"Burberrys" 90’s early british tweed country tailored jacket

Lining has stains.

With a background rooted in British tradition, Burberrys has continued to refine the functional beauty and tailoring dignity symbolized by trench coats, and here we introduce a piece where the substantial tweed exudes a quiet presence.

This is a masterpiece that brings the neatness derived from the country to urban styling.

First and foremost, the deep, melange-like tweed fabric creates a sense of depth, with a high thread density that prevents the surface from stretching out and maintains a clear outline even at a distance, preserving a three-dimensional feel. Additionally, the composition, mainly wool with a slight mix of nylon, works to retain the warmth of wool while preventing deformation, making it easier to maintain the jacket’s shape over repeated wear, which is a unique added value of this piece.

The lapel is designed to be wide, and the position of the gorge is kept low, evoking the atmosphere of a classic British jacket. The line from the shoulders to the chest flows horizontally, creating a poised stance regardless of gender. The front features two buttons, and the not-too-deep meeting maintains a lightness, making it easy to incorporate into daily wear despite the use of substantial materials.

Patch pockets are placed at the waist, and the design does not exaggerate the flaps or switching, allowing the expression of the tweed to take center stage. While borrowing the country style context, it avoids looking rustic, which is a skillful aspect. The cuffs are finished with multiple buttons for a classic look, giving a neat appearance to the hands and maintaining a refined look even with layered inner wear.

The inside features a smooth lining made of cupro, reducing stress during wear and removal, and the check pattern on the sleeve lining peeks out with each movement, subtly securing the Burberrys identity. The subdued outer tweed contrasts with the interior, which contains the brand’s story, functioning as a luxury that only those who understand can appreciate.

Additionally, as evidence that this is a product from the early 1990s, the manufacturer code C-TK83 listed on the care label is cited, which indicates the era when Sanyo Shokai was responsible for authorized licensed manufacturing in Japan, and is reliably positioned as a piece from around 1990 to 1994. The reason why C-TK83 specimens from this era are being reevaluated in terms of sewing precision and durability in today’s market is because it is clear that they were designed with long-term wear in mind, from material selection to sewing techniques.

Styling-wise, pairing wool pants or neat slacks to align the texture's focus enhances the depth of the tweed, and layering a shirt or a thin knit as an inner piece allows for a relaxed yet refined British elegance. Furthermore, layering with a long coat that connects the tailoring lines creates a genderless elegance and a sense of mode that can be enjoyed.

Take this opportunity.
