Jacket Block
The Drape Jacket is inspired by the slightly softer and rounder jackets Edward first cut at Kilgour in the 1960s. Subtly extended shoulders with soft pads and a rich chest contribute to a jacket feeling supremely comfortable. We like to cut drape jackets in smooth gabardine, plush corduroy and heavy Irish linen – cloths that will change the character and improve with age. We also add a second button to our drape jackets to help balance their generous chest and shoulder line.

Trouser Block
Our classic gentlemen’s trouser developed in 2023 is clean and close around the top but fuller through the knee and hem. This trouser is both comfortable and timelessly elegant, and with its 2” waistband with a long extension and side adjusters, it sits beautifully on an elegant show or rests naturally on a trainer.
Cloth information
Weighing around 350g/m, the majority of this wonderfully chunky corduroy is (perhaps surprisingly) 98% wool, from which the warmth and softness comes. With a 2% touch of elastane, a little extra stretch and bounce is introduced to counter the sometimes restrictive nature of a corduroy. The cord ribs themselves are a generous 3/8", while the channels seperating the cords are a much slimmer 1/8", resulting in the magnificent bold textured finish.

Made to order garments are based on our ready to wear garment measurements, as seen on our size guide. This option allows you to order an out of stock garment to be created for you specially - without changes to measurements or style. This service is predominantly for existing customers who are familiar with how our garments fit, but require a size that is unavailable or sold out in store.
Standard make time for Made to Order garments is 6-8 weeks, though express options and associated fees are available. For express items, please contact the team.
Made to Measure garments are priced slightly higher than Made to Order and will require a consultation with one of our team. Existing customers can just email us to order a made to measure garment. New customers will require a consultation (in person or digitally). Please email us at info@edwardsexton.co.uk to get the made to measure process started.
