A Note on Length (Please Read Carefully):

This is a specialty 1.60-meter cut. This length is ideal for crafting a sharp, tailored Vest (Waistcoat) or a pair of robust Trousers.

For a jacket, this length is highly specific and suitable only for:

  • A very slender or smaller gentleman's size (e.g., EU 42-44 / US 32-34)

  • A standard Women's blazer

We strongly advise consulting with your tailor before purchase to confirm this 1.60m length is sufficient for your intended project.


The Curator's Note: The Modern Tweed

This is a substantial, richly textured fabric from Vitale Barberis Canonico's VINTAGE collection. It is a modern interpretation of classic tweed, engineered for both style and durability.

The robust 404 g/m weight and the Wool/Cotton/Nylon blend create a fabric with incredible character.

  • 61% Wool provides the warmth, body, and rich drape.

  • 32% Cotton gives it a crisp, dry hand-feel and structure.

  • 7% Nylon adds modern durability, ensuring the garment lasts a lifetime.

This is the perfect cloth for a hard-wearing, stylish garment for the Autumn & Winter months.
