$250 CONUS
A great blue and white nailhead jacket by Epaulet. Lightweight cotton/silk and half lined with a crimson lining. Price cut as the warm weather season is nearly done.
I had hoped this would fit like the Samuelson Jackets that Epaulet had, but unfortunately was a bit big.
Epaulet Description:
"The Epaulet Marcello jacket is our rendition of a Neapolitan style unstructured sport coat. It features minimal shoulder padding, partial canvassing and a quarter lining. Together, these features allow the jacket to sit flush against the body without being restrictive, so it can be worn all day, in almost any circumstance, like a second skin.
In keeping with the Neapolitan tradition, the Marcello jacket has smaller armholes, close shoulders, a lean fit throughout the body and accommodating sleeves, allowing an exceptional free range of movement without an oversized fit. Its final and perhaps most distinguishing design feature is its sloped, soft shoulder. The gentle curvature of this style is perfect for casual situations, but shouldn’t bar you from any more dressed-up ones. A bit less formal, but no less dapper, you’ll never have to think twice about the Epaulet Marcello jacket, either when entering the office or heading out to a bar.
The relative lack of construction provides superior breathability and added mobility, making it exceptionally well suited for warmer weather.
This particular model is made up in a dynamic light-blue nailhead pattern. Made of 70% cotton and 30% silk, this is an ideal jacket for when you don’t want to sacrifice your sport coat wearing to the intense heat. The brighter tone harmonizes nicely with the warm weather, while the dappled pattern keeps things looking cool and casual."
