Arvotex (Finland) 70s, Diolen, High Lapel Notch, Clerical SUNDAZED & OUTSIDE SOCIETY S.O.S. | sundazed.io/sos Arvotex’s blazer channels Cold War-era Nordic rationalism—tonal restraint, Diolen-wool blend, and civic tailoring with ideological clarity. The three-button blazer by Arvotex OY emerges as a sober yet technically articulate embodiment of mid-century Nordic tailoring, crafted in Turku, Finland, at the intersection of civic duty and climate-adapted practicality. Rooted in Finland’s post-war rationalist design ethos, Arvotex garments catered to municipal professionals, civil servants, and formal civilian dressers, marrying soft tailoring with utilitarian fabrics in a manner that privileged restraint, respectability, and durability over aesthetic indulgence. This particular blazer reflects the brand’s founding principles with its institutional sensibility, subdued plaid palette, and deliberately unadorned silhouette, structured for daily repetition in cold climates and formal social settings. Constructed with a fully lined, softly structured tailoring methodology, the garment employs padded shoulders, a four-button single-breasted stance, and clean internal finishing designed for durability across multiple wear contexts.
