TRAD 3/2 Suit, 38R with flat fronts. I believe White was quite big within the Yale community.

Agreed, in fact I'll post a fit pic of me in mine as soon as the pants get back from the tailor. :slayer:

Love Norman Hilton. I was ogling my NH wool/cashmere navy blazer when I got home from work today. I'm desperate to wear it ASAP.

Yeah, these are pretty rad. I get the hype of grenadine now. The weave is amazing. I wish I had more money to spend.
Well, if you're just looking for grenadines to wear, not flip, then check this out from putthison.com:

I just received 2 grenadines from Chipp2 and wore a chocolate brown one today. Really fabulous ties for around $50 / each shipped and they got here in like 2 days.

EDIT: Speaking of putthison, now I really want a wool shawl cardigan. Dammit.

What is their quality compared to a company like Drake's? Pm, if that is more appropriate. Thanks!

What size? I have a few in the 41 to 44 range (including heavy flannel) i haven't listed that I've held for like 9 moths....Gray pinstripe and maybe a solid...possibly a few others. PM me if you are in the size range.

Well I was intrigued by that posted one because it is a 38R like me. However, I do know a size 44 person in your town that might be interested. I'll have him get at you if he is.

Capnwes, you requested sole shots of the shell wings I found. Here they are at the end of a long day. I included a shot of the heel, but I don't think it is original.

Yep, It was a respected menswear shop. It's funny that I found a SC from a buttersoft English tweed ( or tweed weave- feels like cashmere almost) woven for Norman Hilton with throat latch today from White. Left another one since I was not sure what to do with two. Won't fit as usual, a 41.
I got sooo much stuff that my spouse called me a hoarder finally. Well, when she does it it's official. So i gotta start taking pics.
Oh, I also got a cavalry twill navy 3/2 sack Yale coop blazer and a nice shape AE Stratton madalion captoe in black 9.5C. All will be available when I can get down to photo.
