag-stitch" method, a hallmark of the era's craftsmanship.

A cord is inserted alongside the front zipper to prevent the fabric from getting caught in the mechanism.

With its simple, timeless design, this versatile jacket adapts to various styles—wear it formally with a tie, or casually over a printed T-shirt for a relaxed, sporty look.
