Re: Recent Old Ivy Finds

Thanks, BB. Was pretty surprised when I stumbled across it. Spent months searching and just went and popped up on ebay. Fingers crossed but measurements looked to be absolutely perfect. Shall keep an eye out for any 40 reg stuff and send it your way!

Come to think of it, I've a navy blue collar-pin-able brooks shirt, I might wear with it. Looks pretty versatile, anyway.

Awesome suit, and jacket, too.

I was under the impression Brooks didn't do the hook? That the vent and sleeve buttons were different.

Good skills there Colin! It's a good feeling when a vintage purchase you are really excited about arrives ... and it all fits and lives up to expectation.

Re: Recent Old Ivy Finds

It's taken a lot of trial and error to find the right size over the years, Woof - and always a chance it's completely off in measurements!

BB, for me, finding suits with long enough legs with cuffs which don't need letting out, has long been a challenge - this was a stroke of luck. If it helps, they'll only be about a three week window in the UK to actually wear a lightweight suit.....
