It was / is a 40R, so it's only one size down - should just be a small amount out of the back and side seams and drop the sleeves as far as they'll go

Fantastic black Crocodile case - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=320498896714

This seller has lots of T&A ties, £27 BIN with the current exchange rate seems a fair price - http://clothes.shop.ebay.co.uk/Mens-...=p3911.c0.m282

Nice set of diamond and gold Asprey vintage cufflinks - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=150421855479

This is one of those items--a Swaine, Adeney briefcase--that makes me wish I had a real salary, rather than an academic one (pun intended!)

Sometime in the 1980s for a short time I believe...

Cole Haan really went through some ups and downs. At one point in the early 1990s they were even selling Russia Calf leathergoods!

How can someone know enough to mention broguing and gimping and yet omit any reference to shell cordovan?

I don't think they're shell. The auction says they are pebble grain, and AE has NEVER made a shell cordovan pebble grain. They have, however, accidentally put shell cordovan soles on a calfskin model.

Any idea if these run true to their marked US size?
