Valstar Green & Navy Harris Tweed Houndstooth Valstarino Jacket

Discover the Valstar Brown & Navy Harris Tweed Houndstooth Valstarino Jacket. Valstar was founded in Milan in 1911, and the Valstarino jacket the house developed in the 1930s is one of the founding documents of Italian casual menswear: a cropped blouson with bellows patch pockets, rib trim at the neck, hem and sleeve ends, and a relaxed silhouette that predates the bomber jacket as a category by several decades. The house has been making the same jacket with minimal revision for over ninety years, which is as direct a statement of confidence in a design as exists in Italian clothing. The rib trim here is in dark green, the contrast sitting correctly against the brown and navy of the tweed without competing with the pattern.

The cloth is genuine Harris Tweed, handwoven by islanders in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland and carrying the Orb certification that the Harris Tweed Act of 1993 protects. The houndstooth runs in brown and navy, an unusual combination for a pattern more commonly seen in black and white or brown and cream, and the dry, slightly rough hand of the Harris Tweed gives the Valstarino a substance and presence that a smoother cloth would not. Bellows patch pockets with flap and button sit at the hips, the jacket closes with buttons, and the interior is fully lined in a cotton cupro blend, smooth and breathable against the tweed. Harris Tweed on a Valstarino is a specific pairing of two equally specific traditions, and this piece sits at the intersection of both.
