Founded in 1933, Arnys of Paris was an independent luxury men’s clothier known for its extraordinarily fine products embodying the classic Rive Gauche style, until the maison was acquired by Berluti and ended its business in 2012. Since then Arnys products have become ever more precious and collectible to those who love menswear.

This weighty casual jacket is Arnys’ interpretation of the naval peacoat — that classical double breasted jacket in a hardy wool, with a generous lapel, two hip pockets and two slanted hand-warmers. Like everything that Arnys has touched, details are deliberated over and refined from the original. The cloth of this jacket is a luxurious navy herringbone tweed with red stripes. The buttons are impressed with Arnys’ intricate emblem. The pocket flaps are given a gentle and elegant curve.
