The RB17 Jacket

Drawn from the car, made to be kept.

  1. 01The sketch

    It begins as a single line, drawn by hand.

  2. 02The wind tunnel

    At speed, the air traces every surface of the car.

  3. 03The wake

    Behind the car, the air leaves a pattern of its own.

  4. 04The thread

    That pattern is followed, line by line, in thread.

Air, in Motion

Where the air went, the thread follows.

A closer look.

Conceived as an extension of the car.

The jacket from the front: black, with embroidered chest panels
The jacket open, showing the car embroidered into the silk lining
The jacket from behind: the car's airflow embroidered across the back
The front

The front panels follow the lines of its bodywork.

The lining

Inside, the car itself, set in silk beside Adrian Newey’s signature.

The back

Across the back, the car’s wake, in thread.

Every line starts on the car.

From pencil on paper to the lining.

Hand-drawn aerodynamic sketch of the RB17 from above, with streamlines and notes
The same car from above, embroidered into the silk lining beside Adrian Newey’s signature
Detail of the collar and zip: silk and linen weave with embroidered panels

Silk, linen, and hand embroidery.

A shell of pure silk and linen.

Lined and finished in 100% silk.

Cut to an easy, unisex fit.

The plaque inside the jacket: RB17, Max Verstappen, chassis number

One car.
Two jackets.

50 cars, each joined by a pair: one for each seat, numbered to its chassis.

Motion, made lasting.
