Most canvassed, structured tailoring can't survive a washing machine — the interlinings, padding, and hand-pressing that give a jacket its shape all come apart when soaked and tumbled. Whitcomb & Shaftesbury built a fully bespoke jacket engineered to take exactly that, which quietly removes the one thing that makes proper tailoring feel too precious to actually wear through a hot summer.
