However, Alan Flusser's jacket is a different jacket altogether. It has jacket lapels, is longer in body, and had a three button front, whereas the Tyrolean jacket pictured is really a cropped waist boiled wool sweater kinda thing. About 18 years ago or so, you couldn't throw a brick in Tokyo without beaning someone in a Tyrolean jacket (ala Flusser w/ lapels). To this day I regret never getting one. My wife has one, and it's way cool with jeans.heavy tweed jackethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04621291159017166849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081206974005845104.post-11254079015922905782009-10-01T21:00:39.733-07:002009-10-01T21:00:39.733-07:00Anon. 2:46,

An arm and a leg--but now I have some extremely high quality, well-fitting clothes for a fraction of what they would have cost new. Even so, that doesn't make the wife any happier, and I still have to wait a few months before I can get more of my treasures altered. *sigh*<br /><br />BTW, I'm envious of you guys who have an embarrassment of riches in your thrift stores. I can go weeks without finding anything, but I think it's a combination of limited selection (due to low population) and my inherent pickiness.Young Fogeynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081206974005845104.post-49507947114865043492009-09-30T21:43:36.278-07:002009-09-30T21:43:36.278-07:00Bogota Trad,

The two pieces remind me that discernment is the key when purchasing new garments. And I don't have to build a proper gentleman's wardrobe in one day.
