During the First World War warm garments were always in need especially a garment that gave easy range of movement and this jerkin vest was quickly development and commonly issued to British soldiers. Most commonly the exterior was made in leather but as leather became harder to come back jerkins started to be made in cotton. Historically they were lined in a thick blanket wool, this jerkin is slightly different in that it is lined with the famous Harris Tweed. The jerkin pictured is like the originals in that it does not have pockets but two exterior or interior pockets are available as an option. The jerkin makes for a very useful and hard wearing outer layer and can easily be worn over a jacket but if you just want it as a normal vest just order a size smaller. A wide variety of Harris Tweed is available. Available in sizes 34 to 46. If you have any questions please ask!
