Optimised for blustery summer outings, the Checkered Shell Jacket from Gramicci is as unfussy and straightforwardly functional as they come. It's cut from crisp lightweight nylon taslan that'll block gusts, and features raglan sleeves for freedom of movement, a triptych of pockets and a drawcord hem to help cinch in the fit and lock in heat, respectively. The checkered pattern is quite the visual tonic as well.
