Just arrived. The Highland Jacket is my favorite piece from the spring AETHER collection, developed by FYI. It's a waxed cotton shell with a slick nylon lining. It's made in Canada with premium materials, like Pittard's perforated leather from the U.K. , and polished zippers from Riri in Switzerland.
The Highland uses a 'busted seam' construction, and a double topstitch so that the seams lay flat. I really like the contrast stitch as it gives character to the cut lines.
