This iconic hunting/shooting/hickory golf blazer with its significant overlaping waist belt and vertical panels in front and back has been inspired by the old heritage Norfolk jacket (read more below). We have modernized this classic in many ways. Instead of making it in the original tweed fabric, we have made it in premium supple goat suede with a heavy-duty waxed finish. Designed to last and only improve with time, love and care. The jacket can be worn in harsher climate and lighter rain and will age gracefully.

We have also added contrast coloured quilted and light padded chest/shoulder patches to reduce recoil when in the field. We have also made the sleeves splitted in two colours.. The garment featuring deep square bellows pockets with flap and a special ’plate’ with an elastic patron belt that can be pulled out from one of the pockets. The jacket has 5 front buttons, and the jacket/blazer can either be buttoned will all buttons closed and the collar and lapel standing up, or it can be worn with the collar and lapel folded down, more like a normal blazer with only the waist button closed. The jacket also offering extra space by offering pleated action center back and pleated shoulder parts, and a single vent in back for better mobility. The garment is half-lined with a plaid cotton flannel.

There have been several theories regarding the origin of the Norfolk jacket. The first theory is that the jacket originated with Henry Fitzalan-Howard, 15:th of Duke of Norfolk, who invented it for use as a hunting coat in the late 1860’s.
