CHARCOAL PAPERBARK – Handwoven Raw Silk Jacket
Forged in Fire. Refined in Silk.
In the heart of the Australian summer, bushfires leave their mark on the land, yet from the ashes, our native flora regenerates, thriving in the wake of destruction. What remains is charcoal—an element of transformation, resilience, and renewal, rich in depth and texture.
The Charcoal Paperbark Raw Silk Jacket takes inspiration from this cycle of rebirth, weaving the deep, natural sheen of charcoal silk into the intricate paperbark weave. The result? A jacket that shifts with the light, exuding a quiet power and undeniable sophistication. This is a modern interpretation of formal elegance, with just enough edge to command attention—the kind of jacket that would complement Bond on an evening out.
Handwoven over 200-300 days, with only 8-10 jackets per weave, this piece is crafted for those who appreciate bold refinement and effortless confidence.
Handwoven raw silk – structured, luxurious, and full of depth.
Paperbark weave with a natural sheen – enhancing light and movement.
Refined yet striking – equally at home in formal or high-stakes settings.
Like charcoal left behind after fire, this jacket is a reminder that strength comes from reinvention. Extremely limited—secure yours before it smoulders away.

Washing Care
Let customers speak for us
They fit just right. They have a nice look and cut which helps it go with different shirts.
I don't like shopping for clothes online. When shopping at a store for clothing I normally try to minimize my time in the store. Since I am an XY, I like to have a clear idea of what I want before entering a store. After viewing the window display at Joe Bananas my wife (XX) insisted that I try on some clothing in attempt to improve my personal selection of antiquated and worn clothing. With low expectations I tried Joe Bananas. However, my shopping experience was excellent. I know I sound like I'm XX! But, the conversation with the staff was engaging and entertaining. I left the store with excellent clothing that was comfortable and garnered rave reviews from my friends both XX and XY.
I have JB chinos from a few years ago and the fabric feels richer, more texture, more weight.
Love this suit - my second one from JoeBanana's over the past few months. I have received several compliments and have only worn once. What is amazing is the ease of care - I travel often and the suits and jackets look amazing after being in my luggage. Also, Nat in the Newport Beach store is amazing - I will stop by just to say hi. These guys are great.
