The Blazer That Actually Has a Story to Tell
Look, we'd love to claim we designed this rather splendid piece, but we'd be fibbing. This is the real deal: an original rowing blazer from the 1940s or 1950s, complete with its original embroidered wool and metal badge. The Latin motto on the breast reads 'Ego Regem Sequar' which means 'I will Follow the King' and yes, we had to look that up too, but it does make you sound impossibly cultured at parties.
It's the sort of jacket that whispers 'I have my life together' whilst you're actually checking your phone for the time. Marvellous, really.
Why Choose Our Vintage Rowing Blazer
Proper Heritage Craftsmanship: 100 percent wool exterior with 100 percent viscose twill lining. They simply don't make them like this anymore, which is either reassuring or rather depressing depending on your outlook.
Beautifully Considered Details: Inside slit breast pockets that actually work, double flap hip pockets with proper depth, and an outer breast pocket for the essentials. Fabulously made with the sort of attention to detail that modern tailoring has largely forgotten.
Gloriously Wearable Fit: Cuts across sizes in that wonderfully ambiguous way of vintage pieces. Fits a men's small or women's medium, which means it's rather forgiving and utterly fetching on most frames.
Authentic Vintage Provenance: Not a reproduction. Not artificially distressed. Genuinely aged with the kind of patina that only eight decades can provide.

SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.

At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.
We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!
RETURNS

Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect.
Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience. Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — step inside, explore our world, and see what catches your imagination.
Giving Back
We’re proud to support Sutton Night Watch, a grassroots UK charity making a real difference in the lives of those facing homelessness. Through regular donations of stock, supplies, and essentials, we back their mission to offer warmth, dignity, and practical help to anyone in need — right where it matters most.
