My grandfather told me: once he came back from fishing, tired, lay down and fell asleep in his clothes. In his sleep he played cards all night with a sea devil – not for money, but for buttons. He woke – and all the buttons on his jacket were different.
Double-breasted jacket created under the impression of the clothes of the so-called "otkhodniks", seasonal workers in XIX century Russia who came to work in the city and made up a significant part of the urban population. Leaving their home villages, even for a long time, becoming hired workers, they remained part of the rural community and did not consider themselves city dwellers.
Black washed virgin linen made in Belarus. Ivory white washed cotton lining from Uzbekistan. Vegetable-tanned leather buttons. Sorcery.
