42" Slim Cut Nehru-Style Gilet in Black Merino Melton

A Tailored Cut waistcoat in a superb black pure merino melton by AW Hainsworth in size 42". A deep black in a sumptuously soft pure merino wool flannel. A warmer weight textile, this fabric has a magnificent handle. 

Made up with a Nehru Collar, Black Corozo buttons and lined in pure cotton ticking.

Cut & Usage

A superb and very smart alternative to a jacket or jumper for the cooler days and nights with a slim, tailored cut and ample pocket space. Warm and easy to wear, it will work as well inside as outside.

This fitted 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. 

Composition

Outer: 100% Merino Wool

Lining: 100% Cotton

Photographs

The photographs show the black merino melton made up in our Classic Cut waistcoat. This waistcoat has  a Nehru collar, a ticking lining and Black Corozo buttons – as illustrated in the second photograph.

The Maker

This cloth has been in Yorkshire by the wonderful AW Hainsworth who have been busy weaving cloth since 1783. Best known (perhaps) for clothing royalty and the military for full-dress ceremonial occasions, their cloth has embellished and enriched the furnishings of palaces across the world for centuries.
