30s/40s industrial style on the cheap
Wearing and collecting vintage tailoring (suits etc.) is cheaper nowadays than a lot of vintage workwear. Workwear is all the rage also among reproduction companies... tailored garments are rather niche. If you look for true vintage workwear(ish) items, that are durable, cheap and easy to get...- Fastuni

1940s-1950s Tweed sport coat size 42-43 windowpane on herringbone

Soviet suits and other garments
Rabbit, I agree that it looks some very early 20's "jazz jacket". Probably second or third hand from some NEPman. ... Thanks Metatron for adding some color to this thread! ... Here now some Soviet catalogue illustrations for menswear. The catalogue scans are all from this interesting... -
