- Pear Green Aero-washed Linen - Thin and medium weight, this linen has been finished with a special high pressure air that stabilizes the fabric and gives it a smooth, soft hand. With a supple drape and slight sheen, it will give this vest a suiting look, while still retaining all the breathability and durability that makes us love linen. Plus the color! Spring in bloom, this green is bright and fresh. A sophisticated yet relaxed choice for your wardrobe!
- Brushed Gray Tartan Suiting - This tartan twill suiting looks like heavy wool coating, but feels like super 120s suiting. Viscose and cotton add a supple drape and thin hand, while the brushed surface gives a flannel quality. Blue, gray, and gold lines create a gorgeous pattern for a menswear look that is also utterly feminine.
- Cinnamon Essex Linen - A mix of 55% linen and 45% cotton, this medium weight fabric has a full-body drape that this waistcoat. The beauty of linen is that the more you wash it, the softer it becomes. Plus, it's eminently breathable and durable. With a rich, sepia brown hue, homespun with darker warp threads for a rustic look, this fabric is unique and beautiful and a great addition to your tailored wardrobe.
