Kiton Grey Pure Cashmere Pied de Poule Jacket

Discover the Kiton Grey Pure Cashmere Pied de Poule Jacket. Pied de poule is built from a broken twill weave in two tones, the characteristic interlocking shapes formed by the alternating thread sequence. In pure cashmere the softness of the fibre blurs the precise edges of the pattern, and at this scale the geometry takes on an almost star-like quality, the shapes reading less as the conventional houndstooth and more as a repeating abstract motif. The effect is specific to cashmere at this weight and fineness, and it gives the cloth a visual character that the same pattern woven in wool would not produce. Grey keeps the jacket within a composed, versatile register while allowing the cloth's surface to carry the full interest.

The construction is Kiton throughout: spalla camicia shoulder, handmade buttonholes of the standard the house maintains across all its production, and 2.5 button closure. The jetted pockets place the jacket at the more formal end of the sport jacket register, the clean, recessed welt sitting flush against the front panel without the visual weight of a flap. This example comes from M. Bardelli in Milan, one of Italy's most respected luxury menswear retailers, a provenance that speaks directly to the quality and condition of the piece.

Kiton was founded by Ciro Paone in 1968 in Arzano, near Naples. Ciro Paone was born in Naples in 1933; he came from a family of fabric dealers who had been operative for five generations – which have now become seven generations. For more than 3 decades, Ciro’s passion gave rise to the Kiton project. With the founding of Kiton, Ciro turned his greatest passion into a vocation, elevating tailoring from a modest artisan craft to an artistic expression: the love for beauty, the love for beautiful garments. His entire existence focuses on two fundamentals: passion and quality.
