Classic Blue St. Andrews Blazer 39R

post #1 of 11
Thread Starter 
... Up next is an absolutely fantastic 3 roll 2 single vent St. Andrews for Trillion Palm Beach blue blazer. This is as classic a blue blazer as you're going to get, although it's almost certainly an orphaned suit coat. Listed at size 39R I'll get to the measurements before I get to more praise: Across Chest: 20 Waist at 2nd button: 18.5 Shoulders: 17.5 Bottom of collar down: 30.5 Sleeve length: 24.75 So, praisewise, beautiful dark navy blue that goes with everything. The wool is definitely high end – I'd guess 130s (although I can't make a promise) – it drapes and feels wonderful. The usual high end geegaws: handstitched button holes, working cuffs, pickstitching, etc. I'm young and skinny and having a tailor butcher this would be a crime. SOLD shipped in the CONUS. (Jacket is not nearly as rumpled as in the pictures; just a bad bed-cum-photostudio.) Bought these Church shoes hoping they'd fit me as they're exactly what I'm looking for. Regretfully, they don't. And all the stretching in the world isn't going to make my feet smaller. Inside reads "Custom Grade; Real Cape Buck". Church also makes/made a line of suede shoes in Italy under a non-Custom Grade line that weren't as good as these. These are in good condition with almost new soles (and taps for those who like such things), a beautiful chocolate brown suede. Some rumpling before the captoe. The suede feels fantastic. Treed since I got them, tried on once, mournfully put in the closet since then. Outsole is 12'' long by 4'' wide at the widest/longest. $100 -> $90 -> SOLD (For Custom Grade!) shipped in the CONUS.

Would recommend you check that shoulder measurement, looks way too small

Chest also seems small for a 39R, no?

Yeah but this could have been altered to make it slimmer. That won't be the case with the shoulder (you'd hope).

Price drops on both items. I updated the measurements of the blazer since the above comments.

Drops on both. Surprised these haven't gone yet (although 39 is an odd size). What's summer iwthout suede shoes and blue blazers?

Does "Custom Grade" mean there is no labeled size? I don't think I could bring myself to buy a pair of shoes, however nice, based on measurements alone. Edit: Just spotted the "9C" in the title. Bump, someone buy those!

Last drop to $140. Really, this is a totally classic blazer. Beautiful Navy, 3 roll 2, handwork everywhere, what more is there?
