SANDSTONE – Handwoven Raw Silk Jacket
The Foundation of Sydney. The Essence of Timeless Style.
From Wollongong in the south to Newcastle in the north, and bordered by the Blue Mountains in the west, the Sydney Basin is built on a foundation of ancient sandstone. This striking rock has shaped not just Sydney’s iconic skyline, but also the natural landscapes that define Australia’s largest city.
The Sandstone Raw Silk Jacket is a celebration of this enduring foundation, paying homage to the historic bedrock of The Rocks, Sydney, where Joe Bananas’ story unfolds. The intricate handwoven silk weave mirrors the complex beauty of Sydney’s golden sandstone, with a stunning interplay of earthy greens and rich reds, broken up by bright neutral threads that shimmer like sunlit sandstone granules on a summer afternoon.
THE ART OF THE WEAVE
- Handwoven Raw Silk – Natural texture, lightweight luxury, and breathable comfort.
- Earthy Greens & Reds – Reflecting the mineral tones of Sydney’s sandstone cliffs.
- Bright Neutral Threads – Mimicking the sun-kissed shimmer of rock formations in the Sydney summer.
- A Tribute to Sydney – Inspired by the ancient landscapes and historic architecture of Australia’s Harbour City.
HOW TO WEAR IT
- Dress It Up – Pair with taupe or charcoal wool trousers, a deep olive or soft ivory dress shirt, and brown leather shoes for a polished yet natural look.
- Dress It Down – Style with dark denim, a relaxed sage-green or rust tee, and suede boots for effortless sophistication.
LIMITED HANDWOVEN EDITION
Taking 250-300 days to craft, each Sandstone Jacket is a one-of-a-kind piece, echoing the ancient rock layers that have stood for millennia. With only a handful of these unique weaves available, this jacket is as rare and distinguished as its inspiration.
BUILT TO LAST. DESIGNED TO STAND OUT.
The Sandstone Raw Silk Jacket is more than just a garment—it’s a piece of Australia’s heritage, reimagined in modern elegance. Whether strolling through Sydney’s cobbled laneways or stepping into a grand occasion, this jacket is a bold yet sophisticated statement of enduring style.

from 528 reviewsThis jacket feels like a feather on your body. I don’t know how else to describe it. Thanks to the QVB team (Claudia, Rory) for walking me through this first (of 3) purchases, custom fitted exactly as visioned.
This has been a versatile wear as its that mix of a comfortable fit and a tone that’s easy to match with the majority of my wardrobe. Thanks for the QVB team (Claudia, Rory) for the custom fit prep work and keeping the information flowing throughout the process towards pickup day.
Super efficient service, thank you. JFW
This my third paperbark jacket, the previous ones being blue and black. This galah version is made from heavier material than my previous two, hence ideal for cooler days. It compliments pretty much any shirt or pants. And it is distinctive. You won’t find others wearing this jacket when attending events, conferences or festivities. Mmm, now that I think of it, maybe don’t buy it so mine remains a rarity ;-)
OMG! Joe bananas black T-shirt never fails to impress. The fit and wearability is superb and a testament to Jo’s original design and understanding of older male body. I live in these T-shirts for both informal and formal occasions and would be lost without them.
Great fitting shirts and designs.
We love Joe Bananas. Products are fabulous with great cut and gorgeous fabrics. Customer Service is outstanding. We live in New Zealand but will return on our next visit to Sydney.. Thank You !
My 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.
