Piper / Drummer Off-White Doublet Jacket - Cream Wool Band Doublet - The Off-White Piper / Drummer Doublet is the traditional cream-colored band jacket worn by pipers and drummers for year-round use. Lighter than pure white and more formal than cotton, this cream / off-white wool doublet is the perfect mid-weight uniform that works for both summer and winter parades.
This is the most popular color for Scottish pipe bands in the UK and Canada - less likely to show dirt than pure white, but still bright and uniform on parade.
Specifications:
Premium Cream Fabric: Made in Off-White / Cream Melton Wool or Doeskin Wool - heavier and more formal than cotton, but not as stark as pure white. 18-20 oz for a sharp military drape.
Gold Braid Trim: Elegant gold soutache braid on collar, shoulder wings, cuffs, and Inverness flaps. The classic piper / drummer pattern - smart but not as heavily embroidered as the Royal Gold Doublet.

Chrome Button Front: Full front with gold-plated ball buttons, creating the iconic doublet silhouette.
