Our range of tweed waistcoats are made within a mile of our Bethnal Green Boutique, Cock & Bull & Co ( -the UK’s first sustainable menswear boutique) where we currate sustainable menswear products alongside our own ethical menswear range.
The tweeds we use are artisnal, handwoven tweeds from the Isle of Lewis in Scotland’s Outer Hebrides (which is the same island that produces Harris Tweeds). Our carefully selected tweeds are as beautiful as you’re likely to see anywhere in the world. Handwoven from from Shetland wool (which is finer and softer than Harris Tweed), we’ve carefully chosen a collection of arresting colours and patterns to build on the Cock & Bull Menswear aesthetic. You’ll find some old favourites and a few surprises, something for the traditionalist and the modern sartorialist.
The linings are a sumptuous blend of organic hemp and organic silk in a colour that is some where between a cabernet wine and a royal purple and has the beauty of silk charmeuse with the durability of hemp.
The result is an outlandishly special classic 6 button waistcoat which has been based on vintage tweed waistcoats but bought up to date. To finish the look we also produce our matching Cock & Bull Menswear 8 Piece Tweed Rambler Caps as well as the new Tweed Cadet Caps.
Available in sizes 38 to 46 for immediate delivery.
