The Emerald—a gemstone of legendary status—has been treasured for over 3,500 years, mined from ancient Egyptian quarries to the mountains of India and Austria. Known for its deep verdant hue and mesmerizing clarity, a true emerald must possess both purity of colour and exceptional transparency to be considered among the finest.
The Emerald Paperbark Raw Silk Jacket may not be a gemstone, but it is every bit as striking as the finest emeralds in the world. Woven in a signature paperbark weave, this jacket features a rich, luminous emerald-green silk, its subtle sheen and elegant texture enhancing its natural opulence.
Regal, refined, and effortlessly luxurious, this jacket is a modern heirloom—fit for the King of the Emerald City.

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.
