I just met with Tim last week.

I don't know when "6" had it made, but on current pricing, this would be:

(Assuming Grade "C" Fabric)

$1475 (Fabric/Suit) + $250 (Hand Make) + $150? (Half Lining)

Unless I'm wrong - I think 'much' upwards of $1000. But '6' should correct me. 


I think your confusing a suit price ($1475) with the cost of the jacket only (this is a sportcoat not suit jacket). So around $1000 for a jacket would be about right based on the suit price.

That's a fair bit... guess I will have to save up. Nice fabric though!

this fabric is nice, and the cut looks great on you, congratulations

Probably overdue pic of my sportjacket.
In 3D:

Up close:

Spread out: Really bad colour on this. Needs natural light.

Yes, was no where even near the $1500 mark.


Nice jacket there. I was going to do something similar last year.

Can you post some photographs of the inside?

I haven't seen details on a half / quarter-lined PJ coat yet.

Commissioned a blazer suit a few weeks ago:

French Navy worsted from Dugdale Bros; soft shoulder; 3 patch pockets; mid brown horn buttons; half-lined; hand-finished.

Good as a casual suit and because of the texture, the suit jacket can be worn as a navy odd jacket.

Probably won't be here till mid-March; will try to keep everyone posted...

PJ's half/quarter lining is pretty industry standard i.e. half-lined = lining down the fronts, half lining down the back, and quarter lined is 'buggy lined' - self-lined down the fronts and lining just at the shoulders down the back.

Some updates - 2 new shoulder styles (one unpadded, the other pagoda-esque), the wide notch lapel is finally in the house, and a softer canvas as well for some styles.


I'm interested in this - anyone have pictures of the new shoulder styles or fit commentary?

Are the softer canvas styles also softer in feel through the shoulder?
