4 Button Suit

WARNING: NOT FOR "iGENTS" or the meek at heart. 4 button suit, very high button position with angled pockets and overlapping ticket pocket. This style is the quintessential "mod suit" made popular in the mid 1960s and saw a resurgence in the mid 1990s as a "high designer" staple cut. The 2 button suit may be en vogue and de rigeur in the 2000s, but the 4 button suit will definitely set you apart as someone with "suss". Seen here accessorized with Nick Hart-Aquascutum penny collar buttondown shirt.

This suit is currently available as MTO and there are certain details that the suit comes with that are NOT customizable:
-2" notch lapels
-angled pockets w/overlapping ticket pocket
-very high button position

Varsity Jacket

Another full body shot of the Varsity Jacket. More pics to come in near future.

NEW ITEM: Varsity Jacket

This is a tailored casual jacket, based on a classic Varsity Letterman's jacket. The jacket shown here is 2 grey flannels (light and dark) but ANY 2 fabrics can be matched together. It's recommended you stick with similar weight material, but the options are up to your imagination. Buttons are large high quality Mother of Pearl with 6 front button closure and 1 functional button at the sleeve cuff. Jacket has 2" shawl lapel with side slash handwarmer pockets. Adjustable side tab detail (actual jacket will not have the 2nd button as the side tab is aesthetic and not meant to function as such). This is a MTO jacket based on your specs, cost depends on fabric chosen, but most fabrics will sell for $320 shipped conus.
