Zegna Sport Technical Leather Jacket

Zegna was founded in 1910 when Ermenegildo Zegna began using his family’s wool mill and looms to create what he described as “the most beautiful fabric in the world”. After gaining initial popularity, through the 1920s Ermenegildo imported the finest materials and machinery to achieve his vision and by the mid-20th century when he passed the company to his son, Zegna was regarded as one of the finest fabricmakers in the world. His sons then saw the opportunity to expand into the luxury clothing industry themselves, starting with made-to-measure formalwear in the 1960s/70s and beginning to open boutiques across the world from the 1980s. Today, Zegna is still regarded as one of the leaders in luxury menswear as the brand is still as dedicated as ever to producing the highest quality fabrics but with a larger emphasis on sustainability. 

This particular piece is from the ‘Zegna Sport’ line, first launched in 1999 with the aim of developing and producing performance focused materials for garments that would blend the formal sophistication Zegna was known for with activewear. The jacket features a very high quality leather construction with unique panelling and a wicked mesh interior lining for optimal weatherproofing. There are 2 main pockets with an interior stash pocket, ventilation holes at the pits and back channels, as well as vented mesh around the collar. One of the highest quality, best fitting jackets from the sport line.

Great condition with minor signs of wear - some damage by the left cuff.
