The Zawn Waistcoat

£145.00

Zawn. A Cornish word for a wave-smashed chasm in a sea-cliff. Something carved out by the sea over a very long time, dramatic and particular and entirely its own. 

The Zawn Waistcoat goes over everything, under everything, holds an outfit together without asking for much attention.

Garment description

Cut from 100% linen with a cotton lining, the Zawn Waistcoat follows the tradition of The Keeper Waistcoat: good design, considered fit, a nod to clothes worn in our history and brought into today's wardrobe. 

A back tab tightens with buttons or by tying the straps, which are double sided so can be worn either way. The new design features a fixed buttoned tab where the straps can be tied or replaced entirely with silk ties or handmade ties of your own. 

The blue denim twill colourway has a blue and cream cut check patterned back panel for a hidden detail worth finding.
