Traditional Tweed Construction

The Green/Blue wool-blend tweed provides a traditional country appearance that coordinates naturally with shooting shirts, knitwear, breeks and other Kingussie garments.

Polyester is blended with the wool to improve durability and wearability while preserving the characteristic texture and warmth of tweed.

PFAS-Free Water-Repellent Finish

The outer fabric is treated with Teflon EcoElite™, a PFAS-free durable water-repellent finish that helps light rain and moisture bead away from the surface.

This treatment provides useful protection during changeable weather, although the waistcoat is not described as fully waterproof.

Reinforced Shooting Panels

Faux nubuck panels across the shoulders help protect an area exposed to regular contact when mounting and carrying a shotgun.

Matching faux nubuck trims around the pockets provide further reinforcement while adding contrast to the Green/Blue tweed.

Expandable Cartridge Pockets

Two large open-top bellows pockets provide convenient access to cartridges and other field essentials.

Stud fastenings allow the bellows construction to be expanded when additional capacity is required. Antique-brass-coloured drainage eyelets positioned on the lower pocket walls allow collected water to escape.

Adjustable Field Fit

Back waist-adjuster tabs allow the fit to be refined around a shirt, pullover or fleece.

Side vents provide additional comfort and freedom of movement when walking, standing or bending during an active day outdoors.

Coordinated Kingussie Styling

A branded polyester lining and horn-effect buttons give the waistcoat a smart internal and external finish.

Wear it independently over a country shirt or coordinate it with the Kingussie field coat, breeks, trousers and matching headwear for a complete shooting outfit.
