Nigel Cabourn Alpaca Wool Navy Vest

Shoulder width: 29 cm
Width: 45 cm
Length: 57 cm

This is a wool vest from Nigel Cabourn. Made in Scotland, known as the home of knitwear. The material is 100% wool, and it's a very luxurious piece using the rare alpaca wool.

The color is a calm navy. While not flashy, it has a depth of expression due to the unique texture of alpaca, resulting in a simple yet impactful finish. It provides excellent warmth while being lightweight and suitable for layering.

The front has practical pockets. While it has elements of workwear and military style, the overall balance is refined, and it well represents Nigel Cabourn's aesthetic of "reconstructing vintage wear in a modern way."
The condition is excellent, with no pilling or noticeable signs of wear. Honestly, there aren't many pieces in such good condition with alpaca blend knit.

The texture of the knit is highly recommended for those looking for cardigans or vests, and you can feel the solid construction typical of British knitwear. Although it's made in Scotland, it's a piece that will naturally appeal to those looking for British knitwear.

In terms of the brand's direction,
It's especially compatible with those who like vintage-based clothing like Anatomica, RRL, and Woolrich, and it will undoubtedly fit into the wardrobe of those who love the world of Nigel Cabourn.
Also, it pairs very well with Mallory jackets and outerwear made of Ventile material, and the level of completion when used as an inner layer is quite high.
