A slightly weather-beaten, rugged looking vintage 1960s or early 1970s Norfolk type jacket, custom made in Hong Kong by 'Sangwoo Tailoring' from fairly thick, heavyweight suede in a sandy beige colour. Single-breasted 4 button fastening, with unpadded shoulders, pointed collar, broad lapels, strapping down the front which forms loops for the buckle-fastened belt, large patch pockets with flaps, rear centre vent; fitted with leather 'football' buttons (those on the pocket flaps are decorative) & fully lined in beige rayon acetate fabric with 1 inside pocket. Cut in quite a traditional style which would incorporate well with an earlier outdoorsman or adventurer outfit.
Please study the photographs carefully - they form an important part of the description.
