MotivMFG's Spring/Summer 2026 collection is titled "A.C.G.T." — referencing the four bases that make up a strand of DNA: Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine, & Thymine. The very conceptual title ties into the scientific inspiration behind the collection, which combines a set of unique and highly-technical fabrics with Motiv's usual stellar tailoring and design. The garments are somehow both old-world and futuristic, with riffs on familiar silhouettes and contemporary updates to classic styles that seem like they would feel equally appropriate in the Atomic Era of the late 40s as well as the distant 2100s. The Peak Lapel Lounge Jacket is Motiv's updated iteration of their original Denim Lounge Jacket from a few years back, with some fit tweaks and some style tweaks throughout. It's been a favorite of ours for several seasons, featuring an extremely handsome 1920s-30s fit and Motiv's usual exceptional tailoring. Compared to the older Lounge Jacket style, the shoulders have been modified significantly, being completely re-cut and let out to better accommodate a greater variety of bodies, and the side pockets have been changed to a "carved-in" welted type for additional durability. The fabric is completely custom, and one that Motiv have "painstakingly" developed in collaboration with the best narrow-loom weavers in China. This unique herringbone denim is woven on a special dobby weave loom from the 1950s, resulting in a more tactile and less "flat" hand. The fabric isn't sanforized as part of weaving, making it a more traditional shrink-to-fit denim that Motiv have finished with a wash to bring these down to size and remove that initial shrinkage, taking the guesswork out of sizing. The herringbone weave also helps the fabric breathe, and prevents excessive twisting over time. True to size, with a very tailored shape that fits handsomely right away and layers comfortably over shirts and light knits. The body is slightly short, usually worn in a 3-button stance that pairs best with high rise trousers. The trims are pretty great too, from the custom metal hardware to the selvedge details that are, well, everywhere (back seam, facings, cuffs, and under sleeve seams). The two internal pockets are cut from a cotton twill, and the collar can of course be worn up if you so desire. Fits true to size.
