The safari jacket has a longer history than most people realise. Born from British military uniforms made for tropical climates in the latter part of the 19th century, it was built for function in harsh conditions — four bellows pockets, a loose fit that allowed air to move, fabric tough enough to last in the field. By the mid-20th century it had found its way onto Hemingway and Clint Eastwood, which tells you everything about how a utilitarian garment becomes a style document.

The Footage Made version is built in Japanese cotton twill — chosen for its weight, durability and the way it holds structure through repeated wear. The tailoring decisions are where this jacket earns its place. Two hidden pockets sit behind the two lower front pockets, accessible through side vents that also keep your hands warm. The belt attaches to the back via two concealed tabs and button loops — it stays where you put it. Vented sleeves open to accommodate an extra layer underneath when the temperature drops. Two back pleats for movement, two back vents, horn buttons throughout.

A jacket designed to be worn constantly and improve with time.

Footage Made is our in-house ready-to-wear line. Tailored in small batches, built to solve specific problems of fit, fabric and function for the way people dress.

Footage Made grew out of twenty years of buying the best of what the world makes. Two decades of sourcing from heritage houses and emerging designers, understanding what separates a considered garment from a convenient one, and developing an eye for the details that determine how something wears over time.

After that long studying premium craft across labels and categories, making our own was the natural next step. Each piece begins with a problem worth solving — fit, fabric, function — developed for the way people actually dress in our part of the world, where seasons run long and the divide between formal and casual has always been narrow.

The work is tailored in small batches by design. Sustainable by practice, considered by necessity. Applying the principles of tailoring to ready-to-wear means fewer compromises on fit and construction, at a price point that reflects the work without the margin of a larger label.
