You can not get any better than these vintage Derby Tweed sporting jackets, see below:


The jacket is in Reed Green , Olive with red and dark green woven stripes. There is a water resistant 'drop liner' made from a luxury thick Viscose. A drop liner so called because it is attached at the top of the garment but not at the bottom to allow water that soaks through the tweed outer layer to run off. The jacket has the usual Norfolk jacket features such as a removable belt with leather buckle and metal reinforced holes, shoulder reinforcements and collar fastening with lapel button and throat latch to keep out the elements. There is an intricate 'pivot sleeve' feature at the armpit to provide more room when raising the arm and an 'action back' pleat to allow freedom for casting a fly or shouldering a shotgun. The jacket features two large outside bellows pockets with buttoned flaps. The tailoring is superb , note the stitching detail on the inside turned up collar or the inside armpit detailing. The materials are the best, 100% wool Derby Tweed, the luxury viscose that you can only find on vintage clothing nowadays and lovely buttons. Altogether a most practical and robust jacket that look well and give many years of service in the field.
