    Era of Burberry Blue Plaid Double Breasted Topcost

    Thank you so much. It's just too small for DH so I'll have to find another one for him.

    Era of Burberry Blue Plaid Double Breasted Topcost

    Since menswear is not my forte I decided to come ask for guidance on what you think the era of this Burberry topcoat is. I am leaning towards late 1980s-mid 1990s, however, that is simply an uneducated guess on my part. I originally purchased the coat for my DH, however, unfortunately it is...

    Sizing Gloves

    Thank you again for this information. This includes what I was missing which is the EU sizes. Since I purchase gloves that are not for my own use the sizing isn't such a problem. I'm just trying to make sure that when someone purchases the that they will fit them well rather and disappoint...

    Sizing Gloves

    I've read several different blogs on how to size gloves. My quandry is this. I have a pair of opera length leather gloves that are marked a size 7 and are marked Made in France. When measuring at the widest part around the entire glove the measurement is 6 inches. From what I've read on the...

    Possible 1930s-1950s Mens Coat help needed

    Thanks for the confirmation. I don't purchase a lot of menswear but the coat spoke to me so I grabbed it. :)

    Thank you very much! I had hoped that it would fit my husband but it doesn't so I'll find someone else that will enjoy it.

    Possible 1930s-1950s Mens Coat help needed

    Thank you. I have taken some rough photos that should give you an idea of what era I have here. As far as the weight of the coat is concerned, it's roughly 4 pounds. I'd hazard a guess that this coat would have been worn in the spring and fall as the wool is not the heavy wool you'd see with a...

    Possible 1930s-1950s Mens Coat help needed

    I purchased a mens overcoat about 6 months ago. I've not done anything with it yet as I'm trying to date the coat correctly. I'd like to post pictures here so I can ask your opinions on the age of the coat. What pictures would be most important? I know to provide the labels. I also figure...

    Mohair hat and is it considered a fedora?

    I'm sure it's the same thing with women's hats as well being called one thing here in the US and quite another in the UK. I have several books on womens hats that I've invested in to make sure I'm accurate in my descriptions. :)

    Mohair hat and is it considered a fedora?

    That was one of the reasons I posted the hat in the first place. I was looking at listings on eBay, although people call things over there a lot of things they aren't in the name of key words, so I was not willing to call the hat I posted a fedora without checking here first. I was looking...
