Men's Brushed Cotton Sack Coat

Our Brushed Cotton Sack Coat is the perfect choice for nearly every 19th-century situation. Fashioned with a 100% cotton shell and 100% polyester lining, this garment is designed to transport you to a bygone era and showcase the latest in men's fashion.

Don't let the name "sack" fool you - this coat is anything but loose or oversized. The term "sacque cut" refers to the specific way the two-piece back is pieced and tailored together, resulting in a trim and tailored silhouette.

Featuring a soft, brushed-cotton finish, the sack coat boasts a rounded hem, a notched collar, and four buttons that fasten up the front, ending in high lapels. While there are no outer pockets, the interior offers a breast pocket and a hidden ticket pocket, providing functional storage options.

Wondering about the origins of this style? The sack coat gained popularity over the longer and dressier frock coat, and by the 1870s, it had become the standard attire for conducting business and casual recreational pursuits. In a way, the sack coat was a wearable rebellion against the formal and fussy traditions of the time.

Our version of the Brushed Cotton Sack Coat captures the essence of the late 19th century, with its high-button front that was often worn fastened just at the top to let a vest show through below. Other notable design details include a notched collar, an unvented back (to maintain the trim shape), decorative seaming, and three buttons at each cuff.

To complete your historically inspired look, pair our Brushed Cotton Sack Coat with our selection of Dress Shirts, Neckties, Vests, and Trousers, all available in our storefront.

When it comes to sizing, our coats are made with typical American sizing, meaning your chest measurement (in inches) is the size you should choose. To measure your chest, raise your arms slightly and measure just under your arms, ensuring to cross over the shoulder blades and the fullest part of the chest. If your belly measures larger than your chest, use your belly measurement for the coat size.

Whether you're attending to your daily agenda, from meetings in town to a train trip to the shore, our Brushed Cotton Sack Coat is comfortably appropriate for everything but the most formal events. Be part of the 19th century's buzz and banter by wearing this timeless and stylish garment.

So, step back in time and show off the latest in men's fashion with our Brushed Cotton Sack Coat. Dry cleaning is recommended to maintain the quality and appearance of this exceptional piece.
