    Here's that King-O-Wear jacket from the other thread that I sold recently. Also, I recently picked up a reproduction short work jacket in two tone black and blue melton I found at Viva Las Vegas. Right now I am working on "fixing" some details on that jacket (replacing zippers...

    Help for someone relatively new to the suit world

    Seattle has a small handful of vintage clothing shops, go and go often to get a sense of the feel, look, and weight of the types of suits you are looking for. Nothing beats first hand 'on-the-job' training when it comes to style!

    Reproduction classic workwear

    I figure I might as well feature this outfit before it is gone forever; I got this matching Koto shawl collar jacket and work slacks a few years ago. It doesn't fit me anymore, so if anyone wants them, they are in the classifieds.

    Kazuki-san's online shop is here: http://adjustable.cart.fc2.com/. However, those in English speaking countries may find it easier to buy Adjustable Costume items through John Lofgren's Speedshop. I purchased a couple of shawl collar sweater vest that I am waiting to arrive in the mail.

    Some one-off Aeros?

    I think it looks cool. But then again, I already have a brown half-belt (a vintage 1940's windward) so I don't need another one anyway.

    Anyone know about Scully leather?

    Yep, Scully as a brand has been around since just after the turn of the century. I have a few suede loafer jackets and blazers made by Scully from the 1940s and 1950s: really cool stuff. I'm not sure if it is a brand like Stetson nowadays, where the only thing it has in common with it's former...

    (Repro.) Men's Vintage Collegiate Fashion/Benjamin Bixby Menswear

    Yeah, the Ivy League or Preppy look is one I generally try to avoid, for the reasons stated above. In my circles, collegiate takes on a different set of connotations, basically those associated with the snot-nosed punk attitude of collegiate shag. I'm sure a bit of upper and middle class...

    Show us your suits

    Bigger suits do surface time to time, but as Rudie is alluding too, they are few and far between. Your best bet is to message some of the high profile ebay sellers or get ahold of a local vintage clothing store and ask them to alert you if they get something in your size. Be prepared to pay...

    $78K Zoot Suit

    Haha, nice! Yeah, alot of these kids were drop-outs (pushed-outs, if you ask me) and were working full time. The labor unions used to hold dances for teens since these guys were already working stiffs at age 16. I always wondered about the chunky shoes. Double or tripled soled shoes always...
