Deckard & Newcastle

[Matt Deckard]

14.5 oz whipcord. For those going for the action back I suggest 12 oz. or heavier.

As for working out... here and there, just trying to keep in my suits.

 

[Forgotten Man]

Well, I’ve seen the suit in person many times, and it is indeed a well made fine piece of suiting with very fine details that is very old world.

The inside of the coat is really well done… Matt, you should post a photo or two of the inside of the coat to give everyone an idea.

As the years go on, fewer and fewer vintage goods are going to be around for us to collect or to wear. This is the future of “our look” we want to keep up… as people like Matt, continue to strive for details and quality (as they were in the 30s-40s) we’ll be able to duplicate original vintage clothing perfectly!

What Matt is doing is really in a way “rocking the boat” of the modern suit industry! Because, not only are you getting a suit with a particular look, but, the quality is high!

 

[Robert Conway]

Looking good, gentlemen. That travel suit with the action back, looks very nice.

I don't know what else you have up your sleeve, but please make me a happy fellow and tell me that there is a nice single breasted, peak lapel tux in the line up...., pretty please?

 

[DOUGLAS]

I can't wait to see the other offerings. You both have got a great idea going.

 

[scotrace]

That suit is the bee's knees. Also, great shirt.

You guys have actually done it!

 

[John in Covina]

Hooray, Matt! The Travel Suit is excellent.

 

[MK]

.

I took the liberty of color correcting the photos to what I saw in person.

Enjoy!

 

[metropd]

You should have 30's and 40's style fedoras in your line.

 

[Fletch]

Or tie-in arrangements with a prominent hatter?

 

[Matt Deckard]

I think the hatters are doing pretty well now that we have experts putting together higher crowned well felted chapeaus for men.

Deckard & Newcastle at the moment is here to provide well constructed suits with clinically detailed designs that fit impeccably well. I've already done a few custom designs for clients. As for hats, for now we'll leave felt hats to the hatters.

 

[MrNewportCustom]

Matt and Jack. I'd be happy to help you with the photography of your suits.

[Speedster]

This looks very promising indeed. :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

Only wish i could be in London for the fitting schedule at the end of May.

 

[Matt Deckard]

 

[John in Covina]

Now that is most wonderful!

 

[Robert Conway]

Just how wide are those lapels?

 

[Matt Deckard]

Wide enough to look cool

Depending on the stripes, We'll match them up as best we can too.

And to clear some things up

These suits are for everyone looking for comfort and a good fit.
A retaliation against the tight fitting suits you see on models who advertise goods and the extra large sizes you see on the wearers that are actually being worn.

I'm talking to several tailors and finding out that they go by ratios that keep them logistically close to globally accepted standards when they make bespoke or even made to measure suits. I like the fit of the suits you see in movies from the 30's 40's and 20's because I think they fit men much better... in fact I received a call from The author of the latest Carry Grant Biography a few weeks back telling me the same. He mentioned that it was like night and day when you compared fit of many todays suit fits to yesteryear's. So My goal is just to bring customers that fit and panache that came with suits that were made in a day where men wore suits throughout the day and not just for special occasions.

 

[Speedster]

Looking better and better each day. :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

Has pricing been mentioned yet?

 

[Matt Deckard]

800 to 1400 depending on fabric special details and pieces.

 

[Robert Conway]

Wide enough to look cool

Fair enough. I'm very curious to see this one in person.

Depending on the stripes, We'll match them up as best we can too.

Amen.

The suits are looking good. The one suit i've seen i person (black flannel w/ white chalk stripe) was very similar to Matt's one on previous page. I was impressed with the weight of the fabric and the cut was essentially 40s-correct. Buttons set a little low for my taste, but that's because such button stance don't seem to work w/ my physique.

I hope this will work out for Matt 'n' Jack 'n' tailor. My slim pocket book will be sticking to vintage 'cause there's no lack of 1930s 36S suits out there.
