All you had to do was ask
Our Product team has worked overtime to revive a fit that hasn’t seen the light of day since the early 1900s. Every detail is typical of an early 20th-century field sports jacket.
- It’s cut straight with clean lines. Layer up without becoming a human onion.
- It’s a fairly boxy cut. Wool jackets have long been a staple of American workwear, bikers, and various other tearaways. The one thing they must absolutely guarantee is a free range of movement. Which is why ours hits the hips without covering your rear. Nod to heritage, room to move.
- The pockets do the heavy lifting. Old-school to the core. Three double-welted pockets add substance to the bomber: two to carry your hands, one up top to carry your phone. Job done.
- A softer shoulder line. A slight departure from vintage wool jackets—we’ve reworked the shoulders. The angle’s softer, more natural, and much more wearable.
Yes indeed
The Wool Jacket weighs in at 1.2 kg of pure new wool. This may sound irrelevant to some, but for us, it speaks volumes.
- A material that’s almost supernatural. Wool is the crown jewel of natural fibres – it regulates temperature, shrugs off smells and barely wrinkles. Oh, and it’s highly breathable. Sling a good kilo of the stuff over your shoulders and you’re set for anything.
- We went for a double-weave knit. Instead of slapping on a viscose lining, we chose something smarter: a double-weave. That’s basically two layers of fabric coming together to create a wool flannel that’s twice as warm, thick and tough.
- The RWS label that ticks all the right boxes. You know us — we’re not in the business of disrespecting sheep. We’ve taken care to source certified Responsible Wool Standard wool, an international standard guaranteeing traceable wool that respects both the animals and the land.
USA baby
As we’ve mentioned, our Wool Jacket takes inspiration from various early 20th-century American field sports jackets. Don’t let the word “sport” throw you—at the time, it referred to anything functional built for the outdoors.
- You get every old-school detail — cut, pockets, fabric, metal zipper, contrast stitching, and so on — reworked the Asphalte way.
- Take the zipped chest pocket. It’s been made bigger, so it can accommodate your iPhone Max, not just a soft-pack of Gauloises (unfiltered, naturally).
- Same for the collar: redesigned so you can wear it up or down. Your call.
How does preordering work?
Basically, it means you buy the garment before it’s produced. By pre‑ordering, you’re the one launching the production.
With this system, we only produce what’s sold, so we avoid overproduction and can offer you an excellent quality‑price ratio.
