Release Summary: Burton announces their new Heritage collection,
a stylish range of quality contemporary suiting, born out of a
passion for traditional tailoring methods
Press
Release Body: Burton, the leading UK menswear
retailer, has announced their new Heritage collection. This latest
range of stylish quality contemporary suiting is born out of the
long held Burton passion for traditional tailoring methods. The
collection will be featured in selected stores and online throughout
the UK this autumn alongside Burton’s mainline
and concession tailoring.
Burton
has sought to ensure attention to detail is key throughout the
Heritage
collection.
These
latest mens
jackets feature a half canvas construction which forms to
the body to give the wearer more comfort. The fabric selections
reflect a strong attention to detail with the use of traditional
Prince of Wales check and pin stripes inspired by the Burton mens
clothing archives.
The
fabric selection and labeling of the mens
suits take their inspiration from original 1940s, 50s and
60s Burton garments which are then brought up
to date with a sharper modern fit. The suits are made from pure
merino wool and woven in the British mill first used by
Montague Burton over 70 years ago and feature intricate
detailing such as trouser brace buttons and an embroidered Burton
"B" on the under collar.
Montage
Burton once said, "Good clothes develop
a man's sense of self respect", and the Heritage
collection continues his legacy by offering a superior garment
at an accessible price.
