The Incredibly Simple Beauty of the J. Keydge Slack Jacket
Let's hope these haven't disappeared from the scene during the transitional period between the closing of J.Simons and the opening of the new shop. I wish I'd invested in more than two. The shoulder... the slouch... the lapel... the cuff-buttons... even the damn label...

I hear the same jacket is now reborn under another name & will be found at JS & online.
Not long until September.
Sta Prest !

Oh, David, my boy, you're missing out. But I bought my first over the phone. John just said "You're about the same size as me" and the deal was struck. Maybe the new online store will yield something.

David!
My adopted Jewish name back to me once more!
(In truth always my original second name after yet another Goy Uncle...)

Long hours of poring over ancient texts in preparation for the Final Conflict between Russell and Chens.

Seconded re the Keydge slack - I bought four over the years from JS - cord, moleskin, linen and cotton. Perfect.

Re: The Incredibly Simple Beauty of the J. Keydge Slack Jacket
It is an item I regret never buying from J.Simons..... I have a couple of slacks, but not J.Keydge's. An omission I hope to put right with my Christmas wish-list

Love them, but they would be even better in Short sizes.
Mr formerly known as Keydge, if you're reading this - sizes S please. Thanks.
