This Southwick I won on ebay last week arrived today. I was very pleased to find that it is in fact a full canvas jacket. Perhaps it was made back before Southwick switched to half-canvas. Or perhaps they still make some full canvas models.

Thanks for that info on the retailer. I would have never thought this suit was at least 10 years old judging from its condition. It looks like it's never been worn.
