Men's Irish Tweed Waistcoats

A tweed waistcoat adds structure and warmth without the weight of a full jacket, whether worn under a wedding suit or over a simple shirt. Woven from wool sourced from regions such as Donegal, our men's Irish tweed waistcoats pair a fitted cut and leather buttons with the flecked texture Irish tweed is known for.

Tweed Waistcoat Construction and Detail

Fit and detail set a tweed waistcoat apart from a plain vest. Our designs include functional pockets, an adjustable back belt and a smooth interior lining, along with leather buttons that finish the look. Donegal tweed brings its familiar flecked texture, drawn from natural shades found across the Irish countryside.

Wool is naturally warm and water resistant, which makes a tweed waistcoat a practical extra layer as well as a smart one. Worn under a jacket it adds insulation without bulk, and worn alone over a shirt or a sweater it works as a lighter layer for cooler days indoors or out.

Our men's Irish tweed waistcoats are woven by artisans including Mucros Weavers in Killarney, County Kerry, who have worked with wool and tweed for generations. Styles suit a wedding, race day or formal event, and the same waistcoat works just as well for smart everyday dressing when paired with a shirt or a knit underneath, no jacket required.
