cool! the cap is magical, don't you suddenly feel to build entire outfit to support it.

...

That would foremost take a Mercedes W123 / 200D in Papyrus Green with a Wackeldackel and a hat shape crocheted loo roll cover on the rear shelf...:D

so far after I bought that cap, I have bought 2 turtleneck sweaters, 1 crew neck sweater, 4 corduroy pants and 2 striped tshirt:D:eek::confused: just by sheer will I hold myself back from overcoat since it would be complete nut in my climate.

That's the thing & you get it! I put on the cap yesterday and realized, nah, my stupid jeans x leather combo doesn't work. I need to think of something else. Now I need thick turtleneck sweaters and... I don't even know what kind of pants I need!

Like @ton312 I'm a sucker for rust suede, so I picked up this vintage used second-hand NOS suede and knit shawl collar piece earlier this summer:

Not a huge fan of the double d-rings on the chest pockets, but the price was right and it's unique. No tags to be found anywhere but kind of has a retro vibe to it.
Shawl collared type II sweater! I love that! Rust suede is the best suede.

you mean a taxi driver or chauffeur? :(

No, I mean an old farmer, old Highschool teacher, not under 60yo, or a retired, lower ranked officer, bricklayer foreman ...as especially this suede version has been and still is THE prototypical Babbitt‘s nightcap of the „German Michel“ since at least the 60s of last century...;)
