I kept hoping this would one day fit me, but it never quite worked. I love the fabric mixture, and I love the pattern.

If I found this in a size up I would happily trade! Or sell this to buy it.

It is a grayish-brown textured fabric, with two different shades of purple as the check pattern. It is still subdued enough to not be glaring, or too "in your face."

This sport coat is perfect for fall, winter, or spring.

It has two buttons up front, and 4 buttons on each sleeve.

Edit: If you took a razor/knife to the button holes on the sleeve, they would be functional. the lining inside is set up for it already.

It is double vented.

The fabric is a wool/cashmere/mohair mix. Here is a thread talking about the fabric........

And here is what zegna says about it...

The lining is a beautiful purple/burgundy. I am posting the pictures I have on hand, but I will hopefully be taking more tomorrow when it is sunny outside.

I am asking $100 OBO. Don't be shy making an offer.

Once I get better pictures I will be putting this on ebay at $150 OBO, that is if it doesn't sell here.

Shoulders - 19 in

Pit to pit - 22 in

Bottom of collar to bottom of coat - 31.75 in

Sleeve - 25 in

I'm only a little bummed, IIRC it was a tiny short for me length-wise. :cloud:
