The jacket carries the relaxed tailoring typical of the era with a comfortable slightly boxy cut that layers easily over shirts or knitwear. The rich tan suede gives the piece a warm, textured character while the patch pocket construction adds a subtle utilitarian feel to the otherwise classic tailored silhouette.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"545\" data-end=\"559\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"545\" data-end=\"553\"\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1980s\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"561\" data-end=\"598\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"561\" data-end=\"571\"\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vera Pelle – Made in Italy\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"600\" data-end=\"871\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"600\" data-end=\"614\"\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very good vintage condition.

Pieces like this reflect the relaxed approach to tailoring that emerged through the late twentieth century, blending the structure of a blazer with the softness and character of suede. The warm colour and Italian manufacture give this example a timeless feel that pairs naturally with denim, wool trousers or classic workwear.\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: S                                                                                                         \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShoulder to shoulder: 18\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePit to pit: 20\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInner sleeve to cuff: 15\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnder collar to lower back: 28\"\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.
