Just had another look and there are actually some stitch lines in the lining, so you’re 100% right there.
I think the sleeves being a bit wide combine with the torso being very straight, rather than tapered just makes the jacket look very square.
I’ll hold onto it for a while, because how...
I considered this, but wouldn't it have been difficultu to get the same shade of white, and to install the stitching going through the lining?
If it was added after, I'm guessing it was professionally done?
Some photos of the white schott perfecto that just arrived. Unfortunately I think I will be moving this on, as it is too wide in the hem for my liking. It’s a shame as if the hem was inches narrower this would be great
Schott perfecto size 36 in excellent condition for $200. Would act fast and hot buy now though, as 3 other people have sent offers

First new jacket in a while for me. Just picked up this white schott perfecto. The tag says it’s a 618, but I haven’t seen this shoulder detailing before. Does anyone have any information?

The cost savings element seems confusing to me. If they wanted to save costs why wouldn’t they use 2 evenly sized pieces of leather, rather than one which goes 90% of...
Why do a lot of jackets have a separate patch of leather under the sleeve near the armpit e.g. under the sleeve you can see 2 pieces of leather are used
As with many collector items (e.g. watches), some people just buy for the status of it.
I love my cheap vintage brooks just as much as my expensive RMC repro. To each their own I guess
All jackets have been getting too expensive imo. Japanese jackets, Aero, Lewis, Schott etc.
Don’t know how long these companies can keep increasing their prices before people stop buying
