Denim Gilet
LIGHTENING Denim Gilet
£395.00
Size X-Small
Product Details
The LIGHTENING gilet hits with intention — gold metallic tweed laid over upcycled denim, red vegan leather trim cutting through, and gold spike hardware finishing the line. It's a piece that earns its £395 in the craft, not the label.
- Base fabric: upcycled mid-weight denim with gold metallic tweed panelling
- Red vegan leather trim, hand-cut and applied at each panel edge
- Gold spike studs, individually hand-set for precision alignment
- Acrylic paint detailing and patch work — no two pieces are finished the same way
- True-to-size silhouette across XS–XL; sits relaxed on the body with a clean shoulder line
- Button fastening; dry clean only to preserve the metallic tweed and hardware
Made in the UK. Part of the S&V Street Lux range — garments built for wear, not display.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How does the LIGHTENING gilet fit across sizes?
A: Runs true to UK sizing from XS through XL. The body is relaxed without being oversized — it layers cleanly over fitted pieces or sits well on its own.
Q: Does the gold metallic tweed shed or pull?
A: Quality metallic tweed is tightly woven and does not shed with normal wear. Dry cleaning is required — machine washing will damage both the metallic threads and the acrylic paint detailing.
Q: Can I have the LIGHTENING made in a custom size or with different hardware?
A: Yes. We take bespoke orders across the S&V range — get in touch to discuss hardware colours, sizing, and any personalisation.
