Description

Jacob is not your average long sleeve polo shirt. Jacob is a lightweight Sea Island Cotton knit, grown and spun in the British West Indies before being knitted and garment dyed in Europe. Sea Island Cotton fibres are cultivated exclusively on the British West Indies Islands in the Caribbean where the tropical climate produces what are considered the most luxurious cotton fibres in the world. An incredibly durable garment, the fabric is considered the strongest naturally grown cotton in the world which means it will resist wear and last a lifetime. The definition of a luxurious investment. The fabric also has an unrivalled softness as the long staple yarns create a smooth and silky surface. This is not cotton as you know it. Featuring a ribbed collar, mother of pearl buttons, knitted back neck tape to minimise stretching and tubular knit hem and cuffs, the devil really is in the detail with our Jacob collection. Sea Island Cotton comes from the seed of the Gossypium Barbadense plant which produces the longest fibres in the world with pile lengths of more than 50mm. Genuine Sea Island Cotton is the rarest type of cotton, making up less than 0.0004 percent of the world's cotton production. The West Indian Sea Island Cotton Association (WISICA) inspects and certifies every kilogram of locally produced cotton and the hologram on our swing tag is a sign of 100% authentic Sea Island Cotton. The model is 6'2" / 188cm tall with waist size 30.5” / 78cm, chest size 39” / 97cm. He wears a size Medium.
