Product Details

The Heavy Linen Vest in Rigging is made in France from a substantial linen fabric — heavy enough to hold structure while retaining the natural breathability of the fibre. The Rigging colourway is a warm, utilitarian mid-tone from the Vetra linen range.

As a sleeveless gilet it occupies a useful middle ground — lighter than any jacket and more structured than a knitwear layer, making it genuinely versatile across temperatures and settings. Patch pockets and a button fastening carry the practical character of the Vetra archive.

Features

• Adds practical warmth as a mid-layer between a shirt and a heavier jacket without adding bulk

• Linen construction breathes well — light enough for warmer days without feeling insubstantial

• Patch pockets provide practical storage without cluttering the silhouette

• Rigging colourway is a warm utilitarian mid-tone — works across casual and smart-casual wardrobes

• Made entirely in France — Vetra has manufactured on home soil without interruption since 1927

Style With

• Wear over a plain T-shirt with slim chinos for a relaxed layered workwear look
• Layer under a chore coat or overshirt for added warmth in transitional weather
• Pair with loose cotton trousers and canvas trainers for a casual, easy outfit
• Works well with denim jeans and a lightweight long-sleeve shirt underneath
