{"product_id":"bauer-jacket-black","title":"Bauer Jacket - Black","description":"\u003cp\u003eBased out of Japan's Iwate Prefecture, one of the northernmost provinces, Gorsch was born into a quiet rural life, taking inspiration from antique German tailoring and early proto-workwear. The garments are beautifully constructed, frequently making use of deadstock vintage textiles, with tailored silhouettes and unisex styling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGorsch's Spring\/Summer 2024 Collection is their 12th seasonal release, and takes inspiration from the wardrobe and personal style of a local grape farmer, \u003ci\u003eMr. Sasaki,\u003c\/i\u003e and his wife, \u003ci\u003eKanako\u003c\/i\u003e. They run a small farm in Iwate's Shiwa District, growing grapes for white, red, and orange natural wines using what Gorsch refer to as \"natural farming principles\" - having purchased and restored an abandoned vineyard to produce naturally fermented wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith names like \u003ci\u003eBauer\u003c\/i\u003e \u0026amp; \u003ci\u003eBauerin\u003c\/i\u003e, both meaning \"farmer\" in German, the styles are understated - \"simple\" in appearance yet deceptively complex in execution. The rustic undertones in each piece's design help to balance the more formal silhouettes, creating elevated casual garments that fit easily into a summer wardrobe, whether you're on the farm laboring, or sharing a bottle of something with friends: you'll look your absolute best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bauer Jacket is based on 1930s era semi-formalwear, with a design based on \"Town Jackets\" worn by rural farmers on special occasions and during town gatherings. Cut as a two button blazer, it's got a tailored shape, with a half-belted back and notch lapels above the placket. The pockets are slightly undersized, and pair with the slightly-larger-than-average body for a subtly casual silhouette, further emphasized by the double back vent and plain cuffs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's made from Gorsch's \"Weather Wool\" a wool\/linen fabric with all the best features of both fibers that make it up. Woven at a slightly low tension, the wool yarns are brushed for softness, helping to minimize the linen content's wrinkling without eliminating the subtle sheen present across its face. It's given a final rinse after finishing as well, helping relax the fibers further and emphasizing some of the unique textural irregularities throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn excellent garment and fabric for warmer weather, it features a partial buggy lining through the body, with tonal hardware and custom woven labels. Over time, the already exceptional fabric will continue to break in, developing a unique and \"authentic\" patina throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFits true to size.
