Known to Sydney’s original inhabitants, the Eora as ‘Mat-te-wan-ye’, the island which is now known as Fort Denison was originally a prominent sandstone monolith standing approximately 49 feet (15m) directly out of the middle of Sydney Harbour, close to Sydney Cove. Both its prominence and proximity to the first European settlement in Australia, in the nearby cove were the cause and justification for its transformation. Soon after settlement the giant rock was quickly broken up into sandstone bricks and hurled back into the harbour to construct the port, Circular Quay, a stone’s throw from The Rocks, where Joe Bananas Australian Flagship is situated.
As a prison and later as a military fortification, Fort Denison was ironically rebuilt of sandstone which came from the Harbour’s North Shore but the vision of its forgotten history is the inspiration for this weave. As it once rose from the Harbour, the sandy peaks of this herringbone weave rise and fall, weaving a timeless classic piece of our collection.
DRESS IT UP: White linen trousers, white linen shirt, white sneakers and don’t forget your sunhat.
DRESS IT DOWN: An earthy or tonal printed shirt and a pair of our finest Newport Yacht Club silk twill trousers will set you sailing in this jacket.
FUN FACT: Completed in 1857, the defensive fortification of Fort Denison is the only Martello Tower ever constructed in Australia and the last ever undertaken within the former British Empire.

Let customers speak for us
If your looking for style and comfort these are the garments for you. Thank you for your store being open for us.
I've been sporting Joe's shirts for quite a few years, and had a good idea of what to expect: an outlandishly spectacular garment. Which I'll have to wait some months to wear, for the British winter is beginning. Evan calmly and efficiently sorted out glitches with the delivery, for which I give thanks.
Wonderful jacket with a great unique style and color! Excellent quality, and it both looks and feels great!
The shirt is beautiful and it fit perfectly. I ordered a Large even though I am a true Extra Large. I received great service from both the USA (Nat) and Australia (Wayne) which was appreciated. Thank you.
It is such a pleasure to have custom products ordered and delivered as promised with no fanfare or issues. Joe Bananas is an incredible organization that provides over the top customer service and follow up. They set the bar for others to attempt to reach for product quality, service, attention to detail and going above and beyond the requirements that consumers have and desire. Thank you for what you do!
Incredibly Outstanding 10 stars
Joe Banana’s is by far the best Mens store in Newport Beach. My wife surprised me with the Harbour Herringbone jacket as a present as we get ready for a European vacation. The jacket can be worn with multiple colored mocks, it’s light, and like all of Joe’s creations, you WILL stand out in a crowd. Bravo!!
This suit looks amazing. I ordered it from Ev for my daughter’s wedding next week and really looking forward to showcasing it on the big day. Great colour. Great material. Great fit.
The linen dress shirt I bought is impeccable and tailored perfectly. The service at Joe B is top notch and they take their time helping their clients make decisions.
I have been wearing Joe Banana chinos for many years. This pair is one of the new style. Too often changing to a new style ruins a product for me. This is not the case with the newer chinos. I am very pleased with the pants.
The legs are a bit more tailored, but are not tight. The material is a high quality cotton. The waist has a bit of elastic in it, but is still comfortable. The only change that I noticed is that I needed to size down one size, from a 36 to a 34. My older paired still fit the same, so there must be something in the new design that changed the waist size that I wear.
Found them in Sydney many years ago great to have a store in Fashion Island fabrics and patterns are one of a kind
