Alec Jacket
The Messrs Collection has been designed with a sense of vibrant modernity—bright, light weight fabrics and sleek, fitted cuts work together to produce an optimistic collection. With styles influenced by European fashion and a distinct seasonality, this line fits unlike the main line Walker Slater collection—think Italian tailoring; tapered cuts, silhouette fitting shapes. We would suggest, generally, going up a size from your norm however if you would like specific fit suggestions please consult the description below or contact us referencing the item name and your standard UK size.
StyleThe Alec is a chic, slim fitting jacket with a short modern cut body and tailored appearance. The sleeves are sleeker than our mainline range, with extra fabric around the upper area to allow for articulation. The twin vent enhances the silhouette neatly, with a two button fastening polishing off the overall shape. Details include a notched lapel with button hole, contrasting melton, and 3 external patch pockets.

Linen
Lightweight, breathable, and richly textured, linen is the quintessential summer fabric. Whether woven in a simple plain weave or the more textural hopsack, the fabric remains breathable and cool to wear thanks to the linen fibre's inherent absorbency and ability to conduct heat. Natural variations in thickness along the linen fibre give the resulting cloth a deeply textured and slightly slubby look reminiscent of woolen spun tweed. It is this distinctly naturalistic feeling and relaxed character that draws us to feature linen in the collection.

Herringbone
Herringbone, also called broken twill weave, describes a distinctive V-shaped weaving pattern. It is distinguished from a plain chevron by the break at reversal, which makes it resemble a broken zigzag. The pattern is called herringbone because it resembles the skeleton of a herring fish.
