INSPIRATION:
The iconic Red-Bellied Black Snake (RBBS), whose scales provide the inspiration for this unique Joe Bananas tapestry, is one of the most frequently encountered snakes across Australia. Their native habitat extends nearly the entire length of the east coast of Australia, as well as up to 500km inland. Like Australian people, these snakes love the sun and the water.
The RBBS is an incredibly shy snake and will freeze to avoid detection, allowing humans to get uncomfortably close. Given its intimidating appearance and rotund body, especially when stationary, it is sadly vulnerable to humans wielding shovels and shot guns. RBBS will naturally retreat when threatened but when overwhelmed, can defend themselves with a very painful, yet rarely lethal venomous bite.
This weave brings the RBBS out of the shadows and celebrates its unique scales for all to see.
DRESS IT UP OR DOWN: For daytime wear with navy chinos or dark denim, go for soft blues and lilacs beneath the jacket. To make it all about the jacket, black trousers or chinos with dress shoes, black or white, or black and white printed shirt.
CURIOUS FACT: When threatened or evading predators, including humans, RBBS are known to enter water and even stay fully submerged for up to 20 minutes.

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
