Canali Denim Blue & Ecru Wool & Silk Gingham Check Jacket
Discover the Canali Denim Blue and Ecru Wool, Silk and Linen Gingham Check Jacket, a summer jacket with one detail that makes it genuinely singular. The denim blue and ecru gingham in wool, silk and linen is a cloth of considerable warmth and character, the offwhite ground giving the check a freshness and lightness that a white or darker base would not produce in the same way, the three-fibre composition delivering the softness and drape of silk, the breathability of linen and the recovery of wool in a single cloth calibrated precisely for the warmer months. The gingham reads as relaxed and confident, working across smart casual and tailored combinations with the versatility that a well-chosen check always provides. The detail that makes this jacket unlike anything else is the stitching that follows the shape of the lapel in a subtle royal blue thread, a single continuous line that traces the lapel's contour in a manner that references the doppio impuntura tradition while arriving at something entirely its own, the blue thread connecting the stitching to the check's ground colour with a coherence that feels inevitable rather than decorative. Notch lapels, patch pockets, a two-button closure and light brown horn buttons engraved with the Canali C complete a jacket that wears its most distinctive detail with complete understatement. Canali has been making suits and jackets in Milan since 1934 with the consistent intelligence of a house that understands cloth and construction without needing to overclaim either. A steel blue and ecru gingham with a royal blue lapel stitch in wool, silk and linen is the house working at the more considered and characterful end of its range, the kind of piece that reveals what it is gradually and entirely on its own terms.
