This jacket is made from deadstock wool sourced from a tailor in Buffalo, NY, who closed his doors in the 1970s. He imported all of his fabrics from the UK and Italy. They had been sitting in his storage unit until we purchased them sixty years later.
This plaid wool fabric dates to the late 1960s or early 1970s. Hand-mending throughout.
- Boxy fit
- Four front buttons
- Two front patch pockets

All wear, mending, and idiosyncrasies are unique to the original textile.
