The Lodge Jacket in Red / Black Plaid

DESCRIPTION

A buffalo plaid jacket in a vegan wool blend, brushed to a heavyweight flannel hand - the classic lumberjack silhouette in a material with no animal harm. The centre-front zipper uses a magnetic closure system, no insert-pin fumble, no looking down.

FEATURES

√ Auto-Align Magnetic Zipper

No manual pin-and-box engagement, operable with one hand, through gloves, or with limited grip strength.

√ Bold Buffalo Plaid

The red-and-black block check runs across the jacket, with precise pattern matching at every seam for an uninterrupted finish.

√ Four-Pocket Configuration

Two flush chest welt pockets sit above two larger hidden magnetic-closure button-flap pockets at the lower.

√ Vegan Wool Blend

A high-density vegan wool-look blend, brushed to a soft heavyweight nap with the warmth of wool, without animal harm.

√ Cycle-Tested for Outerwear Weight

The magnetic zip is rated for thousands of open-close cycles, holding through wind and movement without resisting a deliberate pull.

DETAILS

Design intent

Heavy wool jackets share the same friction point - a stiff zipper that demands two hands and careful alignment, especially in cold weather or with gloves. The Lodge Jacket solves this trouble: a magnetic zipper shifts alignment from the wearer’s fingers to magnets at the zipper base that can automatically find each other - in a vegan wool blend that asks nothing further of the animal world to get there.

Design inspiration

Red-and-black buffalo plaid has defined North American outdoor dress since the late 19th century, valued first for visibility in dense forest before becoming a style in its own right. The point collar, double chest welt pockets, and lower flap pockets reference the original logging-camp jacket - built for work and layering. The Lodge Jacket keeps that silhouette, translated into a vegan wool blend with no animal inputs.

Craft details

High-density vegan wool blend in classic red-and-black buffalo plaid, brushed to the visual depth and warmth of Mackinaw wool. Structured point collar, chest welt pockets, and flap hip pockets sit on a clean back with a horizontal yoke seam. The Magnetic Zipper system aligns both sides on contact - no insert-pin step, one-handed from open to closed. Components are encapsulated and rated through thousands of cycles and temperature variations.
