New grey double breasted morning waistcoat size 42 4242

A vintage quality linen morning waistcoat copied from a 1960’s bespoke lounge suit waistcoat with a shawl / peak collar. We make these to vintage standards, so there is no glue or ' interfusing' like you normally find, instead a fine canvas layer like they were made originally. In keeping with this the waistcoat features a continuous neckband. The adjuster buckle is original NOS 1920's pronged type like all old waistcoats had and the buttons have a proper shank on them to improve the look and ease of fastening. In addition we have added button preparation for waistcoat slips*

 In keeping with the vintage buying experience we have made all items unique. This particular item is made of linen with a satin cotton back and a bemberg lining. 

Measurements 

Length - 22.5 ( measured from nape to imaginary point an inch above the point tips)**

*Slips sold separately 

** This is a regular fit, designed to cover the waistband ( all around)  of a trouser worn at the naval on a man of 5'8-5'11. This will generally be easier with traditional height trouser, modern hip height trousers won't work.

 Please be aware that the item our linen waistcoats, unless ironed professionally will always show creasing and texture. These new waistcoats are all handmade individually and have not been cleaned, they may have small traces of tailors chalk but this will come out with a sponge or in the first dry clean. 

 The DB waistcoats due to their nature may not sit completely flat at the front on all bodies. If this is the case and you want the lapels to sit flat you may want to move the central retaining button or the main buttons, with a tailor,
