I have bought sold and collected vintage for years. And am rarely stumped, but this one has got me very undecided.
the lining and tag as well as the fabric say 50s or early 60s to me. But the collar says 30s 40s, as does the pinched waist, or 70s. But by the 70s linings, and tags had changed a lot. The one exception is the traditional men's shops who sometimes kept their same tag styles into later days.
I would say 40s, but the buttons are smaller, look newer, and the pockets are at an angle, which suggests late sixties seventies. Is this possibly a late sixties carnaby street mod kind of thing. It seems too well made and classic to be 70s, but the collar does not look 60s at all. it also doesn't seem as heavy as a 30s or even 40s.
would be appreciated.
