This is absolutely gorgeous! First, it's made by Corbin, one of the great American Ivy clothiers, for The English Shop of Princeton--one of the Big Four Ivy stores of the Golden Age in Princeton, now long gone. So, the pedigree of this jacket is impeccable! The cut lives up to its pedigree; it's a classic 3/2 sack with patch pockets and a lovely lapel roll. It is half-lined, and appears to be fully canvassed. It has three button cuffs and a hook vent, and is a beautiful, rich shade of saturated coral. It has very natural shoulders! This is a truly lovely jacket! It was, of course, Union Made in the USA.

It does have a couple of minor flaws; there is some wrinkling to the lapel by the roll, and there is some minor, minor surface pilling throughout. Because of these, this jacket is in Very Good condition, and so is a bargain at

just $29, or offer, boxed and shipped in the USA.
