Description: Up for your consideration is an authentic MOLESKIN Vintage 1960s French Blue Workwear Sport Jacket Tailored Blazer / Workwear / Chore Jacket / Bleu de Travail. It was made in France of durable moleskin to last a lifetime or longer.Moleskin is a heavy cotton fabric, woven and then sheared to create a short, soft pile on one side. The feel and appearance of its nap is similar to felt or chamois. Clothing made from moleskin is noted for its softness and durability. Its name is due to the soft brushed hand of the fabric, similar to the skin of a mole. Maintain moleskin’s tight weave—and preserve its most valued qualities—by machine-washing it then line-drying. Colors will gradually fade, and the result is a well-worn and weathered look. In fact, the unique patina of moleskin is one of its charms. The more it’s washed, the softer and suppler it gets; no amount of washing seems capable of wearing it out.** Feels like suede, Looks like silk, Wears like animal skin **Exceptional French tailoring, design, and workmanship:The back does not have a center seam, instead, there are two seams down the backsides that allow for the sewn-in waistband with darts for a tailored fitThe back of the arms are fitted with a curved seam for added detail and comfortNotched Collar Lapel - doubled fabric for added structureThree button closure (original buttons)Two large front hand patch pockets One small front chest patch pocket (left)One large internal chest pocket (right)Condition: Excellent condition - looks new with no sign of use or wear!Approximate Measurements - taken laying flat with buttons closed:Shoulder: 17" (shoulder to shoulder)Chest: 40" (armpit to pit doubled)Sleeve: 22" (shoulder to cuff)Length: 29" (shoulder to hem)Location and Shipping: This item was found is located in France and will be carefully packaged and shipped worldwide with tracking.
