Developed in the 1980s, North Sails' Sailor jacket was the company's first apparel. It was designed as a slimmer, more comfortable ocean-going version of traditional 'foul-weather' sailing jackets. The M.J. Bale x North Sails Regatta Reversible Jacket updates the classic as a reversible two-coloured version made from a hardy wind and water-repellent Taslan fabric and Sorona. Taking inspiration from 1940s and 1950s aviator jackets, our designers have added engineered ribbed cuffs and hem, as well as zipped storm front pockets on both sides of the jacket. This is an all-action, all-weather garment to protect you from all the elements, whether on or off the ocean.
