Wearing one of my favorite jackets.

This 1930's jacket is one of my favs because it's got patch pockets, wide horizontal lapels, swelled edges, and a belt back. It's also pretty soft in its construction. I really wish that they made stuff like this today.

For those interested, I wrote a lengthy post on my blog about all these 1920s-1940s details that are hard to come by now. Today, I've found that bespoke is mainly about fit and fabric choice (which is still good) but it leaves out the myriad of details and customizations that was so prevalent back in the day.

The square is vintage. No labels or tags. It's my favorite and most useful square. I would love to find another one in a similar colorway.
Thanks. Please, do let me know if you're successful. It does look like a very versatile square and I've love to own something similar.
