No, but they're very authentic repros. More info here: http://www.thefedoralounge.com/show...ould-you-pay&p=1349906&viewfull=1#post1349906

I think you've nailed it! Just a thought: try it with the jacket's bottom button unbuttoned.

Spectacular Marc! What shoes were you wearing with them out of curiosity?

Yup, very mid-fifties looking, especially with your grandpa's fedora.

Thanks! I was wearing the shoes below. Didn't want to wear footwear that was too showy (i.e., spectator shoes), as it would have taken viewers' attention away from the clothing.

Yeah, it looks a lot better without it, not so bunchy.

Sharp eyes. They're the same ones.

Marc love the cap

Marc love the cap

Thanks! It's an eBay win from a year ago. From the 1920s (and with a '25 patent date) -- was deadstock in its original box. Came from a Maine estate.

Marc's outfit is amazing. The tie, the trousers, the shoes, I love it all.

In not quite the same league, here is my 30's inspired knitted outfit. For someone so little sports oriented like myself (read: not at all), this obsession with vintage sportswear is quite inexplicable. Nevertheless, it almost keeps me awake at night sometimes . You wouldn't guess.
