Chocolate Gaberdine Suit

Chic, sexy, and dark. A chocolate wool gabardine Heritage Jacket with wider lapels, a bolder silhouette, ticket pocket, and side vents — cut in a cloth that nods to the rebellious glamour of seventies Savile Row while feeling entirely modern and sleek. The gabardine's smooth, cool finish and natural crease resistance give it a sharp, considered authority that holds through a long day. Shown here in a size 40.

Our Heritage Jacket is the epitome of the Sexton look, cut with confident peak lapels, a straight shoulder line and one button to fasten. Single-breasted one-button jackets like this contribute to a lean, athletic look. The single button focuses the eye on the wearer’s natural waistline, while a broad lapel draws the eye towards the shoulders, which contrasts with the jacket’s slim waist. The overall impression is supremely elegant, and true to our Art Deco reference points.

Chic, sexy, and precise. The Parallel Trouser in this chocolate wool gabardine is close at the top, narrow through the knee, with a subtle flare created by line work that gives it a sleek, dark silhouette. The gabardine holds the line with complete precision while wearing cooler and more comfortably than its weight suggests. Plain bottoms. Shown here in a size 34.

Most of our trousers are cut with timeless, gently tapered legs, but we also recently reintroduced Parallel Trousers, which taper through the thigh and then fall straight from the knee, giving the impression of a subtle flare. These come with no small amount of sex appeal, and are the style of trouser that Edward introduced at Nutter’s of Savile Row, as worn by the rock aristocracy of the 1970s – Mick Jagger in particular. Turn-ups add a touch of panache, and help wider leg trousers to drape and fall correctly – and so are always to be encouraged. We like healthy two-inch turn-ups on all of our trousers.
