Made to Measure Winter Jackets

Winter calls for warm, dense and textured cloths: heavy wools, flannel and tweed. The favourite season of many tailors, when heavier cloths create a beautiful drape and envelop the body like armour.

Below are a selection of jackets we have made for ourselves and for our clients, using fabrics from our extensive cloth library at Ardentes Clipei.

Alsport Tweed / Huddersfield

From the Alsport II bunch by Huddersfield New Fine Worsteds, this cloth is a true suit of armour, weighing 370 grams per metre. An exceptionally dense and hardwearing Tweed, this jacket is a robust addition to the winter wardrobe. Its fine Herringbone pattern comes in a subtle green-grey hue. Take care of it, and one day it may be passed down to your children. Never shy of pattern, Ardentes Clipei offers one of the largest collections of Tweed in Paris.

Pure cachemire / LORO PIANA

Jackets made in pure cashmere has a particular lustre to them. Incredibly soft, the very fine wool warms like no other. This is a precious wool, rare in comparison to most and of exceptional quality. The double pattern of check and windowpane is expressive, in a discrete masculine palette.

Tweed / Abraham Moons

Houndstooth in this size we often recommend for a versatile Tweed Jacket. This colour palette is light and masculine : beige, navy and petrol blue with hints of olive green, in a rich textured blend that only tweed can achieve. Abraham Moons is an exceptional and vertically integrated English mill, producing tweed from wool to cloth. We have seen it with our own eyes, it's magnificent.

Alsport Tweed / Huddersfield

An exceptionally dense and hardwearing Tweed, this jacket is a robust addition to the winter wardrobe. From the Alsport II bunch by Huddersfield New Fine Worsteds, this cloth is a true armour, weighing 370 grams per metre.

It is a cloth that does not go unnoticed — it's expressive and unmistakably English. This large-scale weave pattern with beige background, is accented with vivid checks in magenta, black and olive green.

TWEED / ABRAHAM MOONS

The Herringbone pattern is one of the most versatile and discrete Tweeds, like a braid or subtle waves, it beautifully captures the colour variation and depth occurring in Tweed. Abraham Moons is one of the most impressive makers of cloth in England, vertically integrated, from raw wool to final cloth. A vast registry of herringbone tweed awaits you in Ardentes Clipei's fabric collection.

HOPSACK / FOX BROTHERS

Designed for Jacketing in particular, Hopsack is crease resistant and offers a slightly more casual look than a smooth cloth. This wool Hopsack is generous in weight and gives the impression of a knit with plenty of texture. A great option for a club blazer adorn with brass buttons.

At Ardentes Clipei you will find a large selection of wool hopsack in different weights and colours.
