The Chaps say: Striking suit, dated 1953 but very much in the 1940s style. Superb detailing, heavyweight cloth; they just don't make 'em like this anymore! Perfect for Goodwood Revival.
Condition: GOOD - wearable but with obvious flaws: two holes to lapels, some minor wear to elbows, some wear / holes to the cuff edges. A few small holes to lining, some minor discolouration to collar fold. Some wear to trousers' pocket edges, some shine to seat, a hole to the front of right leg. See photos.
