Stacy Stewart Smith Men's Python & Denim Bellhop Jacket
Description
The Python & Denim Bellhop Jacket is an homage to the hotel livery of the Roaring '20s and early '30s — the moment when the bellhop's uniform was the sharpest thing in the lobby. Fashioned from 100% cotton denim with a slender, waist-length cut, the jacket features a genuine python snake paneled front, an abbreviated mandarin collar with loop detail at the back, a metal neck clasp, side front pockets, and a double-sided zipper. The lining is a metallic nylon and Lurex lamé — customizable — for a shocking couture effect that reveals itself only when the jacket moves. Available in white and black.
A garment for the man who understands that the entrance is made before the coat comes off.

Care
Spot clean with a damp cloth. Have professionally dry-cleaned by a leather and exotic skin specialist. Do not wet the snakeskin. Do not press or steam the jacket on the face side or on the snakeskin. Use a garment steamer on the reverse of the denim only to remove minor wrinkles. Use a soft garment brush to remove lint. Do not wear in rain or allow the jacket to become wet.
Care
Stacy Stewart Smith offers made-to-order garments, fine art, and digital publications — each requiring different care. Please refer to the product description for care and handling instructions specific to your purchase. For garments: dry clean or spot clean unless otherwise noted; do not machine wash. For fine art: keep away from direct sunlight and humidity; handle with clean, dry hands or cotton gloves. For digital products and publications: no physical care required; download and archive your files upon receipt.
Design
Every Stacy Stewart Smith piece begins as a drawing and ends as a decision — a deliberate choice of textile, construction method, and proportion made by a single designer with five decades of practice. The same eye that composes a painting composes a coat: line, weight, negative space, and the relationship between form and the body that inhabits it. Garments are produced in New York City, one at a time, to the measurements and preferences of the individual client. No two pieces are identical. No production run exists. This is not manufacturing — it is making.
The atelier sources textiles for their hand, weight, and longevity. Sustainability here is not a campaign. It is the natural consequence of making only what is wanted, from materials chosen to last, by a craftsman who will not put his name on anything less.
