Mid-late 1950's "fleck" suit w/patch pockets...the zipper on the pants was falling apart so I had to make it a button-fly.
Is it vintage or who did make this for you?
Gentlemen, thank you for the kind words. That is correct its bespoke, by made my tailor in Delhi, Vaish at Rivoli. I regularly travel to India each year for work, so I've used them for the past 3-4 years. They are one of the oldest tailors in Delhi (1940) and the familly is Saville Row trained (Dege and Skinner), their work is hand stiched, fully canvased, etc. The jacket is a direct copy of a 1935 belted action back of mine, the trousers and waistcoat copied from my 1954 Austin Reed three piece. Holland and Sherry POW check about 12oz weight.

For my upcoming graduation, I got my first ever vintage suit. It doesn't have a union tag, but it's cut, style, high button stance and button fly says the 1935-1945 period to me.
XD That's what my grandpa used to say!Very nice. Gotta be careful the dog don't scratch up your pants though LOL
Beautiful job, Chasseur. How much did it cost, if you don't mind?
Sorry for bad quality. Just bought my first Fedora n thought I'd take a quick snap.
