Sugar Cane Fiction & Romance 9.5oz Moleskin Jacket Brown
This work jacket is crafted from durable moleskin, a fabric widely used in American workwear throughout the 1930s and 1940s for its toughness and soft, brushed finish. Designed with practicality in mind, it features four welted pockets, each reinforced with horsehide leather for added strength at key stress points.
The collar and cuffs are finished with two-tone wool ribbing, accented with subtle needle-out detailing every 20 stitches — a small but distinctive nod to vintage construction techniques. Inside, the jacket is lined with a Troy blanket, providing warmth and character true to period work jackets. During the same era, similar styles were often produced in heavy corduroy or finished with sheepskin linings, reinforcing this jacket’s authentic roots.
