Classic Cut Waistcoat in Pale Sand Silk Matka

Relaxed Fit Nehru-Style Gilet in Pale Sand Silk Matka

A classic cut waistcoat in Pale Sand Silk Matka. A light and elegant shade that will work easily throughout spring and summer, even in the hottest of climes.

Silk Matka is a wonderful lightweight pure silk fabric that beats linen hands down when it comes to creasing.

This outer is available to order in sizes 36" to 54", with any of our collar types.

Our Silk Matka waistcoats are lined in Ticking, but you are welcome to choose alternatives. In Viscose we would suggest Sand. A silk lining would be another alternative – we would Cameo, but you are free to choose from our full range of silk linings.

A ticking lining will give this waistcoat outer structure, while a viscose or silk lining would be lighter-weight and give less hold. A viscose lining will add £10 to the listed price, a silk lining will add £30.

Outside we use a Dark Cornu button.

Cut & Usage

A superb alternative to a jacket or jumper in winter with a comfortable cut and ample pocket space. Cool and easy to wear, it will work as well inside as outside. 

Perfect for the smartest of summer occasions.

This relaxed cut has a five button-front and side vents for ease when moving and sitting. Fully lined, it has generous inside facings to avoid unsightly lining slippage.

At the chest a welted outbreast pocket sits at a gentle angle to the armhole. Two generously deep pockets sit squarely at the hip. Inside our waistcoats, an inbreast pocket rests on the right-hand side and a credit card sized pocket at elbow height on the left.
