UPDATED CLASSIC: 1940s BRITISH WAXED BELTED JACKET

Inspired by WWII paratrooper's field jackets, this post-war waxed belted style was then to be a long, tough, multi-pocketed coat to protect motorbike trials riders from branches, falls and the weather.

We've used it as inspiration to create a tough, classic travel jacket.

Today’s waxed belted jackets have dropped in quality. The design has barely moved on, using sticky old-style waxed cotton, which is heavy, unpleasant and needs re-proofing.

We've developed it into a more comfortable, higher specification jacket, subtly using modern developments for a versatile travel jacket across a range of environments.

TOUGH LANCASHIRE TWILL

From the British Millerain dry-waxed cotton you can drag through brambles (then machine wash), to the world's best AustriAlpin Cobra belt buckle, this is a jacket built for a lifetime of work.

EVERY DETAIL, BEAUTIFULLY UPGRADED

We've dispensed with the usual soft, shiny brass snaps, utilising gunmetal Cobrax B:lock snaps, used by special forces worldwide.

There are subtle design tweaks everywhere, from the cotton cashmere lining to the scalloped cuffs for greater coverage over the knuckles.

Hell, we've even put burst-snaps at the hem, so if you sit down too fast, the long jacket will open, not leave you stuck.

BUSINESS TRAVEL POCKETS

When FRAHM founder designer Nick flies, he wears this. The huge cargo pockets can accept water bottles (plural), noise cancelling headphones, passport, snacks, book, and more.

He can walk straight into a meeting, with all that stuff, and still look smart, yet still get coffee in a dodgy part of town, and fit in.

Add in some trans-Himalayan trekking, and it's quite the jacket.

11 sizes, for all men

We tailor for men from 5'4" to 6'10" tall.

With chest sizes from 36" to 56".

That means eleven sizes & free sleeve alterations, unique in jacket brands.

Importantly, we take time to tailor exceptional fabrics that drape flatteringly, not suck around the bits you didn't want to accentuate.

We make you look manly, in a "I want to feel good, but not look like I'm trying too hard" way.

If you're not sure of your size, we can check your exact size easily. Everyone here has been helping men with sizing for years.

WE DON'T STACK IT HIGH, OR SELL IT CHEAP

Nothing exceptional was ever easy.

Great jackets don't sit on dusty shelves with half price tickets on.

We choose to be slow & expensive, to carefully build an extraordinary reputation for doing what we promised we would.

Our singular concentration on long term reputation, not weekly sales targets, means you get a far better jacket.

WHY PRE-ORDER?

NO DISTRACTIONS

FRAHM is focussed on doing one thing really well - we upgrade classic men's jackets styles. That's it.

We make each design once a year. Each one is spread across the calendar. We're not distracted by the constant pressure to create new fashion ranges every six months.

After we've delivered that year's edition to our customers, we re-launch the next year's edition.

WHEN SHOULD I ORDER?

The short answer is always as soon as you can.

We're booking production space and getting fabric made twelve months before they've even been made.

Options gradually run out as we tick down from 12 months ahead to the arrival date.

If you see gaps in the options of colour/size, etc, that's an alarm bell.

WHY DO I KEEP SEEING 20% OFF?

That 20% discount doesn't mean we're in a Sale. We don't do them. We don't overbuy.

That's the pre-order reward on FRAHM Jackets (but not on collaborations).

You help us, we help you. Fair.

If there's any stock left, or rare returns, they are at full price.
