Navy Flannel Blazers - It's Time!

The navy blazer is one of the items in your wardrobe which needs to change with the weather. Gone is the cotton and linen, Flannel is your friend in cooler temps. Done by Saks Fifth Avenue for their legendary "Update Shop," this vintage example knocks the socks off of anything they're making today. Made in the USA with a traditional cut. Natural shoulder, full canvassed construction - just buy it already! Harder-to-find size 38 Long!

Come and Join Me In My Paisley Dreams

Well...here's a one-of-a-kind piece!

Wild mid-scale gray/blue paisley. It's untagged but is certainly cashmere, made by Angelo Roma: tailor to 70's-era Bond. (http://thesuitsofjamesbond.com/?p=1494)

The jacket has a ticket pocket and insane lining, matched inside of the pockets. The cuffs are double-button non-functional and appear to be hand stitched.

Angelo was a former manager at Brioni - what a legacy!

Measures a 42 Regular - Bid on it here!
