1. Chu Herringbone 50/50 wool/linen sportcoat. 3-roll-2. Dual vents, ticket pocket, fully lined, great gorge placement IMO, unfinished funtionalable sleeves (I just noticed the extra buttons are missing). Color is a "natural", I guess: off-white oatmeal ground with light brown herringbone (close up of the button shows color, pattern and texture best). Think of suede bucks, that's the color. As you can see from the inner pocket tag, this is from Chu's mysterious new manufacturer, and I can feel the improvement in this case. Mr. Sid's tag calls it a 40R, but the inner tag says 38, so check the measurements.
