FAQs

What does the dogtooth pattern represent?

The dogtooth pattern is a classic textile design characterized by broken checks or abstract four-pointed shapes, synonymous with sophisticated, traditional British tailoring.

Is the vest machine washable?

Due to the craftsmanship and specific knit of the Sn64, we strongly recommend professional dry cleaning to maintain the fabric's integrity and pattern clarity.

Can I wear this in warmer weather?

This vest is primarily designed for layering in cool to cold climates. It may be too warm for summer, but it is an excellent transitional piece for spring or autumn.

What shirt should I wear under this vest?

A crisp, solid-coloured button-down shirt is the best choice, as it allows the dogtooth pattern to stand out as the centerpiece of the outfit.

How should the vest fit?

It should be snug enough to sit close to the body for warmth, but not so tight that the armholes pull or the fabric bunches at the chest.

Is the blue colour prone to fading?

Like all quality garments, it should be stored out of direct sunlight and cleaned according to instructions to preserve the depth of the blue dye.

Troubleshooting

Fabric snag or pull in the knit

Do not cut the thread. Gently use a knitting needle or crochet hook to pull the snag through to the inside of the garment to hide the loose loop.

Wrinkling of the fabric

Avoid using a high-heat iron directly. Use a handheld garment steamer from a distance to release wrinkles safely without flattening the pattern's texture.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated and timeless aesthetic
  • Excellent for versatile layering
  • High-quality material construction
  • Deep, versatile blue colour palette

Cons

  • Patterned fabric requires specific cleaning care
  • Limited to smart-casual or professional dress codes
  • Dry cleaning often recommended to preserve the dogtooth detail

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your vest retains its shape and pattern definition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Storage: Always store the vest on a padded hanger to prevent shoulder stretching. Avoid hanging it in direct sunlight for extended periods to prevent fading of the blue tones.
  2. Cleaning: Due to the intricate dogtooth pattern, professional dry cleaning is recommended. If localized cleaning is necessary, use a damp, soft cloth to gently dab the affected area; never rub, as this can distort the weave.
  3. Compatibility: This garment pairs exceptionally well with neutral-toned shirts (white, light grey, or cream) and trousers made of wool, corduroy, or cotton chino fabrics.
  4. Handling: Avoid contact with sharp accessories like large metal watch bands or coarse jewelry that may pull at the knit fibers.
