I am getting rid a handful of tweed sportcoats. See below for pics and links.

Vintage 1940s Four Pocket Pebble Tweed Sportcoat Size 40
1940s -...
Is your 30's jacket tagged "42?" I found that leather jackets were tagged with their exact measurements. I have a jacket tagged a "40" that is exactly 40 inches in the chest, so it is really a size 38.
wise guy...
If they are made the same way they were made by Aero in years past, than they run a little roomier in the chest than the vintage ones. I prefer a visible shoulder yoke and more accurate cuff straps, but that's just me.
Not to perpetuate the ongoing Aero-Alexander TFL saga, but at the time of this thread's initial debut, the company was under the helm of Lauder and a chunk of the jacket makers from that time has since joined him to staff Alexander.
So....maybe it should be renamed "Do Alexander leather...
Yeah, this style is the bold look taken to it's logical end. Big bulky shoulders, low button stance. Where the war years had the modified hourglass shape, the post war trends went for a capital "T"silhouette. Gotta have the right slacks, though! Smooth rayon gab, oh yeah!
About a size 38 in that rare atomic fleck you would expect to find on a Ricky jacket, not on a sport coat.
In decent condition too.
