My latest Loro Piana jacket: the Yorkshire

 

I have to confess that I love Loro Piana, their jackets, their coats, the high quality of the cachemire and of the whool. I already own a Roadster jacket and a Horsey jacket: they are both very practical, perfect for travelling with a lot of care to details and of course exceptional finishings. Obviously, their prices are very high but due to the timeless design and the hard-wearing, I think that I will be buried with them.

A few days ago, I had the wish to buy a warmer one in order to be ready to brave the first signs of Winter arrival.

I chose a new jacket in the collection: the Yorkshire.

The Yorkshire is a slim-fit jacket (it is the reason why I bought the XL size while I usually wear L sizes with Loro Piana) made of light cashmere and which features the Storm System. Due to the hard rain we may face here in Paris, that's a good option!

It is a leisure jacket but due to its superb elegance and the quality of materials, it can be worn at the office without any problem for Fridaywear for example. I already dit it.

This jacket is perfect with gray flannel trousers or with denim jeans for a more casual outfit.

It features two zip pocket on top of the chest: I use them for my ID or my credit card.

There is a ticket pocket above the right pocket.

Like it is very often the case, the jacket has a dual fastening system with zip and buttons.

There are two pockets inside, one for the wallet, one perfect for the phone.

I propose to browse some pics.

Taking pictures of clothes is very difficult and sorry, they don't give justice to the quality of the product!

Close view. I prefer to wear it with the collar turned up:

Perfect finishings as usual... pockets trim is made of suede goatskin:

The lining is made of 85% cotton and 15% cashmere. Shell is of course 100% cashmere.

A brand I really love and trust:

Thanks to the Storm System, I can wear the jacket even if the weather is unsettled...

The jacket is available in two colours: blue navy (mine) and must as pictured below (not my cup of tea). These pictures come from Loro Piana website and I uploaded them to give you a more precise idea of the style of the jacket:

In a few words, I love it and I'm sure that I will wear it a lot! It is the reason why I like Fall and Winter: they are the best seasons to take advantage of beautiful clothes, coats and materials.
