Walker & Hawkes Men's Derby Tweed Alcott Waistcoat Light Sage
Walker & Hawkes Men's Derby Tweed Alcott Waistcoat
The Alcott Tweed Waistcoat by Walker & Hawkes captures a classic British style whilst maintaining its functionality as a country waistcoat. The tweed is treated with a Teflon fabric protector. This works like a protective barrier around each fibre of the fabric to help fend off water, dirt and stains – all while not affecting the fabric’s weight, look, feel, colour, or breathability. The Alcott Waistcoat is made from top quality Derby Tweed, with strong stitching, to make for a durable waistcoat.
Expertly crafted in the U.K. with a combined 40+ years experience developing tweed garments. The Tweed is twill woven. Twill is a type of textile weave with the yarns packed very closely together, making it thick and tightly woven – resulting in a durable fabric which can withstand wear and tear. This type of weaving can be made in a multi-tone pattern, which has diagonal parallel ribs. The tweed is spun yarn, making it softer and less prone to snagging. The workmanship of this garment is clear once you wear it – made possible due to extensive experience. From the top quality, strongly stitched Derby Tweed to the soft inner lining finish – Walker & Hawkes bring you a stylish, yet hard-wearing waistcoat.
Dry-clean only to preserve the quality of this garment.
