Product details
MotivMFG is headed by Samuel Wei, founder of Radiance Blue and the pioneer of the heritage market in China; and Daniel Gu, a third-generation tailor and designer. Together, they combine old-world tailoring (from various antique European manuals) with workwear production techniques. Constant research into garment production techniques from around the world inform their designs, with the goal of recreating, as opposed to just reproducing.
The Peak Lapel Lounge Jacket is Motiv's newest iteration of their original Denim Lounge Jacket, with some fit tweaks and some style tweaks throughout. It's an instant hit with us, featuring an extremely handsome 1920s-30s fit and Motiv's usual exceptional tailoring. Compared to the older Lounge Jacket style, the shoulders have been modified significantly, being completely re-cut and let out to better accommodate a greater variety of bodies, and the side pockets have been changed to a "carved-in" welted type for additional durability.
The fabric is a specialty custom selvedge produced exclusively for MotivMFG. Made from 100% cotton yarns, it uses heavy 21oz yarns in a very low-tension weave to produce a denim with surprising softness throughout. The looser weave brings the fabric down to a comfortable 15oz, with a remarkably good drape, and a construction that lends itself to tailoring — meaning the fit can be more easily adjusted by a tailor. The "natural" colorway combines ecru and gray yarns, and is rinsed to account for shrinkage and additionally relax the fabric. The canvas-colored fabric will age beautifully over time, developing a handsome and personalized patina for each person that wears it.
True to size, with a very tailored shape that fits handsomely right away and layers comfortably over shirts and light knits. The body is slightly short, usually worn in a 3-button stance that pairs best with high rise trousers. The trims are pretty great too, from the custom metal hardware to the selvedge details that are, well, everywhere (back seam, facings, cuffs, and undersleeve seams). The two internal pockets are cut from a charcoal cotton twill for an extra bit of visual variation, and the collar can of course be worn up if you so desire.
Fits true to size. Wash cold and hang dry.
