The fabric used in the British Mil. 3B Jacket is a 100% plain weave high-density linen with an air tumbler finish. By using a slightly thicker linen thread and increasing the number of threads, it is thicker than general linen shirts, making it an excellent light summer jacket weight and giving it more structure.
It has a 3 Button single lapel and the shape is inspired by Vintage Military Hospital Jackets. These jackets were made particularly roomy so as not to interfere with any injuries. The result is a nice boxy casual blazer perfect for layering over the summer.
It features two large patch pockets on the body and an internal chest pocket. No finishings on the cuffs so they can be rolled when it gets really warm. The lapels are widened for a casual look and the back is single vented.
Can be worn as a casual summer suit with the British Mil. Easy Trousers, in the same Fabric.
