Very nice. Do they fit you?
It's his special gift I think.
Thanks guys... I was glad to find something at the fleamarket. Made walking at freezing temperatures worthwile.
Yes both fit me well - the tux sleeves could use an inch more, though.
I like the cut of the Czech jacket - it's very long, one might almost be tempted to call it "zootish"... together with an open-collared white shirt it has a certain Eastern/Southern vibe to it.
It just needs wide cut slacks to go with it. Maybe I have luck in finding a black cloth with matching herringbone weave or even pants (help is welcome... The fabric weave is secondary as longs as it's not fuzzy). Otherwise I don't really know what to combine it with - tried it with grey flanells, but IMO black slacks fit better.
In Bavaria, Rudie. The blue suit however was bought online.
Curiously the Munich "Kleidermarkt" has not whole suits AT ALL. They always sell jackets and pants separately... I suspect that in their depot they have some of the matching trousers of the jackets they sold. :eusa_doh:
Anyway fleamarkets have then and now some finds... but still one has to put a lot of time and effort into finding anything.
Yesterday was the annual giant "Theresienwiese"-Fleamarket with floods of people... even though it was raining and the ground turned into a horrible mud. ^^
