Product Overview
The Brook Taverner Cassino Slim Fit Jacket is a refined piece of tailoring designed for the modern professional who requires both style and substance. Part of the Sophisticated Collection, this single-breasted jacket features a contemporary slim fit and a slightly shorter length, providing a sharp silhouette that moves away from traditional, bulky corporate wear. The two-button front and slim lapels are complemented by meticulous saddle stitching, offering a bespoke feel that elevates any corporate uniform.
Key Features
- Slim Fit Construction: The shorter length and tapered cut provide a modern, professional appearance that suits a wide range of body types while maintaining a tailored look.
- High-Quality Fabric Blend: Utilising a mix of wool, polyester, and LYCRA®, the jacket offers a balance of natural breathability, durability, and essential stretch.
- Functional Detailing: Includes a traditional ticket pocket and side vents, which allow for greater freedom of movement and ease of access during active shifts.
- Premium Interior Finish: The piano-faced interior with slim pocket jets demonstrates a commitment to quality craftsmanship that is visible both inside and out.
- Practical Maintenance: Despite its high wool content, the jacket is fully machine washable, making it a practical choice for daily professional use.
Design & Performance
Engineered for the demands of a busy working environment, the Cassino jacket is crafted from a medium-weight fabric that provides year-round comfort. The inclusion of 44% wool ensures a natural drape and temperature regulation, while the 54% polyester content adds significant crease resistance and longevity to the garment. The addition of 2% LYCRA® Elastane is a technical necessity, providing the flexibility required for a slim-fit garment to remain comfortable throughout a full day of wear. This combination ensures the jacket retains its shape even after repeated cleaning and heavy use.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The smooth, high-quality finish of this wool-blend fabric provides an excellent canvas for customisation. For a sophisticated and professional appearance, we recommend embroidery. Our Telford-based team, with expertise dating back to 1976, can precision-stitch company logos or staff names onto the chest or sleeve, creating a permanent and high-end finish. While print is an option for bolder branding, embroidery typically complements the tailored nature of the Cassino jacket more effectively, ensuring your brand is represented with the same level of quality as the garment itself.
Use Cases
This jacket is ideally suited for front-of-house roles in the hospitality industry, corporate office environments, and management teams. Its sharp, modern aesthetic also makes it a popular choice for event staff and security personnel who require a smart, authoritative presence without compromising on mobility.

Practical Advice
As this is a slim-fit jacket with a shorter length, we recommend checking your measurements against our size guide to ensure the desired silhouette. If you are layering this jacket over a medium-weight knit or a traditional formal shirt, you may wish to consider how the tailored cut will sit over these layers to ensure maximum comfort during the working day.
Caring for your product
To preserve the tailored structure and finish of your jacket, it is essential to follow the machine-washable guidelines provided. Regular washing at the appropriate temperature prevents the accumulation of environmental oils that can break down the wool fibres over time.
Avoid the use of bleach or aggressive biological detergents, as these chemicals can degrade the LYCRA® components, eventually causing the jacket to lose its shape and elasticity. Keeping the garment away from harsh chemicals ensures the navy check pattern remains vibrant.
When drying, we suggest hanging the jacket on a shaped hanger to air dry. Tumble drying should be avoided where possible to prevent shrinkage and to protect the internal piano facing. If ironing is necessary, use a cool iron to avoid scorching the fabric or creating an unwanted shine on the surface.
