SYDNEY HARBOUR HERRINGBONE – Handwoven Raw Silk Jacket
A Symphony of Blues. A Tribute to the Harbour.
There’s nothing quite like experiencing Sydney Harbour from the water—not from a postcard, but from the deck of a boat, gliding over deep blue swells between the Harbour Bridge and Manly Wharf. The harbour’s colours shift endlessly, from brilliant sapphire to moody violet, reflecting both the sky above and the city’s heartbeat below.
Inspired by this ever-changing palette, the Sydney Harbour Herringbone Raw Silk Jacket is a favourite among Joe Bananas collectors. A complex herringbone weave blends deep violet, rich indigo, and midnight blue, creating a luxurious depth of tone that mirrors the play of light on the water’s surface.
THE ART OF THE WEAVE
Handwoven Raw Silk – Breathable, textured, and uniquely luxurious.
Shifting Blue & Violet Tones – Reflecting the infinite hues of Sydney Harbour.
Herringbone Weave – A sophisticated structure that adds depth, movement, and elegance.
HOW TO WEAR IT
Dress It Up – Pair with navy wool trousers, a crisp white or light blue dress shirt, and black leather loafers for a refined, maritime-inspired look.
Dress It Down – Style with denim, a soft grey or navy tee, and suede boots for casual elegance with a coastal touch.
LIMITED HANDWOVEN EDITION
Like all Joe Bananas handwoven silk jackets, this piece is a rare collectible, taking 250-300 days to weave. Only a handful exist, each one as unpredictable and stunning as Sydney’s waters at sunrise or dusk.
A STATEMENT OF COASTAL SOPHISTICATION
The Sydney Harbour Herringbone Jacket is more than just a garment—it’s a celebration of Sydney’s most iconic natural wonder, a reminder of the harbour’s timeless beauty, and a testament to bold, effortless style.
Wear the water. Own the horizon.

This cotton shirt is so light and comfortable The fit is perfect for my athlete build I appreciate the staff and Nat is simply amazing with her sense of fashion and style
I had more than 100 business suits. Now retired living in SoCal I have more than 100 Tee Shirts. However after buying my yellow T, I love it so much I bought a pink one, then a white one, and the light blue one is next. My wife recently asked “are you ever going to wear any of your other 100?” I don’t know the answer to that!
This jacket is a unique piece that will let you stand out from the crowd. Material is excellent. Building quality and fit are both excellent. Highly recommend
Wow! Another outstanding shirt by Joe Bananas. I have been buying clothes from Evan for several years and I have been very impressed with his continued creativity and spectacular ability to offer new innovative fashions. The Hubba is a gorgeous shirt that I am thrilled to add to my wardrobe.
Handsome and unique garment. I’ve often said that fitting me is much like dressing a bulldog, not this time, it was a perfect fit out of the box. Thanks JB
My husband loves his Joe Bananas shirt as much as I do. He usually takes a large but we sized down to medium and like the more tailored fit of doing that.
The Joe Bananas store at Fashion Island Newport is like walking into a candy store. Lucked out to be able to meet Eric and appreciated his insight and assistance.
