Bouclé is one of those fabrics that does the work for you — the looped, textured surface gives a coat depth and character without any need for pattern or hardware to carry it. Ours is a soft grey with a notch collar, cut clean and a little relaxed, in a bouclé made in Italy from 100% recycled PET.
The looped yarns make for a surface with real texture and a sturdy, substantial weave, and behind it sits a 60g thermal lining in 100% recycled polyester to keep the warmth in through the colder months. It fastens on four matt-finish buttons in recycled compressed paper and resin — you can close it right up to the throat when the weather turns — with two deep cotton-lined pockets to keep your hands and essentials warm. Inside, a smooth viscose lining lets it slip on and off over knitwear.
The grey is easy to build around: over a pale knit and leather-look trousers with tall boots, or a jumper and jeans for something more relaxed. It sits as happily over tailoring as it does over the weekend version — a soft, textured coat that lifts whatever's underneath without asking for attention.
