Bruckner and Meister 1937
Beautiful. The names are definitely German, but without photos of the label and details of the interior and pant waist construction one can't say for sure. They could have been German speaking immigrants. -
What are you wearing today??
Splendid outfit. You have great suits and assecorize them very well. However you really need to get two or three proper hats. I suggest a grey Homburg, a grey Snapbrim/Fedora and a black Bowler/Derby. The hat you made without sweatband and ribbon honestly doesn't do justice to the rest of...- Fastuni

Show us your British suits
Hm. While indeed it doesn't roll to the middle button, I think it looks better with the top button open. Maybe because I simply prefer the look of a three button SB closed only at the middle. If you close the top it seems to pull rather awkwardly... Compare... I personally would... -
Cheap 30's Style Beltback Sportcoat Calvin Klein
I wouldn't mind if the waist is about a size or two too wide... as it is a fairly modern jacket it lacks the typical nipped waist (as can be seen by the rear view). By taking in the waist it will be more close to the 30's style.- Fastuni

I don't think that's the case with this jacket. The edge pulls quite at the middle button... hard to put it in words. Metatron, could you maybe post a photo of the jacket when worn only with the middle button closed? -

Nice. As Nick suggested only button the middle button. There appears to be some shine to the edge... some ammonia water could help. -
Gentlemen, show us what you've made!
Nick, great work. I notice you made for your 30's spearpoint collars quite high stands... a bit taller than what I know usually of 30's collars. I assume this is done on purpose to fit your neck?- Fastuni

Hair won't really slick back/part with new pomade?
"Murray's Superior" is in my experience by far the best to tame thick, strong hair. I have such hair and the soft pomades don't hold them down for long. Some "cement" is required. But I never use "Murray's" straight - I mix it with some vaseline (a big fingertip Murrays with two fingertips...- Fastuni

BOTH SIDES OF THE TWEED! - Show us your tweed suits, sport coats and pants
Nice! If it were up to me, I'd remove the elbow patches and throat latch and change the buttons for light brown corozo suit buttons to give it a more typical 30's feel. -

Show Us Vintage GERMAN Suits
Well, one certainly can say that it is very typical of the German school of tailoring (also the trouser construction, the cut-in piped pockets and exterior elastic side-straps), which was largely followed in Eastern Europe. Here I'd apply the law of probability. As most such suits come from... -
Show Us Vintage GERMAN Suits
Nice cut and single-button DB arrangement. It is certainly German. All the details are commonly found on German suits. I'd date it as likely post-war (1946-1952), but it might be late-30's.
