1) GORGEOUS Spring plaid 3/2 sack from The English Shop of Princeton Canvassed This is absolutely beautiful, and has been languishing in my closet for some time--even during my FatTweedy days I never wore this for fear of spoiling it in some way! It was Made in the USA by Harrison Ltd for The English Shop of Princeton--one of the quartet of Ivy stores in Princeton of which only Hilton survives. This is fully canvassed and half-lined, and is beautifully cut with a high 3/2 lapel roll. It has a very natural shoulder. The fabric is wonderful--my pictures utterly fail to capture it. This is a wonderful mid-weight tweed which would be perfect for Spring! Asking $65, or offer. This is tagged a 46XL, and runs in the upper44-46 range. Measurements: Chest: 22 Sleeve: 27 (+2) Shoulder: 18 1/2 Length: 34 
2) NWT Lauren in silk and wool Canvassed This is absolutely new and unworn, with all of the original tags still attached. All of the external pockets are still basted shut. It's a lovely blend of 52/48 wool making it perfect for Spring and Summer, and the colourway of the fabric is also terrific, being a versatile mini-houndstooth with a very subtle overcheck. This jacket is half-canvassed and fully lined with a single vent. Obviously, being NWt and unworn it's in immaculate condition. The original retail was $325; I'm asking just $65 > 60, or offer--shipped! Tagged a 41R Measurements: Chest: 21 1/2 Shoulder: 25 1/4 (+2 1/2) Shoulder: 19 Length: 31 
3) Cartier classic navy blazer with patch pockets Canvassed SOLD Yes, THAT Cartier! I had no idea that Cartier made blazers--I'd expected them to have branched out into ties and pocketsquares, but nothing quite as substantial as a blazer. This was made for Jack Lang, the premier custom clothier of Trenton, back when Trenton was THE place to be in New Jersey, and people flocked there from Princeton and the surrounding areas to rub shoulders with the major Tri-State industrialists, politicians on both the regional and national level (Presidents used to eat in Trenton's steakhouses--now closed), and local sports stars--Joe DiMaggio's favourite pizza place was just down the road. This jacket is a classic darted navy blazer, with patch pockets, two-button closure, three-button cuffs. The buttons have a decent heft, as you'd expect, but they're by no means overly heavy. The jacket itself is beautifully cut, half-canvassed, and half-lined with a single vent. It has contrast piping in the interior seams. It's in excellent condition, and was Made in the USA. Measurements: Chest: 21 1/4 Sleeve: 25 1/8 (+1 7/8) Shoulder: 19 Length: 30 1/2 
4) Hickey Freeman "Burma" Spring/Summer Madras-y jacket Canvassed SOLD This is a great jacket for Spring and Summer! Made by Hickey Freeman customized clothes, this jacket is half-lined and half-canvassed with a single vent. There's no fabric content listed, but it seems to be a cotton/linen blend. It was made in the USA. The plaid is wonderful--and what Trad could resist a Burma jacket for summer? 
Measurements: Chest: 22 1/4 Sleeve: 23 3/4 (+2 5/8) Shoulder: 18 3/4 Length: 30 1/4 
5) Haspel Spring/Summer jacket SOLD This is a lovely jacket for Summer! Made in the USA by Haspel, this jacket is quarter-lined with a center vent. There's no fabric content listed, but it seems to be a linen-cotton blend. It's in excellent condition--a rarity with light-coloured summer Haspels! Measurements: Chest: 22 1/4 Sleeve: 23 3/4 (+2 1/8) Shoulder: 19 Length: 30 3/8 
6) Bespoke CASHMERE tweed with working cuffs and elbow patches! Lots of handwork!Canvassed SOLD This is terrific! Made by Sanitate Tailors of West 55th in New York (billed as "The Savile Row Tailors of New York"), this beautiful jacket is clearly cut from very sort, luxurious cashmere--NOT the cheap stuff that's coming in from China now--although there's no fabric content listed. (As one would expect from a bespoke garment.) The hand is simply wonderful, as it the patterning of the fabric--a lovely versatile grey-cream mini-herringbone. The jacket is half-canvassed and fully lined, and features suede elbow patches, working surgeon's cuffs--and a awful lot of very detailed, very beautiful handwork throughout. There are a few marks on the left-hand elbow patch (shown),but otherwise this beautiful jacket is in excellent condition. Measurements: Chest: 20 Sleeve: 23 1/2 (+2) Shoulder: 18 1/4 Length: 30 1/8
