FAQ

Which traditional jacket suits which occasion?

For festive occasions such as weddings, elegant loden jackets or vests with traditional details are ideal. For everyday wear or folk festivals, a knitted cardigan or modern boiled wool jacket works perfectly – depending on your preferred style.

What is the difference between a Janker, a cardigan, and a gilet?

A Janker is usually made of loden, has a classic cut, and is very durable. Knitted cardigans have a more casual look and are ideal for cooler days. A gilet (vest) is sleeveless and great for festive or warmer days – often worn as an addition to a shirt.

How do I properly care for my traditional jacket?

Knitted cardigans can usually be washed at 30 °C on a wool cycle. Loden or leather jackets, however, should be professionally cleaned. Gilets made of delicate fabrics should also be professionally treated – always check the care label first.

Can I wear a traditional jacket in everyday life?

Yes, especially cardigans or simple Jankers pair wonderfully with jeans and a shirt – for a modern country-style everyday look. Gilets also look great with chinos or cotton trousers.

How do I find the right size for my traditional jacket?

It’s important that the jacket fits well across the shoulders and allows enough freedom of movement – especially if you wear a shirt or vest underneath. Our size chart in the shop will help you choose the right fit.
