Description:

Item:
Original 1970s suede and knit jacket cardigan in a deep brown tone, combining soft suede front panels with knitted sleeves, collar, placket and hem. Finished with a button front, western-style yoke detailing and large flap patch pockets to the front. The cut is slightly boxy with a straight drape, giving it that easy 70s leisurewear shape that sits somewhere between tailored knitwear and casual outerwear.

Era:
1970s

Brand:

Condition:
Very good vintage condition. Suede and knit both present well with strong colour and a clean overall look. Light, honest wear consistent with age, adding character without detracting. No notable structural issues.

Provenance Note:
This is exactly the kind of crossover piece that gives 1970s menswear its charm. The mix of suede and knit makes it richer and more distinctive than a standard cardigan or jacket, while the western yoke and pocket detailing give it real period identity. A strong, characterful layer that feels both relaxed and collectible.

Condition Notes:

Please be aware. All our true vintage items come with a history, and minor signs of age, wear, or character should be expected. Any notable marks, damage, or repairs will always be clearly mentioned. This natural wear is part of what gives genuine vintage its individuality and authenticity. True vintage should not be confused with modern second-hand clothing

We photograph all garments using a professional, studio-grade imaging system designed to show colour, texture, and shape as accurately as possible. This setup was built specifically to give a true representation of each piece and avoid misleading presentation; however, we do not take photos of inside the garment. While we take great care in inspecting every piece, with true vintage it is always possible that a minor detail may be missed.

Sizing Notes:

Please compare these measurements to a similar item you already own, laid flat (rather than measuring your body). Start with pit-to-pit (chest), then check length. Vintage pieces can be cut boxier and shorter than modern equivalents, so the measurements listed are the best guide to fit.

Our modern sizing estimates are based on chest measurements using the following tee / shirt sizing scale:

31–34″ = XXS
35–36″ = XS
37–38″ = S
39–40″ = M
41–42″ = L
43–44″ = XL
45–46″ = XXL
47–48″ = 3XL

For jackets, knitwear, and padded outerwear, we grade one size down from the tee scale to allow for structure, lining, bulk, or layering.
