Design & Performance
The performance of this jacket is rooted in its intelligently engineered fabric composition. By blending wool with polyester and a touch of Lycra, Brook Taverner has created a garment that is both resilient and flexible. The wool provides natural breathability and a premium feel, while the polyester ensures the jacket can withstand the rigours of daily wear without losing its shape. The addition of Lycra elastane is particularly beneficial for active professionals, as it provides a subtle stretch that allows for a full range of movement without the fabric becoming strained.
This medium-weight fabric offers enough substance to hold its tailored shape beautifully throughout the day, yet remains light enough for year-round wear in climate-controlled environments. The plain back design ensures a smooth, clean look from every angle, making it an excellent choice for client-facing roles where first impressions are paramount.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
To truly represent your brand, the Calvi Slim Fit Jacket can be customised by our expert team. For a garment of this quality, we typically recommend embroidery. Our in-house specialists can apply your company logo or staff names with precision, usually to the lapel or breast, providing a permanent and highly professional finish that complements the wool-rich fabric.
While embroidery is the standard for corporate tailoring, we also offer high-quality print options for larger, bolder designs if required. All customisation is handled at our dedicated facility in Telford, where we have been perfecting our craft since 1976. Our team ensures that every stitch or print meets our rigorous standards before it reaches your door.
Use Cases
The Calvi Jacket is perfectly suited for high-end corporate environments, including legal firms, financial institutions, and consultancy agencies. Its modern cut also makes it an excellent choice for boutique hotel receptionists, airline cabin crew, or any role where a sophisticated, approachable, and professional image is required. It pairs exceptionally well with tailored trousers or a matching skirt for a complete corporate uniform.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, please note that this is a slim-fit garment designed to sit closer to the body. If you prefer a more relaxed feel or intend to wear thicker layers beneath the jacket, you may wish to consider your sizing carefully. The centre back length for a size 12 Regular is approximately 55.5cm, which provides a modern, shorter profile that sits elegantly at the hip.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and professional appearance of your jacket, it is essential to follow the care instructions provided. This garment is machine washable, which allows for convenient maintenance; however, we recommend a gentle cycle to prevent the wool fibres from becoming agitated or matted.
Avoid the use of bleach, as harsh chemicals will break down the Lycra fibres and cause the fabric to lose its essential stretch and recovery properties. When drying, it is best to hang the jacket naturally rather than using a tumble dryer, as excessive heat can shrink the wool and damage the internal tailoring components. If pressing is required, use a cool iron to ensure the fabric remains smooth without causing any heat damage to the synthetic fibres.
