While Nigel Cabourn's outwear is often the star of the show, this fall the collection is very well rounded and this knitted vest is a good reason why. The casual pockets and nice looking fit are great, and I seem to want this piece the more I look at it. It's surprisingly hard to find nice waist coats that don't have that nylon/synthetic back on them, so since this version is completely knit and made from lambswool, you're unlikely to find a better option out there. Of course that will come down to personal taste, but the cut of the V neck allows for several options including a Tee shirt, oxford shirt or a tie. It also would layer very well and coming in grey and navy blue couldn't be better options.

Too bad coggles doesn't carry it in S
Knitted vests are tricky because they tend to scream Grandpa but the cut on this one saves it for sure. Definitely good to see that it doesn't have the nylon back. Should definitely post more vest / waistcoat options as we head into Autumn/Winter. Thanks!
Very hard to pull off without looking like an OAP from the Tyrol.
I had the sky summer version but looked like I should be on Big Cook, Little Cook in it.
