What I also find interesting about it, is that it will soon appear at my door. Then I'll need to get the sleeves chopped down to size. Thanks again AC!
I'm taking a bit of a chance on it, but sage + 6 button is worth giving it a try. It may fit closer to a 15 if it shrank in the wash. If it's too big I'll pass it along to someone on here. The neck may just be too big for a tie.
NOS Brooks Bros Vintage Knitwear all made in these here British Isles, Pricey but very very nicey !
Including a Killer dark green Shetland in a 46 chest.
It's laughable that the US seller has stated that the four Shetlands are made in England
which is of-course wrong ,they are made in Scotland as one would expect.

Here's a 3 piece cord suit by Brooks. It's a sack but I can't tell if its a 3/2. It looks well-worn but right now it's at $1.00.

I just got screwed out of three perfect Norm Hilton things so someone should get this as retribution! I know a lot of cats here have been searching for cord suits.
check it, 38R, Harvard Coop 3/2 natural shoulder gray herringbone Harris Tweed Amalgamated union-made in USA sack sport coat.
look past the missing button and see the shoulders and the shape, this thing has got it .....
I'd go for it myself but it's too small for me.
