Windowcheck Tweed #5 Suit

2 button suit with Peak Lapels.  Traditional style/cut.  Trousers with 2" cuffs

Fall crombie in Tweed

You can never go wrong with a full suit, but why not mix it up with separates.  Or even with a crombie coat paired with odd trousers, for a smart look that has more personality than a full suit.  The Thick as Thieves crombie is meant to be worn over a shirt, rather than over a suit.  So it replaces your suit jacket as one's outerwear.  This coat is made with a lightweight suiting tweed (called Tweed 5 in the fabric section), it is not a heavy cloth, but heavier than most of our suiting options.  It is a midweight fabric, approx 12-13oz and is perfect for fall temps.  This cloth is a complex plaid pattern that is bold yet seen from a short distance begins to appear less patterned.  It is a cool grey palette with a subtle orange overcheck running throughout.  The fabric is pattern matched wherever possible as shown in closeup pics.  It is paired with a rust brown tweed trouser.  The coat is a 4 button closure with hidden front fly.  Angled pockets with ticket pocket, 2 buttons on sleeve, and a higher button stance with velvet half collar.

Tweed Doublebreast Suit

A great shot of a double breast suit in windowcheck "Tweed #5".  This is how we feel a DB should be worn!!  The warm chestnut shoes compliments his suit perfectly, very nicely done!

Tweed #5

An example of a jacket made in Tweed #5, from 2011 fall tweeds.  This jacket has Mother of Pearl buttons with patch pockets.  Unfortunately I think the lighting is off, and the photos appear a bit too "blue".  This is a cool grey shade, but does not have any blueness to it.  The swatch in the fabric page is more true to real color, but these photos give a sense of the overall scale of the plaid and its effect as a full garment.

Jacket in "Tweed #7"

Here is a full jacket made up from the newly added "Tweed #7" to give you a sense of the plaid scale on an actual garment.  This is a 2 button jacket with house style ticket pocket (overlapping)

Tweed Trouser

Here is the Tweed 115-1 (light grey Prince of Wales) in a trouser.  Frogmouth pockets, front rise higher than normal (about 11.5" on these trousers pictured, the default front rise for most heights 5'7 - 5'11" is 10.5")

New grey windowcheck tweed jacket

Here are some closeups of one of the new tweeds still available.  The base color is a med grey with tan windowcheck.  This jacket has topstiched lapels and patch pockets which are also topstitched.  The fabric is not a super heavy tweed, but is easily wearable well into late spring.  The fabric has a soft finish to it and is definitely the best tweed we've had to offer to date.
