Alan Paine Dunswell Mens Gilet

Alan Paine Dunswell Mens Gilet

The Alan Paine Men’s Dunswell Gilet combines the practical features of a shooting waistcoat with the smart appearance of a tailored country gilet. Its water-repellent fabric helps shed light rain and moisture, while the regular fit provides room for comfortable layering.

Designed with shooting in mind, the Dunswell has shoulder patches that provide a practical contact point when mounting a gun. Large gusseted pockets give you useful storage for shotgun cartridges while moving around the ground, while separate handwarmer pockets provide somewhere to warm your hands between shots.

The gilet uses an 80% cotton, 18% polyester and 2% elastane fabric, giving it a soft, structured feel with some stretch. The water-repellent finish adds protection from light moisture without turning the garment into a heavy weatherproof layer. This makes the Dunswell useful as part of a shooting outfit when conditions are changeable.

Its styling also sets it apart from a purely functional shooting waistcoat. The Nehru collar features soft suede piping and a suede inner collar, adding texture around the neckline and giving the gilet a more refined country appearance. It works naturally with shooting shirts, knitwear and country jackets.
