Substantial Waxed Cotton

The waistcoat is made from 420gsm medium-weight Cupra waxed cotton, providing the rugged feel and traditional appearance associated with British country clothing.

Its waxed surface helps resist light showers and everyday dirt while developing a distinctive character through regular wear.

Quilted Tartan Lining

An iconic quilted tartan lining provides additional insulation around the body, making the waistcoat a practical choice for cool mornings and changeable outdoor conditions.

The sleeveless design retains warmth around the core without restricting movement through the shoulders and arms.

Two-Way Front Zip

A brass-finished two-way zip allows the waistcoat to be opened from the top or bottom. This can provide additional comfort when sitting, driving or completing active outdoor tasks.

The zip is covered by a stud-fastened storm flap, helping protect the front opening from cool breezes and light rain.

Practical Country Pockets

Two bellows pockets provide useful storage for gloves and everyday field essentials. Stud fastenings help keep their contents secure during active use.

Two separate handwarmer pockets offer convenient protection for cold hands, while an internal pocket provides additional storage inside the waistcoat.

Corduroy Collar

A traditional corduroy collar provides a soft finish around the neck and complements the Olive waxed-cotton outer.

The combination of corduroy, tartan lining and brass-coloured hardware gives the waistcoat an authentic country appearance.

Versatile Outdoor Layering

Wear the waistcoat over a checked shirt or lightweight jumper during mild weather. In colder conditions, it can be layered beneath a roomy outdoor coat.

It is suitable for shooting, beating, farming, gardening, dog walking and general country wear.
