WHEAT HOUNDSTOOTH – Handwoven Raw Silk Jacket
A Tribute to the Spirit of Australia's Rural Warriors.
The Wheat Houndstooth Raw Silk Jacket celebrates the classic houndstooth pattern, which originated from the woven wool cloth of the Scottish Lowlands. Known for its broken checks and abstract, four-pointed shapes, the houndstooth pattern evokes timeless elegance and sophistication. With this piece, we pay homage to Australia's hardworking farmers, who wear this pattern with pride as a symbol of their strength and resilience in the heart of the land.
Inspired by the golden fields of wheat that stretch across the rural landscapes of Australia, the jacket’s silk blend of black, navy, tan, and white captures the earthy hues of the land, seamlessly integrating them into the iconic houndstooth design. This striking piece embodies both the richness of Australia’s agricultural heritage and the refined taste of the modern gentleman.
THE ART OF THE WEAVE
- Handwoven Raw Silk – Soft and breathable, the raw silk fabric adds depth and dimension to the classic houndstooth pattern.
- Black, Navy, Tan & White Silk – A harmonious blend of colors that reflects the golden hues of wheat fields, with contrasting elements of navy and black for added depth and sophistication.
- Ninja Star Houndstooth Pattern – The distinctive houndstooth weave resembles abstract, four-pointed shapes, creating a dynamic pattern that commands attention while remaining grounded in classic design.
HOW TO WEAR IT
- Dress It Up – Pair with charcoal wool trousers, a white dress shirt, and black leather boots for a sharp, polished look that blends classic styling with rural spirit.
- Dress It Down – For a more laid-back yet refined style, team with dark denim, a navy tee, and suede loafers for effortless elegance.
LIMITED HANDWOVEN EDITION
As with all Joe Bananas jackets, the Wheat Houndstooth Raw Silk Jacket is a rare and exclusive piece. Handwoven over 250-300 days, with only a select few available, it is as distinctive and unique as the hardworking farmers who inspired it.
A TRIBUTE TO AUSTRALIA’S RURAL LEGACY
More than just a jacket, the Wheat Houndstooth Raw Silk Jacket is a statement of strength, resilience, and sophistication. It is a tribute to the farmers who toil under the Australian sun, embodying their spirit while elevating their everyday attire to a level of refinement and elegance.
Wear the spirit of the land. Wear the legacy of Australia’s rural warriors.

from 518 reviewsMy wife and I arrived too town early to see a movie so we went window shopping. Joe Bananas presented material with textures and colours I've never seen before. It was explained the different natural features of the Australian landscape, fauna and flora inspired many of the material designs. Jackets, trousers, jumpers and more.
I am usually a plain dresser as my children remind me and initially seeing different colours and textures on me in the mirror at Joe Bananas didn't look quite right. I loved what was on the hangers however not sure if I could do the garments justice. I now love my green chinos and my summer trouser, yes I bought two.
The purchase inspired me to clean out my wardrobe. I tossed out anything I hadn't worn for 10 years, you can't rush things or go get silly.
I have made a few more little purchases including now a sports jacket, I'm loving my new cloths.
I think it is related to my purchases, I have joined the gym after years of not doing anything. I want to look good in my new Joe Bananas gear.
Look good, feel good. Stephen.
The moment I spotted this shirt in the window of Joe Bananas in Sydney's historic The Rocks district, I knew it was coming home with me.
The quality is superb, the design is unlike anything else, and since wearing it back here in Ireland I've had no end of compliments.
Then came the bonus. I discovered the design is called Raoul Duke, the famous alter ego of Hunter S. Thompson. As a long-time admirer of his writing, that little detail made an already great purchase even better.
Love it
I bought this jacket for my brother for his 50th. Thank you to the awesome staff at QVB (Claudia, Rory) who helped me plan his visit across emails & in-person advice. The “fashion show” day as I describe it was very rewarding as we walked with this purchase followed by a coffee celebration.
Loving my new jacket. I’m just a little disappointed that the promised T-shirts (1x black 1x white) were not included in the delivery.
Outstanding service, I was in desperate need of a black jacket and shirt, I spoke to Francis she couldn’t help me enough she said not to worry about it and that they will be straight on to it. As I live in Melbourne and I shop in the tSydney a bit so they had my measurements on file. She called around and found me one and called me and organised the thing shipping and said I would have in two day's low and be hold there it was days later I received it .Perfect fit both jacket and shirt and fantastic quality. And that’s why I shop at Joe Bananas. Thank you so much.
Everything about this t shirt is first class. The material, the sizing, the fit, the stitching and the colour. I am extremely happy and satisfied with my purchase.
I must have passed the Chapel Street store countless times before finally entering and when I did I was very glad I had. The garments on display where vibrant, colourful and a balanced mix of elegance and casual. It is apparent that a lot of creativity is involved in the design and manufacturing. It is not often I enter a men’s fashion shop and want everything in it but that is exactly what I felt at Joe Bananas. I could not be happier with the items that i purchased.
Love the cut and feel of pants and the willingness to make any alterations that I thought would improve the fit for me. A great product all round.
Great service
When I walked into the QVB store in Sydney I wasn't sure what I was looking for and chatting with Claudia really helped and I found a pair of trousers and a couple of T-shirts that I really liked and the trousers are comfortable and exactly what I need for my work. Thank you for the help with this one
I have enoyed the warmth, the lightness, and comfort. My partner likes the sexiness!
Fast, friendly, efficient, affordable service in altering my 31 year old Black Opal jacket. Excellent all round.

I’m so looking forward to wearing my Joe Bananas coats and suit around Europe for three months. Theatre, opera, concerts. I’ll get some photos to you. June, July & August
The fabric, the cut, the style. Everything to love about this. Think it will be the most versatile thing in my wardrobe.
