New houndstooth wool double breasted morning waistcoat size 40 4052
A vintage quality linen morning waistcoat copied from a 1960's bespoke waistcoat from a three piece. We make these to vintage standards, so there is no glue or ' interfusing' like everyone else is doing, instead a fine canvas layer. In keeping with this the waistcoat features a continuous neckband ( tradition dictates that a neckband signifies an outerwear garment and so removing your tailcoat is not technically 'wrong' in sartorial rules). 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 keeping with the vintage buying experience we have made all items unique. This is made of English woven 100% wool houndstooth with a bemberg back and lining.
