The waistcoat shown here is cut in goatskin made in Italy. It is said that the best tanneries are Italian: you will be convinced when you touch this fine leather! Its ‘strength’ is relatively light, which gives flexibility and comfort to the garment. The suede effect is perfectly executed, and the dark sand colour is subtle and elegant. Goatskin is known for its robustness and flexibility. A real second skin! It is a perfect pick for early season clothes. Massimo took charge of the production process. He has a real know-how that is passed on from generation to generation, and runs a family workshop south of Florence. The result is a garment with a remarkable finishing.
You would lie to stay elegant but prefer wearing a waistcoat than a jacket, which sometimes looks overdressed? Then the patch-pocket waistcoat will become a central piece of your wardrobe.
Its cut is the one of a three-piece suit: it should be close fitting without ever restraining you. That is why we suggest you should pick a size smaller than your jacket’s size. If your jacket says 52, choose a size 50!
Hollington’s waistcoat shows a V-shape collar and is traditionally worn with the lower button open. The back fabric is the same as the front fabric and it has no plait to respect the pure aesthetics of the clothing line. It also holds two side slits allowing a perfect freedom of movement, and a slightly plunging cut.
Inside is a zipped chest pocket large enough to contain your wallet. Outside, three patch pockets are maintained by topstitched seams.
Hollington favours double, symmetrical seams to underline the architectural structure of the garment.
