With the second chapter of The Code of Making, Lardini enters the heart of production to document the Knitted Jacket: the brand’s manifesto garment and the ultimate synthesis of its contemporary language

Born in 2013 by anticipating the shift toward a more relaxed yet refined masculinity, it merges two distinct worlds, the structure and proportions of traditional tailoring with the softness and fluidity of knitwear. The Code of Making 2.0 traces every step of this creation, from the selection of fine yarns to the shaping of individually knitted panels, leading to the final assembly. At the core of the story is the iconic single-breasted two-button jacket, reinterpreted in ivory extrafine merino wool with an intricate perforated knit that enhances its lightness and texture.

Here, innovation is born directly from artisanal mastery. Going behind the scenes of the garment reveals how manufacturing expertise blends seamlessly with advanced yarn research and modern construction techniques. The making transcends simple production, standing as the true essence of Lardini’s identity.

From Filottrano to the world, The Code of Making reaffirms the vision of "Heritage for Tomorrow"—a living legacy meant not just to be preserved, but to be reinterpreted and carried forward into the future
