When Critt started the Crittenden line over 20 years ago, two things drove him: providing a great quality product at a truly unheard-of value by cutting out some of the high markups that he felt other brands misused, and finding the most unique and high quality fabrics at the best price. Critt was ahead of his time, as usual, in heading to Asia to examine the quality of products available in certain regions. Along the way he found an abundance of gorgeous silk fabrics he hadn't seen used in American tailored clothing, and so began the story of our number one best-selling coat, the Crittenden Signature Silk & Linen Jacket. An exclusive fabric developed by Critt in his favorite mill, our proprietary silk and linen formula is a proven winner for its lightness, soft handle, and breathability. Along with our true French-facing (unlined except for piped seams, sleeves and butterfly yoke) and soft construction, this fabric makes for a sportcoat thats nearly as light as a shirt. In Spring/Summer you will always find 3, 4, or more brights and neutrals, along with trousers and vests, to make a suit or mix with other warm weather staples. As we say, you may have a navy blazer, but if you live in a warmer climate, are headed to a summer wedding or on a sharp summer holiday, this is the navy blazer you need. It's our number-one seller for summer grooms and groomsmen, fathers of the bride/groom, graduations and any summer special occasion. Truly the only problem with our Silk & Linen is getting your hands on it, as it sells out quickly. Never fear, though: we will have it in stock year-round, starting this summer..
