It looks Korean, first two lines, which are the most important I can't say with 100% certainty but typing in all the usual suspects into google translate it looks like 60% wool 40% linen? The last two are Polyester and Rayon.

Looking to learn a little more about this orphaned Brooks Bros jacket. I may swap out the buttons and turn it into a blazer. Where was it made and what time period? It is half lined but the front is fully canvassed.

I picked this suit up a couple weeks ago from a thrift shop, but I can't find anything on it. Any guesses?

I know I have seen this before, but couldn't find it after a quick scan. Made in Italy unstructured butter soft corduroy sport coat for Richards of Greenwich.

Looks like vintage Martin Greenfield but I don't know **** about Brooks Bros history so that is not at all a firm answer, just extremely similar in shape, location stitched in, type face, color etc... if you can find a faint MG on there then that's who it is although not all his pieces don the initials, but again I'm not positive here, just what it looks like.
