CO-80: A deep black, made using Kaduka (Myrobalan) and Iron.

A relaxed, boxy ‘soft tailored’ jacket made from a handwoven cotton-hemp blend and completely naturally dyed using roots, bark, leaves, minerals, and other plant-based ingredients. No synthetic dyes, no artificial ageing, no shortcuts. Just time, plants, and continual experimentation.

The Isil Jacket is cut slightly cropped with an easy oversized shape, designed to feel relaxed rather than formal. Details include patch pockets, two internal pockets, a chest welt pocket, a three-button opening with corozo buttons, including a single flower button, and a classic notch lapel.

R.T.S. pieces always feel especially alive to us because they keep changing. The colours shift subtly with sunlight, washing, wear, and age. They soften, fade, crease, and develop in ways that are impossible to fully predict or repeat. 

The result is something that feels earthy, slightly imperfect, and genuinely personal over time.

Designed as a suit with the matching Astari Trousers, they’re easy and versatile. The kind of suit you can wear to the pub, to dinner, travelling, or every day with a hoodie underneath.

Not really for job interviews? Unless it’s for the sickest job ever (like a rebel beekeeper? Or something at Story mfg.??)

Please note: the fabric begins quite stiff and will soften over time with wear and movement. If you buy they will seem quite rigid at first, especially the darker colours where the dye creates more stiffness. Also, the jackets come up quite large, so we would recommend taking a size down, but if any Q’s, email us at [email protected]
