The prototype will be made based on this concept, just havent figured out how many buttons, but I'm thinking of a 1x2 and a 2x4 for starters. This jacket will definitely not be a work friendly piece and I am not planning on deviating to make it so.

Good. Now get on it so I can order a suit with both single and double-breasted jackets.

That's not where I got the pic from, but yes you're right, it was used on the cover of Dancehall '69, in colorized version

Awwww yeeeeaaaah. Now I play the waiting game. It does feel like tempting fate to pay an online solicitor named "Thick as Thieves" (Note for those not paying attention: this image is just found, not related to TaT or Get Smart in any way)

omg...I finally finished all 80 pages of this thread...good thing its reading week. I'm ridiculously interested in buying a suit. My last suit was for high school prom....... :S

Hey GS/Jason would I just PM you to try to get this going?

And Water the suit looks amazing. Just had a question. What changes did you make in terms of lapel, length, trousers, etc.

Thanks!!!

I've been lurking all over for a inexpensive suit for my graduation. I'll definitely be making an order soon.

Jason and I had an e-mail conversation where we discussed what I was looking for with the suit. As I said, all I had in mind was 60s Savile Row. Thankfully, he completely understood what I was after.

I lengthened the coat a touch and went with 2.75" lapels. Other than that the ticket pocket does not overlap and they are straight rather than slanted.

The only other change I remember right now from the default was side pockets rather than frog mouths on the trousers.

Thanks, Get Smart. I'll be in touch with you sometime in March after I get a bit settled in my last quarter.

So after reading through much of this thread and other TaT-related stuff on the net, I was persuaded to start an SF account and to place an order with Jason. He was, as others have pointed out, very responsive via e-mail. I can't wait to get the suit!
