The Universal Overall Coverall Jacket is inspired by traditional late 19th and early 20th-century workwear, when garments were designed for durability and practicality above all.
The Coverall Jacket stays true to this, made of a sturdy twill with triple stitching and two-piece sleeves.
Here we see Glen styled in a quintessential 2nd Academic getup, with the jacket sitting alongside an elegant polo, hat and trouser from Beams Plus.
All of this and more is available online at 2ndacademic.com and in our brand new store opening in Thornton’s Arcade, Leeds, this October.

The Beams Plus 4-button double-breasted blazer offers a masterclass in archival menswear history, faithfully replicating the relaxed sport coats worn on mid-century American campuses. Straying from the rigid, formal 6-button configurations traditional to European tailoring, this piece embraces the American Traditional style of the 1950s and 1960s, utilizing a slightly loose silhouette engineered for effortless layering over heavy Oxford shirts, sweater vests, and winter knits. Woven from a refined worsted yarn blend of 60% Shetland wool and 40% sheep’s wool, the fabric captures a classic vintage texture while remaining remarkably light, soft, and breathable for the Autumn/Winter season. To complete this collegiate archival ensemble, the blazer is paired with the Beams Plus 2-pleat Lightweight Madras patchwork trousers, showcasing a classic Indian check design, and grounded by the timeless Sebago Joe Modena Suede Loafers.

When he wasn’t addressing academic audiences, James Baldwin dressed with the stately flamboyance of the Duke of Windsor, yet he always carried himself with an effortless sense of cool. The iconic Harlemite writer delighted in wearing oversized, distinctive eyewear and boldly patterned silk neckerchiefs jauntily tied around his neck. He possessed a profound fondness for lush textures, regularly stepping out in a velvety ribbed corduroy suit, a plush shearling overcoat and an elegant astrakhan hat
Whether delivering a fiery speech or relaxing as an expatriate in France, Baldwin used fashion as an uncompromising form of self-expression, ensuring his visual presence was always just as sharp and articulate as his legendary prose.
