Press Tweed, Circa 1953</strong></p> <p>One of the great things about thrift store shopping is finding something that seems like it comes from another world. This J. Press coat I found over the weekend is a perfect example. It’s a custom job, completed in October of 1953.</p> <p>The tweed on this feels like it could stop a bullet. In fact, sixty years later, it’s completely unscarred by time. It could well have just come off the production line. Unlike J. Press today, which usually features a single hooked vent, it’s unvented, but it still features the classic three-roll-two button configuration.<br/> I only wish that it fit me.</p> </blockquote> <p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/sch/balearic1/m.html?_ipg=50&_sop=10&_rdc=1">Coming Soon. </a></p>http://lacasuarina.tumblr.com/post/52989180451http://lacasuarina.tumblr.com/post/52989180451Fri, 14 Jun 2013 21:36:37 -0400menswear
