A type of sports jacket. There are several theories about the name, including that it comes from the Norfolk region in eastern England, or that it was first worn by Lord Norfolk, but neither is certain. What first appeared in the 1860s and 1870s as the Norfolk shirt developed into a jacket in the 1880s, and was worn by men, women and children for hunting and sports, combined with a hat and knickerbockers made of the same fabric. When combined with long trousers, it became a casual wear, and has continued to be the basic men's top to this day. Source: Heibonsha World Encyclopedia, 2nd Edition Information |
スポーツ・ジャケットの一種。名称は,イギリス東部のノーフォーク地方に由来するとか,ノーフォーク卿が初めて着たからなどの説があるが,いずれも定かでない。1860‐70年代にノーフォーク・シャツとしてあらわれたものが,80年代にジャケットに発展し,共生地の帽子やニッカーボッカーズと組み合わせ,男女,子どもとも狩猟やスポーツ用として着用した。長ズボンを組み合わせて日常着にもなり,現代までひき続いて基本的な男性用の上衣となった。
