1) GORGEOUS Summer Check Jacket
SOLD
It's very rare that I get stumped by an article of clothing, but I admit defeat here. This beautiful jacket was made by Trinount Clothes--and I know absolutely nothing about them, except that they're an old-established New England firm, and this I only know from the label.
Despite the relative obscurity of the brand, this is a truly wonderful summer jacket. Tailored in New England, the patterning and colourway of this jacket are lovely--a beautiful gingham-esque check in sky blue, berry red, and tan, on a crisp cream background. This jacket is half-lined and has a single center vent; it has subtle darts and a three button cuffs. It's in absolutely excellent condition.
Asking just $39, or offer.
Measurements:
Chest: 21 1/5
Sleeve: 24 (+1 1/2)
SHoulder: 18
Length: 30 1/2
2) CLASSIC Brooks Brothers 3/2 sack in pincord.

It was, of course, Union made in the USA, and is in excellent condition.

3) Harry Ballot 3/2 chambray sack with patch pockets
Ballot was one of the major Ivy League clothiers of the Golden Age, located in bucolic Princeton, and this shows why. A wonderful shade of vintage sky blue, this is redolent of long hot summers of long ago, when depending on your views either Goldwater or the Kennedys were the hope for the future....
This is a lovely and rare 3/2 sack with patch pockets--a very desirable combination that's too rarely seen. Cut from what appears to be chambray cotton, this has the clasic two button cuff, is halflined, and has a centre vent. It has very natural shoulders. This is a truly lovely Ivy summer jacket! It does have a flaw--some minor puckering to the right label, as shown in the main picture. Because of this, this is in Very Good condition, and hence is just
$27, or offer.

Sleeve: 24 3/4 (+1 3/4)
Shoulder: 17 1/2

It's a contemporary two button model with subtle darts, a single centre vent and a quater-lining. It has four button cuffs.

SOLD
It doesn't get much better than this! First, this is cut from all cotton seersucker in classic blue and white stripes.

The trousers are flat-front and uncuffed.
As well as being made by Corbin this was originally sold by DiTorio's of Pennington, NJ--an extremely trad. clothier, now long gone, that catered to the more rurally inclined trads of neighbouring Princeton. Pennington itself is a gorgeous pre-Revolutionary War small town; the cemetery on Main Street is bounded by a wall that British troops exercised their horses over in 1775, and Frederick Forsyth set the start of his novel Avenger in Pennington, as embodying classic small town America.

14) BEAUTIFUL linen jacket by Adolfo Dominguez 54
Far better known in Europe and the UK than in the USA, the Spanish designer Adolfo Dominguez is best know for his elegant unstructured clothes for both men and women--his retail outlet in Covent Garden, London, is easily one of the better shops in a largely tourist-orientated location. And, naturally, given the quality and classic nature of these clothes they're rather expensive, starting at around $100 for a shirt and climbing rapidly.
Even if you're not familiar with the brand this jacket will show at a glance why it's so popular. Cut from pure linen in a beautiful and classic black, grey, and cream gingham check, this jacket has a lovely unstructured feel to it--perfect for later Spring and Summer. It is half-canvassed, fully lined, and features twin vents; it also has beautifully narrow lapels and a three button front, together with subtle darting and natural shoulders, all of which (well, maybe not the darts!) made this reminiscent of the Golden Age of TNSIL style. There is a small blue thread detail to the lapel, which either is a feature of the jacket, or else was added to indicate that its original owner earned a Sporting Blue at either Oxford or Cambridge University.
This jacket is in excellent condition.
