MORE INFO:
A Norfolk jacket is a loose, belted, single-breasted jacket with box pleats on the back and front, with a belt or half-belt.
It was originally designed as a shooting coat that did not bind when the elbow was raised to fire.
Its origin is uncertain but it may have been named after the Duke of Norfolk. It was made fashionable after the 1860s in the sporting circle of the Prince of Wales, later Edward VII, whose country residence was Sandringham House in Norfolk.
This style was hugely popular in the 1930s and 1940s
and making a big compact today - copied by designer brands like Mr. Freedom, Sugarcane Japan, RRL, Polo Ralph Lauren and many more.
