This jacket is "very British" in terms of fabric and style. The non-slip fabric made of warming wool has a distinctive twill weave and a fine, multi-colored check pattern. The cut is classic and sporty-elegant. The jacket is unlined and all seams are neatly piped. The fabric is doubled at the chest and the smooth viscose sleeve lining makes it easier to put on and take off. A slit at the back makes it more comfortable to wear. The cuffs are finished with real buttonholes. The Blue de Gênes logo - a pin with a butterfly fastening - inserted into the breast pocket opening can be easily removed if required. Two patch pockets, an inset breast pocket and an inside pocket can hold small items for everyday use.

Long ago, dockworkers in Genoa wore work clothes made of a strong cotton fabric dyed with indigo. Since Genoa belonged to France at the time, this went by the French name "Bleu de Gênes", which in English-speaking countries became "Blue Jeans". Against the backdrop of this history, the Blue de Gênes label was launched in Kolding, Denmark, in 2010. But Ole Madsen, the mastermind behind it, has long since gone beyond jeans. He manufactures authentic clothing from selected materials, whose timeless design literally endures the years. Production takes place almost exclusively in Europe, with Blue de Gênes working with small, family-run businesses that are each specialists in their field. Thus, the jeans come from northern Italy, some pants from Turkey and the shirts from Portugal.

Staining of light-coloured clothing, furniture and other objects is possible.
