Hey All!
So I am a Trad confused!
Picked up a really nice Brooks Brothers Makers Brooksease suit whilst thrifting; definitely has canvas, nice lapels, flat-front pants, grey flannel. A classic. However, I am reading two things on the forums about BB: One is that the Makers label denotes the highest quality, next to Golden Fleece; others are saying Brooksease is on the cheaper end of the spectrum. I know from the look, feel, and quality, that it's well-made. It also says "100% Wool". I'm guessing it's vintage. Any thoughts from anyone regarding what, at first blush, would seem to be an oxymoron?
Thanks and Happy Holidays!
