I love this sportcoat, but I'm trying to consolidate my wardrobe, editing out things I don't wear enough. This one is just too big for me. It's a size 39R, and I'm really a 38. It pains me to get rid of the thing, as it is one of the coolest coats I've seen. Hickey Freeman full canvas, partial lining, three open patch pockets and side vents. Made from 90% cashmere, 10% goat hair fabric, which I'm 99% certain is Loro Piana coarsehair. The model is "sport look" Original price was $1595, quite a premium over what HF usually charges for coats. SOLD
Shoulder 18.5"
Chest 42"
Waist 39.5"
Length from bottom of collar 30.5"
Sleeve 24.5"
The jacket has never been altered. It has probably been worn between 12 or 18 times.
Here is an older image of the whole thing:
Here is me in the jacket, from the Kent Wang blue contest. The fit is really not all that bad, but that's a thick, loose sweater.
I also am selling these two jackets:
David Chu 100% lambswool 38 Regular. 3 roll 2. Side vents. Hacking and ticket pocket. Removable throat latch. Orange undercollar. Nice soft shoulder. Half canvas, I believe. I like this jacket a lot but just haven't worn it enough to justify the closet space. Morgan Hacking model. Shoulder 18", Chest 40.5" Waist 38" Sleeve 25" Length from bottom of collar 30" I bought all new horn buttons from Tender Buttons and had Cardelino put in three working buttonholes on the sleeves. Worn half a dozen times. Retail price of $1000. SOLD
Hickey Freeman tweed 38 Regular. Barrett model. 3 roll 2. Center vent. Nice scratchy tweed. Colors are brown, purple, orange, and green on a light brown base. Shoulder 18.5", Chest 41" Waist 38.75" Sleeve 24.5", length from bottom of collar 30.25" If the fit was a little better for me, I'd probably be keeping this, as it's great as fall outerwear. Worn somewhere between 6 and 12 times. Retail price of around $1000. $175 Now only $150
