Product Overview
The Brook Taverner Ferdinand Double Breasted Jacket is a sophisticated staple for any professional wardrobe, combining classic tailoring with modern textile technology.

Key Features
Tailored fit: Provides a sharp, contoured silhouette that ensures a professional appearance without restricting movement.
Six-button front: A classic double-breasted design that offers a timeless, authoritative look for front-of-house or executive roles.
Extensive storage: Features two jetted pockets with flaps and three internal jetted pockets, providing ample space for essential items such as pens, cards, or mobile devices.
Twin rear vents: These allow for greater ease of movement and prevent the jacket from bunching when seated.
Darts on front: Strategically placed to enhance the jacket's structure and maintain its shape over long periods of wear.
Design & Performance
The performance of the Ferdinand jacket is rooted in its sophisticated fabric blend. Comprising 64% polyester—of which 30% is recycled—it offers exceptional durability and resistance to creasing. The inclusion of 34% viscose provides a soft, breathable finish that feels comfortable against the skin, while the 2% LYCRA® Elastane ensures a high level of stretch. This 14% stretch capability means the jacket moves with the wearer, reducing fatigue during long shifts. The substantial weight of the fabric ensures it drapes elegantly, maintaining a crisp look from morning until evening.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This jacket is an excellent candidate for customisation, particularly embroidery. A finely stitched company logo or staff name on the chest provides a superior, professional finish that complements the formal nature of the double-breasted design. For larger, more distinctive branding, our high-quality print options are also available.
All customisation is managed by our expert in-house team at our Telford facility. With nearly five decades of experience, established in 1976, we ensure that every stitch or print meets the exacting standards your brand deserves.
Use Cases
The Ferdinand jacket is ideally suited for client-facing roles where a formal impression is paramount. It is a preferred choice for hotel management, corporate receptionists, and professionals in the legal or financial sectors. Its durable construction also makes it a practical option for event staff who require a uniform that remains sharp under pressure.

Practical Advice
This jacket features a centre back length of 74cm (based on a size 40R), which provides standard coverage. When selecting your size, consider the layers you intend to wear underneath; the tailored fit is designed to sit neatly over a dress shirt. For a complete professional look, pair this with trousers from the same collection to ensure a consistent colour match.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and professional finish of your jacket, it is essential to follow the machine-washing instructions carefully. This garment is designed for convenience but requires proper handling to ensure it does not lose its tailored structure.
When washing, ensure you use a cycle appropriate for synthetic blends. Failing to do so can lead to the breakdown of the LYCRA fibres over time, resulting in a loss of the jacket's stretch properties and a compromised fit. Proper laundering also ensures that any custom embroidery or print remains vibrant and securely attached to the fabric.
Avoid using bleach, as this will degrade the polyester and viscose blend, causing discolouration and weakening the fabric's strength. Similarly, avoid high-heat drying methods; excessive heat can warp the internal structure of the jacket and damage the crispness of the lapels and seams.
