Tweedväst Alcott Brown - Walker & Hawkes
The Alcott Waistcoat captures a classic British style whilst maintaining its functionality as a country waistcoat. Teflon-coated so you can worry less about your stylish outfit getting ruined by dirt and stains.
Expertly crafted in the U.K. with a combined 40+ years experience developing tweed garments. We are confident this waistcoat will fulfil the demands of the outdoorsman.
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.
We have also treated the tweed 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.
Made from top quality Derby Tweed, with strong stitching, to make for a durable waistcoat.
The workmanship of this garment is clear once you wear it – made possible due to our extensive experience. From the top quality, strongly stitched Derby Tweed to the soft inner lining finish – we bring you a stylish, yet hard-wearing waistcoat.
We’ve crafted this waistcoat to be a great companion during your outdoor ventures – carefully cut for a tailored fit whilst not restricting movement.
Accurately measure yourself to get the perfect fit you expect from a Walker & Hawkes product.
