Ermenegildo Zegna Warm Taupe & Maroon Linen, Wool & Silk Check Jacket
46C IT / 3C US / Small Short
Curator's Description
Curator's DescriptionDiscover the Ermenegildo Zegna jacket in a warm taupe and maroon check, tailored from a seasonal blend of linen, wool, and silk that offers both breathability and texture. The palette is autumnal without heaviness, enriched by the interplay of maroon overcheck lines against a muted taupe base, sophisticated yet versatile across settings. Cut in the house’s Firen fit, the silhouette is gently structured with a soft shoulder, moderate waist suppression, and balanced proportions that evoke a relaxed but refined demeanor. Notch lapels and flap pockets reinforce its timeless character, while a matching vest, available separately in the collection, allows for sartorial elevation when desired.
The Firen fit is Zegna’s modern interpretation of Italian tailoring ease, offering a slightly roomier profile than their more tapered Milano line, yet maintaining sharp lines and a clean chest. Made in Zegna’s own ateliers, the jacket is half-canvassed, unlined and lightly constructed, allowing the premium cloth to drape naturally with minimal internal rigidity. The linen provides breathability, the wool lends resilience, and the silk adds a soft lustre to the overall finish. Every element, from the hand-attached collar to the precise alignment of the check across seams, reflects Zegna’s unwavering commitment to quiet luxury.

Sartorial Details
Full Canvas Construction
A sartorial jacket - or coat - needs an interlining that will help give it shape and mold it. Canvas gives the item a tailored and crafted look. In short, it breathes life into it. Purely technical, canvas is made from either horsehair, wool, mohair or camel hair. It could also be a mix of them all, with varying thickness and weight. The canvas is stitched to the jacket, often by hand, thus making the canvas pieces 'floating' in the middle of the inner and outer cloth. This gives the jacket added flexibility. The canvas runs from the upper parts, all the way down to the end of the jacket. After you wear your canvassed suit for a while, it will begin to take your shape and look incredibly natural.
Soft Shoulders
Soft Shoulders, or lightly padded shoulder construction, gives a softer, more casual silhouette to a tailored jacket. Soft shoulders have little padding and follow the contour of the individual’s shoulder to accentuate the wearer’s natural features.
Buttonhole
The buttonhole on the lapel of a jacket, traditionally found on the left side, is a classic feature rooted in both functionality and decoration. Historically, it served a practical purpose, allowing gentlemen to fasten the lapel to the opposite side for extra protection against cold weather or to secure a boutonnière, a decorative flower. While its functional use has largely diminished in modern times, the lapel buttonhole remains a staple of formal and semi-formal menswear, often used to add a touch of elegance with the addition of a boutonnière for special occasions.
Two-Button Closure
The jacket has a two-button closure which keeps the profile neat.
Chest pocket - Rounded welt pocket
Also known as ‘barchetta’ Italian for ‘little boat’, it is so named because this pocket floats on the chest gently angled upward, just like the bow of a sailboat. These pockets echo the lively roll of a lapel that carries the spring of canvas and natural wool, unlike machine-made chest pockets that have a more stamped-out, rectangular shape and less life.
Darts
The tailors adds two darts - think of them as pinched seams - to ensure the jacket’s body achieves a slim silhouette. The process, called mezzo punto riprese, is done entirely by hand.
Horn Buttons
Horn buttons are prized for their quality. They are made with the finest genuine horn material, improving the appearance of the suit. And because they are so strong, you don't have to worry about them cracking or breaking.
Flap Pockets
This was originally supposed to keep debris from getting into jacket pockets when worn in the country. Flap pockets occupy a sort of middle ground in terms of formality: they are the main choice for business suits, but they can also appear on sport coats as a testament to their casual origins.
