3) Custom-tailored Zegna Cashmere Tweed jacket with Bracken and Chestnut overchecking.
c. 38, 40S. Measurements:
Chest: 20 1/2
Sleeve: 23 1/2 (+2)
Shoulder: 17 3/4
Length: 29
This jacket--and its brother, which will be posted next--are absolutely gorgeous!
Made by Brothers Preta (a very old-school family-owned Italian custom tailors in Fairlawn, NJ) this gorgeous jacket is cut from absolutely exquisite Zegna cashmere from Inner Mongolia. This fabric is cashmere as it used to be--thick, soft, and luxurious, not the thin stuff that is so plentiful in mall stores today.
The patterning and colouring of the cloth do full justice to its quality--a wonderful base of brown and dark rich cream in a twill weave, with a wonderful Autumnal overcheck in rich chestnut and bracken. This cloth is truly beautiful--my pictures don't do it justice at all!
The quality of the jacket also does justice to the cloth. Cut as a contemporary two-button jacket with subtle darts, this is replete with handwork throughout. It is unvented--in Flusser-approved style--and features two deep patch pockets on the front. It is fully canvassed, and fully lined, and is a bargain at just
$65, or offer, boxed, shipped, and insured in the US. International inquiries are welcome, with shipping at cost!
