The Huon Pine is more than just a tree—it’s a piece of living history. Found only in the wild, misty rainforests of Tasmania, some of these slow-growing giants have stood for over 2,000 years. Prized for its golden hue, fine grain, and remarkable longevity, Huon Pine has been used to craft everything from classic wooden boats to exquisite furniture. Now, that same legacy is woven into fabric.
The Huon Pine Raw Silk Jacket channels the beauty of this Australian treasure, blending warm golden-hued and white silk in an intricate stringybark weave. The result? A refined yet effortlessly individual statement piece—rich in character, steeped in craftsmanship, and made for those who appreciate timeless style.
Handwoven over 200-300 days, with only 8-10 jackets per weave, this piece is as rare and enduring as the tree that inspired it.
Handwoven raw silk – textured, breathable, and naturally luxurious. Golden & white silk blend – a warm, classic palette that stands the test of time. Stringybark weave – adding depth and richness to an already distinctive fabric.
Like the legendary Huon Pine, this jacket is built to last—a true icon of Australian heritage and craftsmanship. Extremely limited—secure yours before it becomes a legend of the past.

Love this shirt. I wish I’d purchased more, but it was our final day before heading back to the UK, and I didn’t want to get something that wasn’t right. But in reality, I should have purchased a selection of colours. I can happily say this is currently my go-to shirt. Great quality and fit.
This shirt will wear soft and get ever more comfortable as it ages.
Absolutely delighted with it, and pleased to be wearing a garment made and assembled entirely in Oz.
The title says it all, it’s a classy custom made jacket which fits me extremely well. The caramel colour is very nice I couldn’t really ask for better,
I had no intention of buying chinos when I entered the Joe Bananas store. I was looking at shirts. I bought a shirt and then cast my eyes around other things in the store.
I spotted these chinos, they matched the shirt perfectly so I bought them. Like other chinos from JB they fit perfectly. The colour is not quite what I would have thought that I liked before I bought them. I now think it is a great colour.
The best thing about wearing these chinos is that a random pass by commented “great daks mate” Nothing more needs to be said about how great they are.
I spotted this shirt on the rack. It jumped out at me. I took it off the rack. Almost immediately I bought it in my correct size. I love it as it is quintessentially Joe Bananas.
The greatest praise I can give is that when wearing it Random people have said “great shirt mate” Nothing more needs to be said.
For a plain shirt, this well-designed shirt is deceptively elegant. The interesting colour (which the photo does not really convey) makes it versatile for matching with many different trousers or shorts.
