"GORGEOUS BESPOKE CASHMERE GLEN PLAID JACKET by Tony the Tailor of Shanghai"

*I originally bought this from our very own Tweedydon a year ago but it hasn't gotten enough wear to justify keeping. Here's his original description:

"This is absolutely gorgeous! There's no fabric content listed, but it's clearly very, very soft and very, very luxurious cashmere--as befits a jacket made by one of the premier bespoke tailors of Shanghai, Tony the Tailor, who has clothed in the past Clint Eastwood and Sylvester Stallone, as well as Danny Glover.

The colourway and patterning are beautiful--I'll leave the pictures to speak for themselves. The cut is also wonderful--a contemporary two button jacket with beautiful darting, this jacket has the ever-desirable three patch pockets! It is also fully lined, half-canvassed, and has a single centre vent. It is in absolutely excellent condition. It is missing one of the cuff buttons on the left sleeve....easily fixed by converting it to single button cuffs!"

I can confirm that it definitely feels like cashmere and the condition is excellent. The pattern is fantastic and reminiscent of a Russell plaid with the red accents. A perfect jacket for the trad guy who wants to go a touch bolder for spring.

Chest: 19 1/2
Sleeve: 24 1/2 (+2)
Shoulder: 18
Length: 30 1/4

I feel like this would work for either a 38R or 40R.

$75 w/ shipping included (my original cost)
