DOUBLE DIAMOND SACK COAT / PRINTED MOLESKIN

DESCRIPTION
  • The DOUBLE DIAMOND SACK COAT / PRINTED MOLESKIN is a ‘salt & pepper’ work jacket, achieved by printing a black moleskin cloth.
  • The sack suit has origins in 1840s France, where it is known as a sacque coat.
  • While the coat is best known for its loose fit, the name "sack coat" comes from the garment's simple tailoring.
  • Unlike the more intricate frock coat of the era, which is made from four back pieces, the sacque coat was much simpler, consisting of only two pieces.
  • The simple cut and affordability of the sack coat made it a practical outerwear choice for labourers, gaining popularity among blue-collar workers like miners, cowboys, and farmers.
  • Its formal cut also made it suitable for public occasions and socialising with peers.
  • The use of moleskin as a working fabric was heavily adopted in Europe in the 19th century, with widespread use throughout France.
  • Typically, moleskin is a dense cotton cloth that is sheared and brushed on one side to create a plush nap, resembling the texture of a mole's skin—hence its name.
  • The soft and substantial weight made moleskin jackets and trousers favoured choices for farmers and outdoorsmen seeking warmth and wind resistance.
  • Its tight weave also made it a suitable protective layer in factory settings where workers were likely to come into contact with sparks or hot metals.
  • Salt & Pepper fabric is typically created using heather yarn, but the effect can also be achieved with resist or discharge printing techniques.
  • These methods allow for the creation of repeated stripes or patterns by either preventing the dye from taking in specified areas or by removing dye from the fabric via oxidation.
  • The traditional Japanese method of dyeing fabrics, known as Katazome, is achieved by applying a resist paste through a stencil.
  • Pigment application can be done by hand painting, complete immersion, or a combination of both.
  • The DOUBLE DIAMOND SACK COAT / PRINTED MOLESKIN features a single-breasted, three button closure below a notched, rounded lapel.
