Measure your favourite garments, don't measure your body.
We have created many thousands of custom made pieces for our clients over the past few decades. Our experience has told us that the best way for us to get this right the first time is to take your garment measurements.
The measurements below refer to your jacket. Measure your favourite jacket and compare to find your best size. Alternatively, order custom made and send us your favourite jacket's measurements, we will make you a personalised fitted piece.
For those that are already our clients, we will have your custom sizing stored in our records. Select "Custom Tailored' with confidence and we will take care of the rest.
For those who are new to Joe Bananas, we will custom make the jacket of your choice. Once you purchase we will be in touch with instructions on how to measure yourself so that we can tailor your piece with a personalised fit.
For over 13,000 years, barley has been a staple crop—fueling civilizations, perfecting brews, and finding its way into everything from distilled spirits to health foods (for balance, of course). As one of Australia’s most important grains, barley is a symbol of tradition, craftsmanship, and hard-earned refinement—just like this jacket.
The Barley Houndstooth Raw Silk Jacket is a tribute to heritage and sophistication, woven in salt-of-the-earth tones that bring depth and character to its classic houndstooth pattern. A true gentleman’s staple, this jacket is timeless, versatile, and effortlessly stylish, pairing seamlessly with both modern tailoring and relaxed looks.
Handwoven over 200-300 days, with only 8-10 jackets per weave, this piece is as rare as a perfectly poured pint at the end of a long day—crafted for those who appreciate tradition with a contemporary edge.
Handwoven raw silk – textured, refined, and built to last. Classic houndstooth weave – a timeless staple with a modern Australian touch. Versatile salt-of-the-earth tones – pairing seamlessly with any wardrobe.
Like barley itself, this jacket is a foundation of style—rich in history, full of character, and best enjoyed in good company. Extremely limited—secure yours before it’s gone.

Revieved for a present. Concerned that it may be a little bland but the excellent fit, stylish cut and quality of the linen make this a standout. Perfect summer shirt with shorts.
Got this for a gift. Initially thought the colour may be a little much but the cut, the quality of the fabric and the muted tone (yes muted) make this a star with a wide variety of pants and jackets. Very very happy to add this to the wardrobe. Another winner from Joe.
You can rely on Joe Bananas for top quality stuff and for service with a smile. I bought my first jacket over 20 years ago from Joe himself and I have been coming back ever since. The linen shirts have always been a winner (I have several) but I had never had a white one until just recently. Top products - well designed, well made and sold by top people.
Added the linen and silk trousers to my wardrobe and they don’t disappoint. Fully lined, beautifully tailored, and as comfortable as anything. Love them!
JB's isn't a run in the mill Menswear business; bold and unique.
