A Closer Look at Ring Jacket's Balloon Fabric

For the first time, we've made Ring Jacket's famous Balloon fabric available for custom orders.

Developed for Comfort

The idea was to create a fabric with the ease of jersey wool, but without the wrinkling and bagging. The result is what Ring Jacket has come to call 'Balloon'. The 100% wool fabrics are woven with a natural stretch for comfort, but are extremely wrinkle resistant, allowing the jackets to retain their shape. In the years since, Balloon has become a signature of the brand, as a lightweight open-​weave travel cloth.

Woven in Japan

Woven exclusively for Ring Jacket, these fabrics use a combination of Australian and British yarns. The super high-twist creates a unique natural stretch, with an almost mesh-like structure.

Made for You

We've been a fan of the 'Balloon' fabrics for years, often including it in our seasonal collections. We're excited to be offering these fabrics. with both our made-to-order and made-to-measure programs for a limited time. Our full range of The Armoury by Ring Jacket tailoring models are available to be commissioned using these three staple cloths, through the end of August 2023.
