Single-breasted 3 button jacket in a fairly boxy cut, with quite lightly padded shoulders, slim notch lapels, centre vent, welted chest \u0026amp; lower flap pockets, cuffs with 2 decorative buttons; part lined in iridescent pinkish herringbone rayon.

The trouser linings are discoloured in places \u0026amp; the fork linings have some stains. Has been thoroughly steamed prior to listing but not cleaned. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eI have a no returns policy - please check the above measurements and compare to a similar garment of your own before buying - no refund offered for items that don’t fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurther information \u0026amp; photos on request.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Old Fashioned Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53341945233736,"sku":null,"price":325.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0848\/9464\/6600\/files\/P1420477.jpg?v=1782041099","url":"https:\/\/oldfashionedvintage.com\/products\/vintage-mens-1950s-american-suit-flecked-slub-silk-effect-rayon-taupe-black-40","provider":"Old Fashioned Vintage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
