It can be done, and be done well..if its a labour of love for the person doing it. See, it will depend on if lets say a blazer has patch pockets or wether there is a center vent/twin vent/no vent in the back etc. cuffs will need generous allowance because when you minimize the arm hole, the...
Nah..cant do repro, I'm one of those guys that likes wearing "historically accurate" clothing, albeit with a few alterations here and there. Its definitely a very uphill climb but as I suggested, I am hardcore when it comes to vintage gear. BTW years ago I did make a trip to Thailand for an...
Like many folks..I've collected vintage clothing over the years but all are too big, I'm a size 36 (or even a 34) and most of the vintage gear is atleast a 42 or bigger..I'm strictly a "vintage guy" and don't do repro's or contempo's. YES they can be "shrunk" to smaller sizes if you know what...

till soon

wow- the one that got away..dunno how it slipped past me. I've even set up alerts too.
I thought the patch pockets were strictly 30's..havent seen a patch pocketed 40's PB before (especially not a patched chest pocket).
So, the hunt resumes in earnest.
MondoFW - Not sure I follow you..you slung a PB Linen on the 'bay recently? It makes the two of us..im on the hunt as well, except I am looking for the smallest possible size..36 with 28-30 inch waist.
I'll second that - It doesn't make much sense why vintage 60's classic stingy brim (but in my case classic means a .5" brim) hats are more rarer than older 40's/50's fedora's. It is extremely rare to find a 60's stingy brim with .5" brim...I think easier to vintage find .5" stingy brims over at...
actually I am now back to zero...a very strange thing. When I am replying to a personal messege the UPLOAD FILE button is missing, but now on this very thread I see there is an UPLOAD FILE button, why this discrepancy ??
