Elvet Jacket IIII

£310.00

Handmade in a British wool cloth from one of our last remaining Welsh woollen mills.

The hardwearing, hardworking tweed in coal-seam black is indulgently lined with the softest, sustainably salvaged, French cotton velvet in a colour somewhere between rich burgundy, mahogany or possibly baked plums…

Woven on historic looms from British wool yarns, our new jacket is supporting the massive restoration of Elvet Woollen Mill. Tucked into the Cothi Valley, Carmarthenshire, Elvet is one of only 7 working woollen mills left in Wales and one of only 2 that produce apparel cloth by commission; a vital part of the mission to preserve the textile heritage of Wales.

You can read more about the Elvet story on our blog post, here.

An easy fitting, non-gendered jacket. The hard wearing outer cloth - something British wool does so well - has a graphic pattern that hints towards our heritage Welsh blankets, but unlike the heavy double cloth this one is actually a lighter weight, twill weave, allowing it the drape, comfort and versatility of an every day go-to layer.

This particular outer cloth - Elvet no.IIII - is probably the most dense cloth of the range, meaning it holds its shape with a little more intention and will have extra resistance to dirt and abrasion. The soft and supple velvet lining to the body and collar offers a silky luxury within. The sleeves are lined with smooth organic cotton for ease of wear.

Made entirely with natural fibres - no hidden synthetic facings or interliners - you can handwash this jacket (should you ever need to) just like a wool jumper.
