The Alderney linen waistcoat is the culmination of our efforts to find the perfect answer to mid-season and late summer layering.

Quarter lined and cut from a 400g/sm top grade Belgian linen, it has a durable, rugged and reassuringly weighty feel to it. This ensures that it holds its shape better than lighter weight linens and the natural temperature regulating properties of the fabric (linen is made from the Flax plant which has a hollow fibre) make it the perfect accompaniment for warm summer days and cooler evenings alike.

This versatile Navy edition with charcoal brown contrasting pocket trims and Nehru collar piping is a Darzi classic - understated, timeless and sartorially suitable for all occasions.
