The Jacket You Need In Your Life: Albam Weekend

It hasn't taken long for independent label Albam to establish itself as a veritable name on the British menswear circuit. This is thanks primarily to their philosophy of 'Modern Crafted Clothing' - an ethos that couldn't hold more true to their offering - and whilst the idea of contemporary British styling with a clean aesthetic is hardly a game changer, combine it with the sublime form and honest craftsmanship that their garments are reputed for, and you're onto a winning combination (just ask their rapidly expanding base of loyal enthusiasts).

The Weekend Jacket has been constructed with a compact cotton poplin, heavily washed to create a worn in feel. It is however, in my opinion, the detachable waxed cotton hood that gives this jacket an edge, creating a structured contrast to the overall relaxed nature of the garment.
