Another I just purchased from resortes805. Once again, Joe the Tailor did some nice work with this one lengthening the sleeves & fixing button hole. One of my new favorites.

My Summer Linen Sports Coat

 

[brspiritus]

I found this one on E-bay, mulling over buying it. To my eyes it looks 80's but it's a nice wool tweed and the price isn't half bad either. I'd like to know your opinions before I pull the trigger. S Cohen Sports Jacket

 

[Baron Kurtz]

Certainly was! Man, I remember that wardrobe. Astonishingly fine stuff, all from Carson Pirie Scott …

This one may have been from our Baron Kurtz a few years back.

 

[brspiritus]

Well I won a Sports Jacket on E-bay, amazing it was in my size and at least gives appearace of being vintage. Pictures to follow when I get it in the mail.

I'm looking forward to seeing the sport coat you have won brspiritus...and wow, you must be quite the big boy at that size! I imagine the selection of vintage is scarce for you.

6'2" tall and 330lbs, Scarce is putting it mildly, nonexistant is more apropo. Anyhow the coat in the link above is not the one I bought, I ended up finding THIS ONE at a better price and still... right size. Tag looks 60's, V-Line was an older company though specializing in "Slimming Suits for the Stout Man" so we'll see when it arrives.
