Tweed Fabric

History of The Waistcoat

The first waistcoat appeared in Persia in the middle of the 17th century as a much longer garment than they are today. By 1800 they were much shorter and buttoned rather than hooked and were highly embroidered and decorative. In short the more flamboyant the more it was considered fashionable. However from the mid nineteenth century onwards waistcoats became much more sober and were made primarily to match the suits or jackets they would be worn with. As wristwatches became more fashionable interest in the waistcoat waned as it was no longer needed to house a pocket watch. Fast forward to current times and you will find the waistcoat in many guises and places, be it leather bikers waistcoats, tweed country style waistcoats, casual waistcoats with jeans and of course the very prevalent waistcoat as part of a suit. You will also find women wearing denim and embroidered waistcoats.

How and when to wear Your Tweed Waistcoats

A properly fitted waistcoat should be snug in the body but not so tight that the buttons pull. It should also be long enough to reach about an inch below the trouser waistband, showing none of the shirt beneath. Whilst many people see the tweed waistcoat as a formal item of clothing worn under a suit or even tuxedos at a wedding where the rings are traditionally put in the pockets, it is often worn in combination with jeans for a much more casual look. Indeed on our site you will find a ‘create your own’ trouser section which enables you to input your measurements and have bespoke trousers made in corduroy, moleskin or chino fabric to pair with your waistcoat. The Tweed waistcoat is considered an everyday item for many, particularly in the country.

Waistcoats have been around for centuries so they are never likely to be out of fashion. No wonder it's on most people's wishlist to own one.

Washing your New Tweed Waistcoat

Your new herringbone tweed waistcoat for men is tailored from a pure wool fabric and therefore should only be washed on a cool cycle or by hand. Always take extra care to check the label on your clothes for origin and best washing instructions.
