Green Velvet Kenmore Doublet | Scottish Highland Jacket

Green Velvet Kenmore Doublet — Scottish Highland Jacket

Bring rich, luxurious texture to your Highland wardrobe. This Kenmore Doublet uses plush green velvet throughout, tailored in the classic doublet silhouette. As a result, it offers a distinctive, forest-toned alternative to the purple velvet version in this collection.

A Design Rooted in Highland Tradition

The Kenmore doublet takes its name from Kenmore in Perthshire and remains a popular semi-formal jacket style in Highland dress. Scottish men wear it widely for weddings, Highland games, and formal kilt outfits. This piece follows that tradition closely, using solid green velvet for a rich, classic finish. Notched lapels and a straight hem give the doublet its characteristic silhouette.

A Rich, Classic Finish

Deep green velvet pairs naturally with many clan tartans, since green appears in a large number of traditional patterns. Therefore, this colorway works especially well for buyers wanting a doublet that complements their existing tartan rather than contrasting sharply against it. Antique bronze buttons and shoulder epaulettes add classic Highland detailing, while a welt breast pocket completes the tailored look.

Premium Craftsmanship & Materials

Craftsmen build this doublet from plush green velvet, tailored for a sharp yet comfortable fit. It holds its shape well while adding a soft, rich texture to the overall look. Notched lapels in the same velvet fabric give the jacket a cohesive, elegant finish. Additionally, epaulette tabs at each shoulder allow for optional rank or clan pin badges.

Care & Maintenance

Dry clean this doublet only, to preserve the velvet pile and tailored structure. Additionally, store it on a padded hanger to help maintain its shape. Finally, avoid pressing directly on the velvet, since this can flatten the fabric’s texture.
