Elk - Minnen Print Jacket - Space Blue

The Minnen Jacket is a classic piece crafted from French linen. This seasonal hero stands out with its unique design, featuring a statement collar with pointed peaks, yoke detailing at the back and wide sleeve cuffs closed with buttons. 

• Crafted from French linen, a natural fibre that softens with wear 
• Classic navy linen
• Unlined with linen bound seams
• Manufactured at a factory sourcing up to 50% of its electricity from rooftop solar
• This design is part of the conscious edit

Linen grown in France follows more traditional methods of growing and processing. For example, the crop is stripped back to prepare it for textiles using a dew-retting process. Dew-retting makes use of natural sunlight and dew to soften the crop, rather than using intensive chemical or water processes.

Manufacturer: Jimmy Fashions
Fabric Mill: Tongling Worldbest Linen & Ramie

We have been working with Jimmy Fashions since 2010. They are a smaller, independent supplier with a focus on design and quality, and this is one of our longest standing supplier relationships. With owner Jimmy Shen and his team working closely with our Design and Production departments, this family-owned business has grown with ELK and now supplies much of our woven apparel. 

In early 2024, the Jimmy had solar panels installed on the rooftop of the factory, to help provide renewable energy for their operations. The factory also undergoes annual SMETA social compliance audits, which are conducted by a third party and provide transparency into worker wellbeing and wages. 

We have been sourcing our linen fabric from Tongling Worldbest for many years. This fabric mill is certified under the OEKO-TEX 100 Standard, ensuring the fabric is free from harmful substances. 

The Minnen Jacket is a regular fit through the bust, shoulders, and hem opening. Whilst not a cropped style, the Minnen Jacket is slightly shorter than standard body length.

Key fit points for the garment are the bust, hem opening, and length.

All garments are measured flat (not on body) and then doubled (except the length) to calculate the total circumference. To work out what size will suit you best, flat measure an item that fits you well and use this as a guide. Please contact us if you have any questions or need more information.
