I just brought up some winter clothes from storage and there are a lot of nice tweeds I haven’t seen or worn in awhile, including this vintage Scottish District Check jacket. This jacket has a 3 button stance, and lapels that are quite thin. Note also the hand sewn lapel buttonhole. Thought the tweed is Scottish, the jacket itself was made in England.
