Classic boxy 1970s cut with a relaxed body and slightly cropped length, designed to sit wide through the chest and shoulders rather than fitted. Raglan sleeve construction, ribbed cuffs and hem, and a soft stand collar that gives the jacket its unmistakable period silhouette. Clean, simple and perfectly proportioned for the era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"574\" data-end=\"917\"\u003eConstructed from period polyester, which is fundamentally different from modern fast-fashion polyester. In the 1970s it was produced as a premium performance fabric, chosen for durability, colour retention and long-term shape. That is exactly why jackets like this still feel solid, hold their structure and remain so wearable decades later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"919\" data-end=\"937\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"919\" data-end=\"927\"\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"927\" data-end=\"930\"\u003e1970s\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"939\" data-end=\"962\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"939\" data-end=\"949\"\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"949\" data-end=\"952\"\u003eHelanico\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"964\" data-end=\"1178\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"964\" data-end=\"978\"\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"978\" data-end=\"981\"\u003eVery good vintage condition.

The combination of boxy cut, bold sleeve striping and restrained colour palette gives these jackets a timeless athletic look that still feels relevant today. Originals like this capture the balance between function and style that defined the decade, making them both highly wearable and genuinely collectible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMeasurements:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize on garment: N\/A\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOur modern sizing estimate: XS                                                                                                        \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShoulder to shoulder: 19\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePit to pit: 19\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInner sleeve to cuff: 17\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnder collar to lower back: 24\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition Notes:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease be aware. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAll our true vintage items come with a history, and minor signs of age, wear, or character should be expected.
