Product Insights
The Graphite Boxy Shacket by Le 31 is a midweight layer priced at 325 CAD, currently in stock, with a boxy fit that is looser than a suit jacket — sizing down shortens the hem and shoulder fit. Its balanced wool-polyester outer fabric is not wool-dominant, and the slick satin lining, made from 100% recycled polyester indistinguishable from virgin, reduces friction for easy layering. Dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the structured weave, and the polyester lining resists shrinkage and stiffness from dry cleaning. Best suited for 5–15°C, it can be layered under a heavier coat for colder weather.

Deep Research
Recycled satiny lining: feel and sustainability
- The satin construction uses a high-thread-count weave where filament yarns float across the backing, creating a slick, lustrous surface on the inside of the shacket that reduces friction against shirt sleeves and makes for a fluid on-off experience — a desirable trait for a boxy jacket worn as a second layer.
- Polyester satin linings are inherently shrink-resistant and retain their smooth finish after solvent-based dry cleaning, which is the recommended care method for the wool-blend shell — this inner fabric won't deform or go stiff over time, preserving the jacket's internal feel season after season.
- The polyester is derived from post-consumer PET bottles rather than virgin petroleum, a fibre pathway that cuts the garment's embodied energy and diverts single-use plastics from waste streams, all while delivering a 'fine satiny' hand indistinguishable from conventionally sourced polyester linings.

Q&A
4 answered- How does this shacket fit compared to traditional suit jacket sizes? Is it true to size for a boxy fit, or should I size down for a more fitted look?
- This shacket has a cropped, boxy cut, so it fits looser than a traditional suit jacket. If you want a more fitted look, sizing down one size might work, but keep in mind the boxy style is intentional—going too small could affect shoulder fit and length.
- What is the exact wool blend percentage? Is it mostly wool or a higher synthetic mix?
- The exact blend percentage isn't listed, but the fabric is described as a wool and polyester blend made from recycled plastic bottles [1]. Based on similar Le 31 jackets, it's likely a balanced mix—not mostly wool.
- How should this shacket be cleaned? Is it dry clean only due to the wool blend?
- Care instructions aren't provided for this specific shacket, but given the wool blend and structured weave, dry cleaning is the safest choice to preserve the shape and fabric. Always check the care label inside the garment.
- What is the recommended temperature range or layering strategy for this shacket? Is it meant as a lightweight jacket for fall or can it be worn as a heavy shirt in cooler weather?
- This shacket is designed as a midweight layer—perfect for fall or cool spring days. It can be worn as a lightweight jacket over a shirt or as a heavier shirt with a tee underneath. The wool blend provides some warmth, but it's not insulated for deep winter.
