This half-canvassed, half-lined 3/2 tweed sack is a beauty! Featuring the ever-desirable patch pockets, this is cut from a beautiful rich chestnut brown herringbone tweed, which is perfectly complemented by the original (and now incredibly rare) complete set of embossed leather buttons featuring Brooks' "Golden Fleece" logo. (The colour of the tweed and the condition of the buttons are bests een in teh close-up of the sleeve cuff.) These buttons are striking, both in themselves and also with respect to their condition, which is essentially mint--the first set I've ever seen without flaws. The jacket also features a hook vent, and lapped seams at the sides and down the centre back. It was, of course, Union Made in the USA. With the exception of the interior "Makers" label being detached on one side this jacket is in stunning condition.

Asking just $60, or offer, shipped in CONUS. (The buttons alone are worth this!) International inquiries welcome, with shipping at cost.

Please PM with interest and offers!
