Fit issue
Hi all, I think I know the answer already but I figured I would defer to the experts. I’ve been buying size 42 sport coats. 44 seems too big. I’ve been using the same tailor for adjustments. He’s been in business for a long time and makes bespoke suits, jackets, shirts, etc. I took a brand...- ww21943

Suit fit check
Hi all, I wore a BB 1818 Fitzgerald fit navy suit that I haven’t worn in many years. Last month I brought it to a tailor to get adjusted. The jacket was supposed to have been let out and I think it either wasn’t or not let out enough. I haven’t gained weight since then, if anything I’ve lost...- ww21943

Is this a sport coat or orphaned suit jacket?
Hi all, I am trying to build a closet of sport coats. I only have one so far. I’m looking for a navy blazer and found this herringbone pattern jacket that I like. Is this used piece a sport coat or orphaned suit jacket? Also, can I use this kind of material in the summer? Or only fall/winter?- ww21943

Might have bought a lemon
Hi all, Long story short, I gained a lot of weight (size 42 to 48 jacket) and had to buy a new blazer for a job. I thought I found a steal for $13 shipped! It’s a Brooks Brothers Brookease blazer that was advertised as being black. I thought to myself “there is no way BB made a black blazer.”...- ww21943

Bought my first Hickey Freeman. Addison Gray pinstripe
Hello all, I haven't bought any fine clothes in awhile and stumbled upon a Nordstrom Rack today. I decided to browse and I wasn't too impressed by the selection of men's clothes.

Found what I think is a vintage Brooks number 1 sack coat.
Hello, This is my first thread. I've been a long time lurker. I started visiting thrift stores recently. I haven't found much but I did purchase a Brooks Brothers gray herringbone coat.
