SYDNEY HARBOUR HERRINGBONE – Handwoven Raw Silk Jacket
A Symphony of Blues. A Tribute to the Harbour.
There’s nothing quite like experiencing Sydney Harbour from the water—not from a postcard, but from the deck of a boat, gliding over deep blue swells between the Harbour Bridge and Manly Wharf. The harbour’s colours shift endlessly, from brilliant sapphire to moody violet, reflecting both the sky above and the city’s heartbeat below.
Inspired by this ever-changing palette, the Sydney Harbour Herringbone Raw Silk Jacket is a favourite among Joe Bananas collectors. A complex herringbone weave blends deep violet, rich indigo, and midnight blue, creating a luxurious depth of tone that mirrors the play of light on the water’s surface.
THE ART OF THE WEAVE
Handwoven Raw Silk – Breathable, textured, and uniquely luxurious.
Shifting Blue & Violet Tones – Reflecting the infinite hues of Sydney Harbour.
Herringbone Weave – A sophisticated structure that adds depth, movement, and elegance.
HOW TO WEAR IT
Dress It Up – Pair with navy wool trousers, a crisp white or light blue dress shirt, and black leather loafers for a refined, maritime-inspired look.
Dress It Down – Style with denim, a soft grey or navy tee, and suede boots for casual elegance with a coastal touch.
LIMITED HANDWOVEN EDITION
Like all Joe Bananas handwoven silk jackets, this piece is a rare collectible, taking 250-300 days to weave. Only a handful exist, each one as unpredictable and stunning as Sydney’s waters at sunrise or dusk.
A STATEMENT OF COASTAL SOPHISTICATION
The Sydney Harbour Herringbone Jacket is more than just a garment—it’s a celebration of Sydney’s most iconic natural wonder, a reminder of the harbour’s timeless beauty, and a testament to bold, effortless style.
Wear the water. Own the horizon.

The Lemon linen is a great shirt. I was searching for a vibrant “Statement shirt” for an event on our vacation to Ibiza, and I found it at Joe Bananas, where I found many other things I liked as well. The quality of merchandise is outstanding, the designs are unique, and customer service is exceptional. I’m very pleased with my lemon and my experience, my first at Joe Bananas, but certainly not the last.
Needed a new jacket for a late invitation-no worries… Got my Black Marble after some size adjustments, just in time and with a very nice fit and looks (and that all the way to Sweden).
Nat our most excellent Sales rep absolutely sold me on this shirt and I wore it once and clocked 15 compliments in a 15 min walk to the restaurant. This shirt will get you noticed ...
Whenever I wear one of my Joe Bananas jackets, I never fail to get a compliment. The latest was at the Addison and a night to remember. Thank you Even.
Normally I do not enjoy large prints on shirts but after seeing the striking color contrast of purple, white, blue, and dashes of deep burgundy I was captivated. The water color type design is eye catching yet subdued at the same time.
As always, JoeB manages to blend the right style with the right amount of cool. The shirt looks and feels terrific. I have worn it with shorts, and underneath a jacket at a casual party…lots of compliments on all occasions!
I recently purchased this black leather belt and I’m really impressed with the quality—it feels sturdy and well-made. The leather looks sleek and premium. It is comfortable, stylish, and versatile enough for both casual and formal outfits. This is my second belt from JB. Highly recommended!
