'Modern Classic' is a term often used to dress up a piece of contemporary menswear that might riff on a heritage garment but doesn't really add anything new. There's nothing wrong with reproducing classic silhouettes, but don't call them modern if they don't refresh the original. In our Hythe jacket, we think we've genuinely created a modern classic of a menswear jacket - something that references chore jackets of old, but that has been given a modern treatment in terms of the fabrics it is made from, as well as the unique pocket configuration.
As spring/summer layers go, the Hythe jackets that we have crafted in ecological linen are two of the most versatile pieces you can own. Super soft and lightweight, these jackets wear more like linen shirts. They are perfect for layering over a simple white t-shirt or a striped polo, adding an element of utility and masculinity to your fits.
