This is a lovely bold little number, probably suit Oliver with his west coast vibe and lifestyle.

I think it is a lovely piece, would look great with some grey flannels, loafers and a plain oxford. Too big in the body for me, otherwise I would be tempted. That and the fact I am skint?

Somehow, it'll be mine.

I normally wouldn't have posted that link, but for the price I'm not too worried.

Ah who am I kidding - don't know who's lurking around and reading these forums so edited nonetheless!

Re: Ebay / Etsy alert

Well that was fast - the jacket's all mine! hahaha

I know it's still insanely high, but I negotiated them down to $250 and turns out I know the seller (bought a Pendleton robe from her last year) so she was happy to work with me. Probably could've gotten it down even lower but it's worth every penny!

Now I WANT to post a photo to show off, but the listing's been taken down. Oh well... you'll see it in the ILSFT thread soon!

I guess it's time to move the 3 dead stock 39S madras jackets I've been sitting on.

Good job Oliver.  That thing's right up your alley.  I truly admire your flamboyance.

It was.... magnificent, epic, beautiful, momentous, wildly robust in its euphoric madras effervescence.

I had a watch on that (favorite) but just to watch and admire - it's a cracker, out of my budget haha. Lovely stuff, now go get that Paisley number, you know you want it.

Nice one Oliver.  Bold as hell. I can't imagine a better man for it.
