A very long shot, but worth a try. I'm looking for a silk trimmed velvet jacket as shown in the web images (this one was sold in the USA). It's an 1880s style - as worn by Robert Louis Stevenson, Oscar Wilde, WAS Benson et al.). I have another version of one already in an XL (without the ticket...
Looking to buy Old Town clothing (small manufacturer of clothing inspired by British workwear from the 1890s-1930s).
I have a number of their items already and I typically wear jackets/waistcoats in a 42”.
I now wear a 34” waist in their trousers.
Please send me a PM if you have anything that...

This is an Old Town Sage Moleskin Single breasted Waistcoat in a...
I have recently shed a few pounds in weight and have lost a couple of inches around my torso. I’ve picked up a couple of original peacoats (a 1970 and a 1949) in a 42/42R.
Consequently, this beautiful Ralph Lauren ‘Polo’ peacoat (my go to winter coat) is now way too big in an XL and is for...
Looking for either a:
Buzz Rickson 37-J-1 or
Real McCoys Zielinski 37-J-1B replica.
Sizing is likely to be a 42” or 44” (22” or 23” pit to pit).
Does anybody have one that they are looking to offload?
Does anybody have any experience of sizing in William Gibson series garments?
I thought that I’d managed to find a BR jacket that I had been seeking for a while (a 37-J-1) in ‘my size’ (now a 42) only to find that the P2P for a 42 is 24” and the shoulders are 20”.
In my experience BR jackets are...
I recently bought a tweed jacket made by Nigel Cabourn. It’s a limited edition based on an original worn by Edward Atkinson, the surgeon on the ill-fated Scott expedition to the South Pole in 1912.
I really like this pattern: typically Edwardian with narrow lapels, slight waist, fixed half...
** Autocorrect has defaulted to Shelley, but apologies to Dave Sheeley**
I’ve just received this custom order from Dave Sheeley (Mavrickson on FL) following a very enjoyable discussion stretching over a few months to develop the pattern. I’m delighted with the result and the fit.
Last year, I...
I've posted several of images of this jacket already, but this is a set of close ups showing the detailing.
This is the 'Journeyman' work coat, based on an early 20th century (1920s-1930s) pattern, and developed by Freewheelers (http://www.freewheelers.co.jp/english/store/index.html)...
Probably against my better judgement (and certainly against John Lever’s advice!), I have decided to offer my .50 cal A-1 for sale. I've worn it a number of times recently and, whilst being the most comfortable jacket that I own, it's time to let somebody else enjoy it. I find that I'm wearing...

This is the current offering of the second edition of the WWII Winter Combat Jacket (the Tanker Jacket) from At the Front. This is identical to the standard edition in every respect, but is lined with a high quality polar fleece, which is warmer, softer, and more breathable than the coarse wool...
