Flax London's Linen Railway Jacket: An Offer to Readers
I've introduced you to Flax London on Instagram but, inexplicably, haven't yet spoken about this young brand here on the blog. As their name suggests, they manufacture (here in the UK) clothing made from linen, a product of the flax plant. Having started out by selling with shirts, they are this week launching pre-orders for their Railway Jacket that comes in heavy textured linen in three colours - and followers of this blog are offered a generous discount on pre-orders for a limited time (see below).
Overshirt, work jacket or unbelted safari? The Railway Jacket fills all these roles. As you can see from the pictures below, I've tried it in all three colours, pale green (really cream with a slight pistachio tinge), navy blue and red. I will give details of their outstanding quality and construction on Grey Fox Blog Instagram (please follow me there). They are beautifully made (in North London), with some nice details, from 500gsm (15oz) 100% Irish linen.
I'm wearing a brand new medium in the images and the fit is excellent. Linen has the property of softening with wear and improving in looks. The heavier weight (by which I mean heavier than shirt cloth) linen gives the jacket great versatility for all but chilly weather. Linen's comfort, breathability and attractively textured appearance makes it useful for both both casual and formal wear: try it with a linen shirt and chinos, t-shirt and jeans or tailored trousers and a tie (I'll be wearing it that way).
Flax London's Railway Jackets will have a retail cost of £235. However, Flax London are offering Grey Fox readers a 15% discount on pre-orders until 16th April 2019 (discounted cost £199.75). Discount code FLAXGFB at Flax London's website. Pre-ordered jackets will be delivered during the first week of May.
Note: I was sent a jacket for review and am uncompensated for this post. I support selected young British brands like Flax London at my own expense. You can, if you wish, support Grey Fox Blog by contributing through Paypal greyfoxblogATgmailDOTcom
