The jacket that has been earned, not bought.

Le Velours

Le Velours — the corduroy, the velvet — is named for the fabric that defines it. Corduroy — velours côtelé — is the ribbed fabric that has moved through the history of menswear with the quiet authority of something that does not need to announce itself. A thick corduroy slim-fit jacket in Khaki, single-breasted, lapel collar, side pockets. Five sizes, M to 3XL. One principle: the jacket that is made from corduroy is the jacket that improves with every season it is worn.

The Fabric

Corduroy — velours côtelé, literally “ribbed velvet” — is the fabric that gives Le Velours its character. The parallel ribs — called wales — run vertically down the fabric and create a surface that catches the light differently depending on the direction of the nap. Viewed from one angle, the corduroy reads as deep and textured; viewed from another, it reads as smooth and dimensional. The thick corduroy construction of Le Velours gives the jacket its weight and its warmth — the kind of fabric that feels substantial in the hand and structured on the body. Khaki corduroy is the colourway that has defined the heritage jacket for generations: the warm, earthy tone that works with every trouser in the wardrobe and every season in the calendar.

The Construction

Slim fit, single-breasted, lapel collar — coupe slim, simple boutonnage, col à revers — is the construction that gives Le Velours its modernity. The slim fit follows the body without restriction: the shoulder sits precisely, the chest closes cleanly, and the body tapers through the torso with the precision of a jacket that was cut to be worn rather than displayed. The lapel collar frames the face and the chest with the authority of a classic jacket construction. The side sewn insert pockets — poches latérales — are functional and finished: the kind of pocket that holds what it needs to hold without disrupting the slim silhouette.

Colour

Khaki — The heritage colourway. Khaki Le Velours is the corduroy jacket in the tone that has defined the heritage jacket for generations — the warm, earthy, military-adjacent tone that works with dark trousers, light trousers, denim, and everything between. Khaki corduroy is the combination that reads as considered and timeless in equal measure. The man in Khaki Le Velours is the man who dresses with the confidence of someone who has already decided — and decided correctly.

Size Guide

Tip: Le Velours is cut slim by design. If between sizes or if you prefer a more relaxed fit over a thick knitwear layer, size up one. The slim fit reads best when the shoulder seam sits precisely at the shoulder point and the chest closes without pulling.

Care Instructions

• Dry clean recommended — preserve the corduroy rib structure and Khaki depth
• If machine washing: cold water, gentle cycle, inside out — protect the nap direction
• Do not tumble dry — air dry flat to maintain the slim fit shape and corduroy structure
• Brush gently with a soft clothes brush to restore the nap after wear
• Store hanging to preserve the lapel collar and jacket silhouette

Styling Note

Le Velours is the jacket that anchors the look. Wear it over Le Fin or Le Demi for the full Millivan layered knitwear approach — the slim fit of Le Velours sits cleanly over a slim knit without adding bulk. Wear it over a plain white or black tee for the most effortless single-layer approach. Khaki works with dark navy or black trousers for the most considered look; with dark denim for the most casual; with chinos in a complementary earth tone for the most heritage-correct. Le Velours is built for the man who understands that corduroy is not a fabric — it is a position.
