Description:

Item:
1970s lightweight nylon jacket by Jennings in bold pillar-box red with a contrasting navy horizontal chest panel. Full zip front with ribbed hem and cuffs, oversized pointed collar, and clean, streamlined silhouette typical of European casual outerwear of the decade. Simple, graphic design that balances sport and everyday wear effortlessly.

Era:
1970s

Brand:
Jennings

Condition:
Good vintage condition with gentle creasing to the nylon consistent with age and use. Fabric remains strong and glossy, zip functions correctly, and the jacket is structurally sound throughout. Honest wear that adds character and authenticity.

Provenance Note:
This jacket sits perfectly in the space between sportswear and streetwear that defined the 1970s. The bold colour blocking and lightweight construction reflect a time when casual jackets were designed to be both practical and visually confident. Jennings pieces like this were made to be worn hard and lived in, and the appeal today lies in that originality. It carries the spirit of everyday European style from an era when simplicity and colour did all the talking.

Condition Notes:

Please be aware. All our true vintage items come with a story, and we cannot guarantee any item will be totally free of marks / damage but anything we think of note will be mentioned. Furthermore, a lot of vintage items gain character because of wear and tear. Buying a true vintage item is not the same as buying new and is not to be confused with second-hand clothing.

We have also tried to accurately depict each garment using a photography setup with over 90% true to life accuracy. 

We do not take photos of inside the garment.
