Description

Bristling with texture and character, this timeless mid-grey tone suit can be dressed to the utmost levels of formality with a white shirt and dark tie, or separated as jacket and trousers and worn with knitwear for a more off-duty look.

Jacket Block

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.

Trouser Description

Classic Sexton heritage trousers, in a subtly unusual grey herringbone cloth.

Cut with two forward facing pleats and a slightly wider width, these trouser are a prime example of Savile row excellence.

Trouser Details

• Two forward pleats
• Jetted slant side pockets
• Double jet hip pocket on the right with hole and button
• 2" waistband with elongated extension and keeper loop
• Sexton pistol-shaped side adjusters
• 2” turn-up
• Inlay to let out the waist up to 2”
• Inlay to let out the fork 1”
• 2" of inlay in the hem to lengthen the trousers.

Trouser Block

Those who, like us, enjoy a touch of romance in their dress may prefer trousers cut with pleats. Our Heritage Trousers are cut in the classic mid-century style with a high rise, generous legs and two deep, forward-facing pleats on each side of the waist. Trousers like these create the illusion of a slim waist and hips, and form the bottom half of the hourglass shape that starts with our jackets. We finish these with our signature pistol shaped side straps and slant-jet pockets; details which help our Heritage Trousers to retain a clean, fluid line through the leg.

Cloth information

Woven in Italy, this slightly heavier (300g/m) cloth comprises of 98% wool with an added 2% of Elastane for a little tolerance and stretch. The base colour is a mid-light grey, with darker charcoal threads making up the texture in the weave. The weave in question is a combination of a familiar herringbone and a very similar chevron. While the chevron pattern zigzags non-stop across the fabric with each zig-zag having a sharp point, the herringbone pattern has an offset point at the top and bottom of the zig-zags. The result is an unusual but smart alternative to a typical herringbone fabric.
