Description
The Lisbon Jacket is a stylish, lightweight layer for the transition seasons. This unlined, knee-length jacket has dropped shoulders and long sleeves that taper to a generous hem which can be cuffed for a relaxed, modern look. Designer features are highlighted by topstitching and include the notched collar, wide single-welt pockets with bound pocket bags, and a deep, stitched-down back facing. Look for an interesting, medium-weight fabric with texture and body to make up this easy-to-wear jacket.
