A jacket or similar garment is made from a single, main blank and two gusset blanks. The main blank has a neck opening and has a front panel, a back panel and two sleeve portions all extending from the neck opening. The gusset blanks are of square, diamond or kite-like form and each has four sides. A first side of each gusset blank is secured to one of two lateral edges of the front panel of the main blank, a second side of each gusset blank is secured to one of two lateral edges of the back panel, and the third and fourth sides of each gusset blank are secured to the lateral edges of the sleeve portions. The lateral edges of each sleeve portion are secured together from the corner between the third and fourth sides of the gusset blank to the cuff edge, and each lateral edge of the front panel is secured to a corresponding lateral edge of the rear panel from the corner between the first and second sides of the gusset blank to the bottom edges of the front and back panels.
