The English Shop of Princeton was one of the Big Five Ivy clothiers located in Princeton during the Golden Age of Ivy Style--its closest competitors were Langrock and Hilton--and this lovely jacket shows why. Hand-tailored, this is a classic 3/2 sack tweed with a lovely lapel roll. The cloth is wonderful--a complex broken bone herringbone with vertical striping in chestnut brown and sky blue. It is fully canvassed and half-lined, and has two button cuffs. It has a single centre vent, and was almost certainly made in the USA.
It does have a small ink stain on the lining by the left-hand pocket; this gives it a rather professorial character, but because of this it is only in Very Good condition, and so is just $39, or offer, boxed and shipped in the USA... a bargain for a Hand Tailored 3/2 sack tweed from The English Shop!
