Description:

Item: Full zip ribbed knit jacket in warm brown, with a high ribbed stand collar, two ribbed slash pockets, ribbed shoulder panel detail, and ribbed cuffs and hem. A structured, close-fitting 70s cut with good weight to the knit — sits comfortably as an outer layer.

Era: 1970s

Brand: —

Condition: Very good vintage condition.

A note on the fabric: this is a wool blend from the 1970s — it has the warmth and slight texture you'd expect from a piece with wool content, and it has held its shape and colour well.

Provenance Note: The zip-through knit jacket in this kind of earthy brown is about as useful a piece as the 1970s produced — it layers naturally over a shirt, wears well under a heavier coat, and the colour works across the year. The ribbed shoulder panels and pocket detailing give it a subtle sportif quality without pushing it into leisure territory. A well-constructed, thoroughly wearable piece that has aged without any fuss.

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

Buying true vintage clothing:
