BRIXTOL TEXTILES X MONOCLE MAGAZINE
The Goods Agency brought together one of the world’s most thoughtful outerwear and lifestyle product creators with arguably the world’s most influential media and brand platform, to collaborate on the Swedish brands iconic JAMES waxed-cotton jacket.
Inspired by the mod culture of the 1960s, when teenagers would zip up and down the UK on Lambrettas and Vespas, Swedish brand Brixtol Textiles has drawn on the best of British workwear for this waxed, organic-cotton jacket. Made in England in a light moss colour, the piece features corduroy on the collar and inside cuff, and sports a water-resistant shell. The water resistance is reached through the tradition of waxing the fabric. The material in the buttons are made from recycled metal derived from post-consumer surgical instruments.
