Rubinacci "London House" Light Blue Shetland-Tweed Herringbone Jacket
Discover the Rubinacci “London House” jacket, tailored from a light blue Shetland tweed woven in a bold herringbone pattern. The cloth is rich in character, with a slightly coarse texture and a bicolour weave that gives subtle depth and variation to the cool blue tones. It is fully lined and cut in Rubinacci’s unmistakable Neapolitan silhouette, featuring soft spalla camicia shoulders, patch pockets, a two-button closure and handmade buttonholes that speak to the house’s artisanal roots.
The name “London House” is more than a stylistic reference. It traces back to the original atelier opened by Gennaro Rubinacci in Naples during the 1930s, a space that served as both tailoring workshop and cultural salon. There, Rubinacci developed a new approach to menswear by blending British structure with the softer, more natural lines of Southern Italian craftsmanship. English cloths like Shetland tweed were reimagined through the relaxed Neapolitan cut, forming the foundation of what would become the modern Italian style.
This jacket continues that tradition with quiet confidence. Handcrafted with precision, it balances the weight and heritage of Shetland wool with a construction that feels easy and wearable. The shoulders are unpadded, the lapel naturally rolled, and every detail considered without being fussy. It is a piece built on history, but made for the present.
