Classic traditional clothing: The knitted jacket reinterpreted
The knitted jacket is much more than just a warming coat—it's an integral part of a successful traditional look. Whether worn with a dirndl, lederhosen, or an urban casual outfit, a high-quality knitted jacket combines tradition, comfort, and stylish understatement in a particularly charming way. At JAN&INA Trachten, you'll find knitted jackets for women crafted with meticulous attention to detail and designed to meet the highest standards of style and quality.
Why a knitted jacket belongs to every traditional dress
A well-chosen knitted jacket completes any dirndl look. It provides warmth on cool evenings, accentuates the silhouette, and adds a cozy, down-to-earth touch to the outfit. Thanks to high-quality materials such as merino wool, cotton blends, or fulled yarn, the jacket is cuddly soft, temperature-regulating, and yet retains its shape. Whether on the way to church, at a family celebration, or on a stroll after the folk festival – with a knitted jacket, you'll be dressed stylishly and comfortably.
Traditional cuts with a modern twist
Our knitted jackets incorporate classic elements such as stand-up collars, horn buttons, and contrasting panels, but reinterpret them: Feminine fits, curved hems, and fine knit patterns give the pieces a modern, elegant look. The figure-hugging cut of our jackets makes them ideal for layering over a dirndl or traditional skirt without adding bulk or breaking the line.
Versatility in design & application
Our knitted jackets aren't just perfect for traditional attire. They also look great in everyday life – whether worn with jeans, trousers, or even over a boho-style dress. Especially in transitional seasons or on cool summer evenings, they're the perfect alternative to chunky jackets or sporty vests. The soft knit texture adds warmth without compromising on lightness.
Warming materials with style factor
We use only select materials for our knitted jackets that not only look good but also wear wonderfully: pure merino wool for maximum comfort, cotton blends for everyday wear, or fulled wool for structured models with a rustic character. The colors are deliberately timeless – natural, taupe, dark gray, burgundy, sage, or beige – and go with almost any dirndl color.
Elaborate details for that certain something
What makes our jackets special are the small, loving details: patch pockets, fine edging, decorative buttons, cable knits, or contrasting seams. Some models feature hand-stitched details or tone-on-tone embroidery, which clearly distinguish them from conventional knitwear. A JAN&INA knitted jacket is more than just a jacket—it's a style statement.
Perfect for weddings, parties & everyday wear
An elegant knitted jacket is also the ideal addition for festive occasions. Many of our customers wear it to weddings – whether as a bride with a simple white dirndl or as a stylish contrast to colorful silk fabrics. Combined with a wedding dirndl, it creates a look that is both traditional and personal. A knitted jacket is also a stylish and practical piece for witnesses, guests, or celebratory baptisms.
Fit & Sizes – the right cut for every figure
Our knitted jackets are available in various lengths and sizes – from waist-length to hip-length. Our models with a gently curved hem are particularly popular, as they hug the waist and don't conceal the dirndl underneath. We also offer suitable cuts for women with curves that aren't bulky yet still create a beautiful, feminine overall look.
Sustainability & quality in every stitch
At JAN&INA Trachten, we place great importance on long-lasting fashion. Our jackets are crafted with the utmost care in Europe – using sustainable yarns, under fair conditions, and in small batches. The result: a high-quality garment that will bring years of enjoyment and is distinguished by its quality and style.
Easy-care & durable
Many of our jackets are easy to clean by hand or on a wool cycle. Thanks to their high-quality craftsmanship, they retain their shape, hardly pill, and retain their shape even after frequent wear. A tip: Simply air them out after wearing them – this will keep your jacket fresh and ready for use for a long time.
