More tweed jacets - RL Polo 40 and 42R, noname 36R shetlair

ALL GONE
I happened upon more tweed jackets to feed the frenzy!
**SOLD **
The first is a brown herringbone Polo, tagged 42R

The next two are both gray herringbone Polo
They both have Corneliani tags
** SOLD **
The first, I'll refer to as belted (has a faux half belt in the back) with flapped, buttoned patch pockets, including the chest pocket; it also has a buttoned latch at the neck


** SOLD **
The second is the identical fabric, though slightly different style
It is also 3B, center vent, though unlined; it has flapped patch pockets, though no buttons, neck latch, nor rear belt

** SOLD **
The last is a noname brand (Hilfiger if you must know) tweed jacket that caught my eye because of the fabric; also it is tagged a 36R
The jacket is made in Italy of Zegna shetlair (I've never seen this fabric in other people's jackets) - 50% merino wool / 40% Mohair / 10% cashmere

wouldn't it be better to own rather than drool?

Yes, it would, and it is my size, too. However, I have a closet full of tweeds in a climate that's already not conducive to them, and it's also more money than I'm prepared to spend. It's certainly worth it, but my spending priorities are elsewhere at the moment. Alas.

I'm sure some tasteful soul will snap it up, though.

as an impartial observer i have the first jacket and i like it a lot. lovely shape, good waist suppression. hearty tweed just as subscribed. this coat can take some wear. and its more like a 4roll3. It took me 15 minutes to realize there was a 4th button as it was hidden by the lapel.
