Recognized since the early 20th century in classic tailoring, the lapel roll distinguishes a soft, hand-padded lapel from rigid, machine-pressed alternatives. Visible along the front of the jacket, it begins at the collar and flows through the chest, subtly shaping the lapel and chest line.
A well-formed lapel roll adds depth, elegance, and personality to a jacket, quietly signaling expert hand-crafting and setting a bespoke garment apart from off-the-rack styles. Achieved through precise hand-padding and careful stitching, the lapel is shaped stitch by stitch to create a soft curve that naturally rolls toward the button — a fluidity that machine construction rarely replicates.
