Sporting Vests & Gilets|Purdey Men’s Technical Tweed Sporting Vest In Berkshire

The classic Purdey vest has been updated in newly developed technical tweed. The fabric is one third lighter than traditionally woven tweed and results in a more comfortable garment. Through a combination of yarn twist and the introduction of a very small amount of nylon, it is highly resilient against high levels of abrasion and friction. The tweed has a Teflon coating which causes water to bead and roll off. The design features spacious cartridge pockets, Alcantara trims and shoulder patches for added comfort. Our vests contain a hidden D3O absorption pad in the shoulder to reduce recoil when in the field. By using advanced polymer chemistry, D3O absorbs the energy created by each shot, in turn reducing the amount of force transmitted to your body, while remaining soft and flexible as to not compromise on comfort. The pad is designed to be interchangeable between the left and right shoulder depending on your preferred stance.95% wool, 5% nylon, woven in Scotland.  The model is wearing a size large. Height – 183cm, chest – 84cm.
