I picked up 2 Brooks Brothers cotton poplin sack suits on Thursday for $15 each. One tan, one olive. Both are as trad as can be: undarted, patch side pockets, a serious 3 roll 2 lapel, and flat front pants.

Here’s the tan one being styled for Spring/Summer wear. To make it more fun, I thought I’d make it an all Brooks Brothers and all thrifted outfit.

Suit: BB cotton poplin, $15

Shirt: BB, $7

Tie: BB, $2

Full pic to come…

J. Press braces, in Yale blue and white. These were given to me by a good friend who used to row for Yale’s mens heavyweight crew team in the mid-to-late 90s. He assures me that the Harvard crimson that resides near the wearer’s arse is a purposeful design element.
