CHARCOAL PAPERBARK – Handwoven Raw Silk Jacket
Forged in Fire. Refined in Silk.
In the heart of the Australian summer, bushfires leave their mark on the land, yet from the ashes, our native flora regenerates, thriving in the wake of destruction. What remains is charcoal—an element of transformation, resilience, and renewal, rich in depth and texture.
The Charcoal Paperbark Raw Silk Jacket takes inspiration from this cycle of rebirth, weaving the deep, natural sheen of charcoal silk into the intricate paperbark weave. The result? A jacket that shifts with the light, exuding a quiet power and undeniable sophistication. This is a modern interpretation of formal elegance, with just enough edge to command attention—the kind of jacket that would complement Bond on an evening out.
Handwoven over 200-300 days, with only 8-10 jackets per weave, this piece is crafted for those who appreciate bold refinement and effortless confidence.
Handwoven raw silk – structured, luxurious, and full of depth.
Paperbark weave with a natural sheen – enhancing light and movement.
Refined yet striking – equally at home in formal or high-stakes settings.
Like charcoal left behind after fire, this jacket is a reminder that strength comes from reinvention. Extremely limited—secure yours before it smoulders away.

Let customers speak for us
from 576 reviewsExcellent quality on top of unique Australia inspired design.
A very delighted customer.....am very impressed with my new jacket. The pattern is subtle yet stands out; the colour is muted in photos but has more depth in daylight, and the fabric adds to the pattern and presence. Thank you Claudia and Will.
This shirt is especially nice for days when you want to wear short sleeves but it's a bit chilly. The thickness of the flannel adds just a bit of warmth. And the pattern is beautiful. I already got two compliments on it the first time I wore it.
Spotted this design in The Rocks store and loved it immediately. The photo doesn't do the pattern any favours. In Sydney daylight, the colours are bolder and more blue - perfect for a warm Sydney weekend. Am so very pleased I purchased the shirt on an impulse. Many thanks to Francie and Rory for their assistance.
Took delivery of Jacket in the Rocks.
Tried it on, fitted great - as always.
Good to see Will - hasn't changed a bit - helpful as always.
Have worn it a few times and it feels like I've lived in it for years.
Thanks, guys

Love my pink polo. Wife does too. Washes nicely and quick to dry
Just in time for summer, this beautiful short-sleeve shirt has me excited for the warm weather. I'll wear it with khakis or other monotone shorts to let it stand out.
I noticed this coat at your store when we were visiting Sydney. I went back three additional times before I decided to go inside and try it on. As soon as I put it on the fit was perfect and it required no alterations. It arrived today since I had to ship it home. The coat is just striking and looks great! I am so happy I purchased and plan to add an additional coat to my collection. The quaintly of workmanship is second to none.
You wouldn’t normally expect a short sleeved shirt to be this smart. Except of course this is an exceptionally tailored and exclusively patterned Joe Bananas shirt. Looks great, feels great.
Honestly, I can’t stress enough how amazing the fabric and feeling of the trousers are. The soft/orangic touch of the pants is outstanding! Glad was able to pull off an amazing outfit for dates, etc
This is my second Forest Green shirt from Joe Bananas and I love wearing it with my Silk jacket and several pairs of chinos all from Joe. Best men’s fashion store in Sydney
Love the shirt, looks great and feels good
It is perfect !
I bought the Shirt because it figured well in a couple of criteria. Firstly I went to a funeral of a close mate a brother of mine. He was killed in the surf around Huntington beach California USA, surfing with his son. Doing something he loved so dearly with someone he loves so deeply. His father asked that we wear a “ Yellow Hawaiian Shirt “ because his son was all “ Light n’ Life “ the opposite of what a funeral is. Turns out the shirt in my size as well is quite a difficult thing, as the back is usually made for skinny office types, the sleeves as well & the neck well for get about it! All the boxes ticked STREWTH! On the morning of the Monday’s a week ago as I put the Shirt a button came off ( language warning )! I raced off to J & T Laundry in Cronulla, I was in luck they sowed it on for me. Should have seen the smile on my laughing gear. I did my mate proud wearing that Shirt at Pip “ Lippa” Denison’s funeral in Wollongong that day.
A couple of visits and two excellent conversations with Will Sturrock later, I have the jacket I'd wanted each time I passed the shop on the Rocks for over a decade, plus two more, four shirts, and a belt. Brilliant.
