Sorry to rehash an old thread but I wanted to ask a question.

Having my bases covered with corduroy jackets, I had a thought that gray would be a nice color to have. Gray seems to be a nice neutral backdrop for repp ties, etc. as I always go for my gray herringbone tweed. Why not gray cord for a change?

Any thoughts? Are cord blazers in gray even made RTW? Thanks.

I have a pair of charcoal cord pants that look just fine to me. I say, go for it.

To inject a totally banal comment, corduroy sport jackets tend to make me think of a legal services guy I know.  Wears them frequently or, in the alternative, some sort of tweed.  He's really sort of the spitting image of the ex-hippie (not sure he's actually quite old enough to claim that, though) gone to law school.  Does the grubby, lefty, semi-professorial law thing perfectly.  Shabby dresser.  Good guy and a good lawyer.  I recently saw him in a grey pin-striped suit.  I accused him of going corporate.  He told  me that I was still first to go when the revolution comes.
