News From Home Brown Striped Worsted Suiting

A relaxed fitting, boxy, button front vest cut from a fine, worsted wool twill suiting cloth in a mixed brown stripe. Features a stand collar cut as a continuation of the body and shoulder panels and wraparound darted patch pockets at the front. Darting at the shoulder gusset draws the collar closer to the neck while the roomier fit through the chest is controlled using side darts that lend a mild "pinched" effect, causing the hem to sit slightly away from the waistline. Constructed with a full lining in a fine, undyed cotton twill including two side-entry inner pockets for a fully encased finish; Corozo buttons throughout.

The Striped Worsted Suiting is a 280/gsm, yarn dyed, suiting cloth woven in Aichi prefecture, Japan using super fine Australian Merino wool. Bearing a distinct coarse, dry texture reminiscent of classic English suiting fabrics, the cloth is remarkably durable despite its fine appearance.
