picture would help. Most of the chocolate brown tweeds I've seen tend to have reddish patches fwiw.

Thanks. I haven't seen any reddish patches during my search. Only really glaring bright red. Do you know any place online to buy them?

I added a picture of the jacket to the original post.

For anyone that drives with a clutch. Do you remove your leather footwear while driving to stop extra creasing on your left shoe?

i wouldn't do premade patches, it doesn't only widen your colour options.

Would brown (unpleated) trousers go with a pink/blue striped shirt?? What about shoes, brown or black?

Brown trousers go well with pink shirts, not sure about pink/blue striped, I would probably have to see the shirt and the trousers to judge.

With brown trousers you should always wear brown shoes, or possibly burgundy or some other colour, but never black.

Can someone link me to a thread with good procedures that tells me clean the inside of a steam iron reservoir/water tank? I want to clean mine out because leaking a few months ago. I don't plan on using the steamer setting anymore, and will purchase a spray bottle.

I don't think they were Black Fleece. Retail was $80 marked down to $40. I don't think Black Fleece has the size tag stitched into the collar. Maybe they were, but were from a very early season.

What is my face shape? What glasses/hairstyles would go well with it?

Well suited for what you're wearing. I'm not a fan of longwings though. Just my preference.

I don't if there's a thread on it, but I run some white vinegar through it once a year to clean up deposits. If yours is exceptionally dirty or clogged up some CLR cleaner might help.
