What to know about Circolo 1901

A blazer built like a sweatshirt

The signature Easy Jacket rebuilds the tailored blazer in stretch cotton jersey and fleece, cut to look like tailoring but machine washable.

Printed to imitate woven cloth

Jersey is often printed to mimic denim, linen or check weaves, so the fabric reads as traditional suiting at a glance while behaving like knitwear.

Textile family, boutique distribution

Founded in 2008 in Apulia by knitted-fabric industrialist Gennaro Dargenio, still independent, and sold through roughly 1,200 multi-brand boutiques in 25-plus countries.
