^ I have an almost identical Cricketeer sport coat that's a touch too small on me (either a small length or it was altered and screwed up at some point) and I was really hoping to replace it. According to the seller, the shoulders measure 18" across the back; I instructed her on how to properly measure.

If Aquascutum made that jacket i'd be the first in line, I see where you're coming from but I didn't think that myself shame it's too long for me or I would have snapped it up.

My favorite is the Zephyr Weight sport coat that TyphoidJones has listed in his Etsy shop, which seems like it's been sitting there for years. There's a couple of really nice ones on Etsy but all seem to be in the 41-42 range. I see them as the American-woven alternative to madras cloth. I'd really like to find a muted red and navy gingham on cream canvas.

Mate of mine is one of the owners of Several, used to be senior sales at Fred Perry, lovely chap. They get some nice bit and their own stuff is well made, shame they don't have more in the way of Ivy details, collar might be good on these shirts but not sure the slim fit is that popular. http://several.co/collections/shirts/products/button-down-shirt-chambray
