What is a Crop Jacket? A Crop jacket is a shorter version of a traditional jacket, typically ending at or just above the waist. It's the ideal piece for adding a stylish edge to any outfit, whether you're dressing up for a special occasion or adding flair to your everyday look.

Unique and Versatile: Two Jackets in One Your Crop jacket is truly one-of-a-kind. As the only piece of its kind, it's exclusively yours. But that's not all - it's also fully reversible. Feeling like a change? Simply flip it inside out for a completely different look. It's like having two unique jackets in your wardrobe, each telling its own story through vibrant vintage fabrics and intricate Kantha stitching.

Size Inclusive We believe great style should be accessible to all. Our Crop jackets are available up to size EU48/UK20/US18.

Wear Your Impact: A Sustainable Statement When you slip on a Fifth Origins Crop jacket, you're wearing Priya's artwork. She's a skilled artisan from a small village in West Bengal, India. Reshma and her sisters transform forgotten sarees into beautiful, wearable art, using techniques passed down through generations. Your purchase helps Reshma and her fellow craftswomen earn a fair wage, support their family, and keep their traditional craft alive.

That's fashion that truly matters.

Care Instructions for Lasting Elegance

To keep your garment looking its best, wash only if necessary. Steaming is an excellent alternative to refresh its appearance without the wear and tear of washing. If washing is needed, please use the handwash cycle of your washing machine. After washing, lay the item flat to dry to preserve the shape and fabric integrity. By following these simple steps, you'll extend the life and maintain the beauty of your garment.

Kantha: Old Sarees, New Stories

Ever wonder what happens to beautiful old sarees in India? In Sikra village and other small villages in West Bengal and bodering Bangladesh, they get a second life through the age-old Kantha technique.

Here's how it works: Hawkers collect vintage sarees from all over India. These sarees are then layered (at least 4-5 layers) to first make quilts. It's usually done by groups of women who sit together, chatting and stitching, turning these old fabrics into pieces of art. Their nimble fingers create patterns that tell stories - of tradition, of their village, of the fabric's past life.

Once they're done, our tailors step in, shaping these stitched-up saree quilts into wearable art. It's slow fashion at its best - and the best part? Every piece is unique, just like you.

When you wear our Kantha pieces, you're not just looking good. You're wearing someone's labor of love, supporting a village, and giving new life to old cloth. Pretty cool, right?

So next time someone compliments your jacket, you'll have quite a story to tell!
