    FS: Size 40 three-piece DB suit, 1930s

    For sale is a fabulous 1930s three-piece double-breasted suit, styled by Brandon. The fabric is a wonderful mid-to-heavyweight navy blue wool with alternating white and red pinstripes. The suit is in fantastic condition -- no noticeable flaws -- and I hate to part with it, but I'm moving and...

    F/S Eastman B-3 size 44

    My move is your gain! Having relocated from the frigid climate of Minnesota to the decidedly warmer one of Washington, D.C., I've found my incredibly warm B-3 completely unnecessary. I've had it for about two years and it's been lightly worn (some scuff marks on the horsehide facings, but I...

    Custom/MTM linen suit

    With the heat of the summer fully upon us (and plenty more to come), I think it's time for me to get a linen suit! I have a Ralph Lauren linen jacket that I wear all the time (despite it not fitting properly), and it's absolutely perfect for the hot summer months, but I'd like a matching...

    letting out a waistcoat

    So I found a series of AMAZING late 30s three piece double breasted suits for a steal at a local thrift store yesterday, and what's even more amazing is they fit... well, sorta. The waist on the jackets are too high and the pants are a bit short - as it stands now, I look a bit bulky in them...

    WTB 3 piece suit 30s-50s size 40-42L

    I just recently acquired my first vintage suit, a DB pinstriped chocolate affair, and I'm now looking to expand my three piece wardrobe beyond the one 70s nightmare suit I have now. What I'm specifically looking for is a three piece with a very high fitting waistcoast, something like what...

    ELC B-3 beginner's question

    I just bought a used Eastman B-3 from a fellow FLer. It's a wonderful jacket, great condition, very warm! This is kind of a silly beginner's question, but what kind of leather is used in the areas not covered in horsehide? How durable is it? It feels much flimsier (although still sturdy) than...

    WTB Sheepskin flight jacket sz. 42

    I'm not discriminating! What I want is a decent sheepskin flight jacket, but I am not particularly discriminating about the model: B-3, ANJ-4, M-445, Irvin, etc. Repro is preferred - I want to wear it! I think I take a size 42, but I'm not really sure - I have a size 38/40 chest, but I'm...

    WTB surplus submariners pullover

    Hi, all. I've given some thought to this - I've really wanted a submariners pullover for a while now, but I've been reluctant to bite the bullet and shell out $70-$90 and buy a WPG or ELC repro. I'm based out of Ireland for a few months, and so I've been writing to surplus shops in Ireland...
