Resortes, you're killing us! Fantastic collection. The number of dual breast pocketed jackets you have is impressive.

Thanks for taking the time to photograph and post these!

I'm always on the look out for 4 pocket suits or sports coat, houndstooth prints and tweeds!

My wife just bought this one for me for Christmas. May I ask: What do you typically wear with it?

-Dave

It's pretty versatile; I've worn it with dress slacks, dress shirt and a neck tie as well as with jeans and a t-shirt. The plaid side gets more use than the khaki side though.

Here is my only vintage 3-piece. No union tag, just a label reading Woolf Bros.

I love this - I've always been a sucker for a strong herringbone pattern; the bolder, the better.

Thank you for taking the time post these images, and doing such a good job of it. I hope more Loungers with collections like yours (you know who you are), will take the time to share with others. We can sit and write about vintage clothing all day, but nothing beats photographs to really give people who are new to vintage a visual education on what to look for. Marc Chevalier used to post a lot of images like this on the Lounge (and still does, occasionally). It definitely helped me a lot early on, and I still never get tired of looking at them.
