AK MC Navy Wool Double-Breasted Portofino Jacket

This fresh and enticing new Portofino jacket is handcrafted from a personally selected lightweight wool in a family-owned artisanal workshop in Puglia, Italy, and is cut shorter to abide by AK MC’s distinctive casual template. Deliberately constructed to tastefully expose one’s figure, it’s only gracefully transmitted when pairing it with an abundance of AK MC designs, with the Perfect jeans, Gurkha trousers, Bengal stripe shirt, suede Belgian loafers, Venetian slippers and, last but not least, a silk gentleman’s pocket square.

The half-canvas and partially lined interior allow for enhanced freedom of movement – a delectable virtue when descending to Portofino’s La Piazzetta after lunch at the famous and paradisiacal Belmond Hotel Splendido.

This Portofino model, with its high armholes and roped shoulders, exemplifies skilled handiwork and becomes a semblance of refinement. However, the addition of white mother-of-pearl buttons in a 6×2 configuration on the front, situated below the wide-peaked lapels, subtly enhances one’s flamboyant features.

In sync with the jacket’s laid-back de luxe guise, it features patch pockets without flaps, while the four white mother-of-pearl working cuff buttons do add a touch of Riviera panache to your sociable summer endeavours.

The ‘handful’ of lore that describes the Portus Delphini moniker includes the idea that the peninsula’s silhouette against the Ligurian Sea mirrors the graceful arc of a dolphin. “Handful” is also as advised by natives that no more groups can be accommodated. The new navy double-breasted Portofino jacket is named after the spellbinding coastal retreat noted for its beauty, and is destined to become instinctively climatised with the style elite who spend summer months on the Riviera de Levante.
