    Show off the sports coats.

    Probably had a thread on this a while back, though think it needs a rehash.

    I bought this jacket at the Camarillo Brooks Brothers outlet back in 2002. It served me well everywhere and I wore it to death. I wore it to the point where friends were offering me jackets to get me out of this one. I loved it. I need to see if it can be taken in. The colors are perfect. The pattern is perfect. I wish it were a suit. It's now too big.

    If you get the right sport coat you can make a whole wardrobe around it... get two and people wont think you're crazy.

    They are great for starting wardrobes, especially if you have the girlfriend nagging you to dress up more often. It's the sportjacket. If you don't want to be stuck with only the suit to wear when on a business trip, this can be your recourse for looking different with trouser and shirt and tie selections.

    Nice jackets.. though nothing without a person in them.

    How about your favorite?

    I'd like to see people pics.

    .

    Agreed. It's lifeless without the person.

    This is one of my favorite Harris Tweed jackets. I grab this one to wear on my evening walks in the more temperate months. I love the bold Houndstooth:



    And here is another tweed jacket. I am partial to tweeds. Perhaps it is the harsh New England climate. I really like the fit of this one:



    Notice the hiking boots. That's because I am in New Hampshire.

    I recently bought two sportjackets -- a deep chocolate brown tweed from the 'bay and a Clairborne 3-button in what I'd call a subdued windowpane pattern(also a deep brown, but slightly darker than the tweed) from Belk. It was originally $295, but it was on the clearance rack for 45 bucks, a great deal and they both fit me perfectly.

    My camera is down at the moment, but I'll snap some pics soon.

    Actually, I prefer the Paul Stuart presentation, with no human element to distract from the style. That said, I have hundreds of photos of my wardrobe which was shot in this fashion and I'm not about to re-shoot it anytime soon.

    You're probably right, a wasted effort. I think that it's best that I don't post anymore of my stuff.
