There’s light, there’s deconstructed, and then there’s ultra-thin. This is the last one. It’s Calista Flockhart thin. Barely there. It’s more shirt than sport-coat. If the number of words in your standard Dappered review/feature were based on the amount of weight to the garment, this one would go something like this:
It’s shockingly nice.
And that’d be it. But bear with me for a few more sentences. The local brick and mortar Macy’s didn’t have it, so I got it off the web. When it showed up and I pulled it out of the box, the first words out of my mouth were: “What the hell is this?” There’s really nothing too it, and I thought there was no way it was going to look good.
Then I put it on. Armholes are good and high. Fit is nice and trim, but still airy for summer. Micro gingham pattern looks great with jeans, and it’ll look good with chinos too. The online description reads: “Cotton/nylon/polyester.” That’s wrong. Tag says 100% cotton and it certainly feels and breathes like it too.
Not everyone will love the second-shirt weight of this sport coat. But many will. I’m one of them.
See the pattern up close here. Also, proof that the inside has little to no construction.
