A little too costumey. Why not just release a classic grey herringbone?

I believe MTO is 15% off with code MTO15.

I don’t think this is costume-like at all. This is more like a heritage sport coat, and more casual due to the buttons and elbow patches. I really like it, and will probably end up getting it

Bought my first S&M suit - Navy slim fit - Fabric: Dino Filarte - size 36.

At $200USD, its a great price but us Australians also incur a $40USD shipping cost.

I'm happy and surprised that the armholes are are very large relative to SuitSupply.

The herringbone tweed already evokes professorial vibes. Adding the football buttons and elbow patches takes it over the top, in my view.

A very well known issue with SM and imo the only flaw that makes you look instantly "rtw". This is why I just got 11 jackets from Susu that need zero alteration and only a few from SM this time around. Then again the SM demographic is probably leaning towards dressing up like 50 years ago as opposed to current fashion.

I like the vintage look of the wooden buttons.

Wooded buttons are cool especially when normal jacket button but in wood. Leather buttons look too old unless in pure black.

You missed his point, @Riva. He just said he’s “happy and surprised” about the armholes. Maybe if you buy another 200 sport coats you’ll find one that makes you look as sharp as @WorldsGr8estKid does in his exquisite $200 suit.

Not missed. I just needed another counter post to the larger than usual bespoke lover crowd lol.

 

[WhyUEarly]

I second the low armhole issue. It's not something that can be easily modified unlike people complaining about tight fitting trousers. Riva has strong opinions, but it's equally rude to just dismiss his statements like that every single time. I find his posts helpful and frankly he probably contributed to a lot of sales to Spier Mackay with his comments on fabric. If you don't like his posts, just put him on ignore...
