Uptown Jacket This tidy little jacket was based on one I bought in New York (hence the name). Like the original, it is a raglan with a little half-hourglass shaping, short full sleeves, a wide front band, and a collar. Unlike the original, it has texture! Its closed measurements make it quite snug, but I prefer to wear it with only the top one or two buttons closed. This gives it a jaunty asymmetry—plus extra girth.
