Seersucker Suit Jacket by After Six in Classic Blue Seersucker
$159



Made from puckered cotton fabric, our Seersucker Suit jacket by After Six embodies the essence of summery style. This ultimate summer suit jacket features a classic two-button notch lapel design with a single vent at the back that fits close to your body without restricting. Modern details include a darted front, four-button detail at sleeves, and flap pockets. Seersucker's unique puckered texture makes it a natural performance fabric, allowing for excellent breathability, and also means that pressing is not necessary—both exceptional qualities for a tropical destination or summer wedding. You'll stay cool in your seersucker suit for years to come.
The word Seersucker originates from the Persian words "shir u shakar", meaning "milk and sugar", because of its smooth and rough stripes resembling the smooth surface of milk and bumpy texture of sugar. Joseph Haspel, who founded a small manufacturing business in 1909 in New Orleans, is said to have created a seersucker garment for the working class. But the fabric was soon embraced by Southern gentlemen and eventually by well-to-do Ivy Leaguers. It was famously worn by FDR, Senator Robert Byrd, actor Andy Griffith as TV's Matlock, and actor Gregory Peck as Atticus Finch.
