The Brook Taverner Busso Mens Waistcoat is a sophisticated addition to any professional wardrobe, forming a key part of the esteemed Sophisticated Collection.

Key Features

- Five-button front: The classic five-button closure provides a secure, tailored fit that maintains a neat silhouette throughout the day.
- Two welt pockets: These discreet pockets offer practical storage for small essentials without disrupting the clean, professional lines of the waistcoat.
- Machine washable: The fabric is engineered for convenience, allowing for easy domestic care without the need for specialist cleaning.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a technical blend of 54% Polyester, 44% Wool, and 2% LYCRA® Elastane, the Busso waistcoat is built for durability and comfort. The high wool content provides a natural, breathable feel and a premium texture that is synonymous with quality tailoring. The polyester component adds essential strength and crease resistance, ensuring the garment looks as crisp at the end of a shift as it did at the start.
A critical element of this waistcoat's performance is the inclusion of Lycra. This provides a subtle stretch that allows for a greater range of movement, preventing the garment from feeling restrictive when reaching or moving. This makes it an exceptionally practical choice for active professionals who cannot afford to be limited by their clothing.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
To truly make this garment part of your corporate identity, we recommend our professional embroidery service. Embroidery provides a superior, long-lasting finish that complements the premium wool-blend fabric, making it ideal for company logos or staff names. Our in-house team in Telford uses state-of-the-art machinery to ensure your branding is rendered with precision.
While print is an option for larger, bold designs, the textured navy check of the Busso waistcoat is most naturally suited to the prestige of embroidery. Since 1976, MyWorkwear has been helping businesses achieve a professional look through expert customisation, and this waistcoat provides the perfect canvas for a high-quality finish.
Use Cases
The Busso waistcoat is perfectly suited for front-of-house roles in the hospitality industry, corporate office environments, and professional service sectors. It is an ideal choice for management teams or anyone requiring a formal uniform that stands up to the demands of daily wear while maintaining a high standard of presentation.

Practical Advice
For the best appearance, ensure the waistcoat is worn over a well-fitted formal shirt. The tailored cut of the Sophisticated Collection is designed to follow the lines of the body, so we recommend selecting your standard chest size. The 2% Lycra content will provide a small amount of give for a comfortable, contemporary fit.
Caring for your product
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your waistcoat, it is important to follow the care instructions carefully. This garment is machine washable, which is a significant advantage for busy professionals. Regular washing at the appropriate temperature will keep the fabric fresh and prevent the build-up of oils that can damage natural wool fibres over time.
Do not use bleach when cleaning this garment, as it will break down the wool and polyester fibres, leading to premature wear and loss of colour in the navy check pattern. When drying, it is advisable to avoid high heat; instead, hang the waistcoat to air dry to maintain its shape and the integrity of the Lycra elastane. A light iron on a cool setting will help keep the welt pockets and front panels looking sharp and professional.
