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.

Evan and his staff did a fantastic job hooking me up with the perfect t-shirts for my trip to Miami!
Love it. Fits perfectly unlike other online orders I’ve made.

This, by far, is the best suit I have owned. I travelled from the US to Spain and France and had to pack in my suitcase - a quick shake and it looked as good as new. This is now my favorite suit and plan on a couple more! On a side note, Evan actually delivered my suit to me at the airport in California - Nat, my salesperson one of the top professionals I have dealt with. Just going to their store is an adventure and I plan on going back just to visit.
As always, Joe comes through with a great shirt and a wonderful color. And it feels good on your body!
I love the people I met and their knowledge of the product how apassionate they are about the product. I bought a beautiful unique shirt. Service was great.
As always, Joe B delivers on distinct and interesting items!
Beautiful fabric. Perfectly tailored. Love it!
I'm very selective with the fit of my snap caps and have recently only purchased '47 brand after trying many others. This hat has received tons of compliments and I love the way it feels. Definitely will purchase another soon.
