The Norfolk jacket dates from mid-nineteenth century England, most commonly attributed to the 15th Duke of Norfolk, and designed with a single practical purpose: a shooting coat that would not bind or restrict when raising a gun to fire. The box pleats, the belt, and the pocket configuration that defines the format were all functional decisions before they were aesthetic ones. The leather at the shoulder is a gun pad, absorbing the recoil of a shotgun through a full day on the moor. The leather at the elbow is for durability when resting on rough ground. The large envelope-style pockets with curved flaps and horn buttons carried cartridges and shooting accessories. The diagonal pocket is a cartridge pocket, angled specifically for fast and easy draw. And yes, the large inside pockets running the full depth of the front panels are game pockets, designed to carry shot birds directly against the body after the retrieve. Every detail on this jacket had a function before Ralph Lauren translated it into the visual language he has used consistently across his career.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cloth is a brown and green dry tweed with a red overcheck, springy and slightly rough in the British country tradition, the kind of cloth that improves in wind and light rain and smells correctly of the countryside after a season's wear. This is precisely the wardrobe that Guy Ritchie's The Gentlemen drew from, the English landed aristocracy's sporting dress worn with the kind of ease that only comes from treating it as clothing rather than costume. A vintage Ralph Lauren Norfolk jacket in this cloth is a collector's piece for anyone who understands that reference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Ralph Lauren","offers":[{"title":"52 IT \/ 42 US \/ Large \/ Brown \/ 100% Tweed","offer_id":59895083925836,"sku":"SA02965","price":548.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0653\/6187\/1105\/files\/Photoroom_20261112_141755.jpg?v=1794579494","url":"https:\/\/sartorialistamsterdam.com\/products\/ralph-lauren-brown-tweed-norfolk-hunting-belted-fieldjacket","provider":"Sartorialista","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
