HOW TO CHOOSE A LINING FOR YOUR JACKET
Have you ever wondered why suit jackets contain a lining? Do they have more benefits than just looking great? If suits were made without linings, they would feel thin to the touch and flimsy. Linings add definition, weight for balance and structure to your jacket.
Your lining is one of the many accouterments that make your custom suit jacket so luxurious. Lining also reduces the potential of your fabric bunching up, keeping your jacket intact and seamless. It buffers a layer of comfort between your shirt and your fabric shell.
Nonetheless, the fun starts where the functionality ends. Bespoke linings amplify the emotional value of your outfit. Very few folks, if any, will see your jacket’s lining. The inside of your jacket has an intimacy factor, similar to the inside of your wallet or pocketbook. These are the cradles used to hold our valuables, our torsos, our money, credit cards, and photos of our loved ones back in the day.
