What is the best canvas jacket?

To find the ideal piece that will accompany you every day, let yourself be guided by the traditional cuts and careful details that make our reputation. At Mousqueton, we are committed to giving life to authentic clothing by favoring natural materials and great strength, like our 100% cotton canvas. 

The cotton canvas: the robust and timeless elegance of your marine wardrobe

Designed to offer lightness, this fabric full of character is ideal for both men and women in search of everyday comfort. Thanks to its breathable characteristics, it allows air to circulate freely while offering you effective protection against the elements.

Whether you opt for a light canvas with a subtly faded look for a casual look, or for a deep navy blue, the timeless color par excellence, this piece blends harmoniously with your wardrobe. To assert your style on a daily basis, feel free to wear it as a wide jacket over a white t-shirt for an authentic look, or pair it with linen pants and a shirt for a more casual look.

The details that make the difference

At Mousqueton, we are committed to giving life to each piece under all its seams to offer you a garment that resembles you and accompanies you faithfully.

For example, our jackets incorporate multiple cleverpockets, ideal for slipping in your essentials and keeping your hands free during your escapades. To face the breezes, wrap yourself in a warmly lined hood or adjust it perfectly to your face thanks to its drawstrings!

And to permanently block the fresh air currents, simply lift the snap button collar: a practical, clever gesture, validated by our in-house stylist! These small details shape the character of our creations and make your daily life easier.

Waterproof or water-repellent: the choice of flexibility in the face of bad weather

In the face of the weather’s vagaries, choosing between a fully waterproof rain jacket and water-repellent clothing defines your level of protection outdoors. If total impermeability establishes an effective barrier against heavy showers thanks to the waterproofing of its fabric, this type of model sometimes lacks breathability during your activities or active walks. On the other hand, a water-repellent cotton canvas jacket gives you precious freedom of movement, letting drops of water slide while accompanying your movements with flexibility.

Mousqueton’s opinion: This clever treatment allows your garment to retain all its strength and authenticity. Worked with care, our water-repellent fabric breathes with you, avoiding the unpleasant greenhouse effect of plastics. You stay protected from the little rains and fresh breezes without ever sacrificing your comfort, whether for a sporty outing or a simple stroll in the city.

Our customers' frequently asked questions Mousqueton

To choose the ideal size, take your usual size: the traditional cut is designed to be worn loose, without ever hindering your movements. Our model is aimed at both men and women.

This model will perfectly integrate with other pieces of your wardrobe, combining style and comfort on a daily basis. A white t-shirt tucked under will give you an authentic and assertive look, while a linen shirt or a polo will offer you a more relaxed look. Complete your outfit with chino pants or raw jeans, and add a canvas bag as an essential accessory to perfect your everyday look.

A wash at 30°C is enough to revive its color without damaging it. Let it dry in the open air, making sure not to put it in direct sunlight, and avoid drying to preserve all the flexibility of its fabric.
