Description
The Award Jacket is a refined reinterpretation of a vintage classic, crafted with exceptional care and a commitment to sustainability. Made in Japan, it features a rare double-woven melton fabric, with only the warp containing two layers — a distinctive construction that gives the jacket its unique depth and structure. A rapier loom, rather than a shuttle loom, is used to achieve the rich, multicoloured weave, resulting in a fabric full of texture and tonal complexity.
The wool used is sourced from leftover yarns, textile scraps, and reclaimed garments collected in Japan. Each material is carefully selected for its colour and quality, then respun using a special process to create a high-grade, environmentally responsible fabric. The surface is intentionally left with a natural, slightly dry hand to replicate the classic melton texture of early 20th-century jackets.
Thoughtfully designed, the jacket features a padded collar with the outer stitch line removed for a fuller silhouette and generous pockets secured with dot buttons for added practicality. With its relaxed fit and vintage-inspired detailing, the Award Jacket blends traditional craftsmanship with modern sustainability.

Features
Jackman
In 1949, driven by a passion for baseball, visionary Mitsugu Tanabe quit his day job and founded the Tanabe Meriyasu factory in Fukui, Japan. Inspired by the stockings of visiting American baseball teams in the years following the war, Tanabe began to create baseball stirrup stockings of exceptional quality, even inventing new machines in order to yield a result superior to anything else available. Tanabe Meriyasu soon gained a reputation for quality and craftmanship. The factory went on to supply the official training wears of the 1964 Japanese Olympic team.
The Jackman brand as it exists today is the evolution of Tanabe’s founding vision. Each piece is still crafted in the original factory, and the Jackman offering may have extended far beyond baseball stirrup stockings, but the same commitment to quality that inspired Mitsugu Tanabe remains. Jackman even continue to use the original vintage machines; although the pace is slower than today’s machines, the quality endures.
All sizing information is for guide purposes only.
Where possible we provide individual product size guides. If these aren't
available we provide a generic brand size guide. Individual garments may
differ from these measurements and we cannot guarantee the item you receive
will match these measurements exactly.
Many brands also have a level of tolerance in size differences
between the same item - this is usually 0.5 inches.
If no size guide is shown below, it means there is not one available at
present for this item and it will be added if/when it becomes available.
