Hi all,
I've become the owner of four of Hayward suits, two I'm hoping to get adjusted to fit (either me or the suit!).
I'd like to offer the others here first before going to ebay etc.
The first one is a Navy Blue Pinstripe in lighweight super 120's wool & cashmere (this detail is on the fabric in the pocket) and was made in 1985. The pinstripe is grey.
Two button single breasted jacket with 3 button cuff (2 working buttons) twin rear vent.
Flat front trouser, french style front pockets, two rear pockets, metal zip.
It is in excellent condition and I've not found any faults just very slight staining of sleeve lining at the shoulders.
Doug Hayward suits are completely bespoke and do not come up very often as 'vintage' items, a new suit would cost over £2,000. Doug Hayward was a well know tailor with a sparkling clientele have a quick google to see who!
I will add photo's later, I need to let them hang and give them a steam before getting the camera out. I'm trying to judge interest, if anyone is desperate for pictures please let me know.
Size 42" with 34/36" waist (side adjusters)
Jacket Details:
Armpit to armpit - 21"
Shoulder to cuff - 24.5"
Armpit to Cuff - 16"
Shoulder to shoulder - 18"
Top of collar to jacket hem - 32"
Across waist - 20"
Trouser details
Waist - 34/36" has side adjusters
Inside leg - 32" + 1.75" spare
Outseam, top of waist to hem - 43"
I'm looking for £160 plus postage (if international).
The other suit virtually identical in size, navy blue with a narrow paler blue pinstripe from 1984, the fabric is a super 120s by Scabal but I'll add full details tomorrow.
Please PM or email for further details if required.

Edit re photos, have tried but I am unable to put on attachments and have had no success with URL's yet. Tried link below that worked so here it is too.
