1940s Handsome in Herringbone Suit | Vintage Late 40s Brown and White Wool Peak Lapels Jacket and Pleated Trousers | Size 46L Extra Large

This classic herringbone suit will have them saying "Howdy handsome!" The wool is white and latte-brown wide-stripe herringbone weave. The jacket is double-breasted with a 2x6 button stance, wide peak lapels, jetted chest pocket, two welted hip pockets, and finished with an unvented back, shoulder pads, two inside pockets, and a rayon skeleton lining. Trousers include double pleats, early cloth-covered metal zip, five pockets with one buttoning in the back, a full set of inner suspender buttons, and dropped belt loops. Suit includes a Union Label that started in 1949 - we feel more confident calling this a late-40s suit (rather than an early-50s suit) because of several earlier tailoring indicators - most specifically the cloth-covered zipper, strong shoulder pads, unvented back, and skeleton lining. This suit is in great vintage condition, with a few subtle small period mends and no holes, stains, nor odors to note. 

Please Note: We list the Suit Size in the Title. A "Suit Size" is taken from your actual chest measurement. While we'd like a well-fitted suit, we don't want a skin-tight suit, so the actual jacket chest measurement is generally a few inches larger.
