Trimingham's of Bermuda was founded in 1842, and closed in 2005. It was Bermuda's most famous and upscale store, and was a firm favourite among the Ivy set that vacationed in Bermuda or took cruises that stopped off there. Like The English Sports Shop of Bermuda it specialized in traditional British and Ivy clothing, and this blazer is a lovely example of its wares. Cut from a very lightweight cloth that's a wool-poly blend--although this just feels like very lightweight wool to the touch--this is a standard two button front jacket with darting and a centre vent. It is half-canvassed and half-lined, and carries Trimingham's signature brass "ship" buttons. It has very natural shoulders. This is in excellent condition except for a small strip of residue on the shoulder from where some fool attached a strip of masking tape to use as a price-tag! This will readily come out with dry-cleaning, however.
This is a true bargain at just $29, boxed and shipped in the USA. International inquiries welcome, with shipping at reduced cost.
