New Sportscoat

[Dinerman]

I outgrew my old Jos. A Bank houndstooth blazer last winter, so I got this tweed blazer by Oleg Cassini as a replacement. Not many real similarities, but it gives off the same kind of vibe. Not vintage; not new, but I think it fills in the gap left by the old one. What really made it for me was that it was all wool, and ventless
Look alright to you all?

Looks swingin' enough for me.

I recently got a brown houndstooth jacket and like it a lot.

Nice coat. Does it fit with the same nipped waist when you wear it? Very decent cut.

I guess I'll see in a couple of days. It still hasn't arrived. But with the mannequin and all, their pictures of it are going to be better than my own.

I hope the fit is as good as picture.
Every sportcoat and suit I see in a store window is pinned.
They look great but are big boxy pieces of material when you try it on.
Our local tailors must find this practice a blessing.

Looks real good to me, too. I especially like a ventless jacket. I would be curious to see it with only the middle button buttoned. It looks like it may have a "soft roll" to the middle intended for the lapel, but eliminated when buttoned at the top. Either way, its still very natty!

Please continue to specify a softroll to the lapel whenever you have it cleaned in the future (they'll know what to do) and don't commit the heresy of a hard press instead.

Sorry, bit ordinary.
