Pant

I found a 1940s wool double breasted jacket today in near mint condition. The color is navy blue heavy wool. I search all over the AMVETS thrift shop where I found the jacket to search for the pants. After 30 mins of searching with no luc I gave up. Does anyone know where I can get a pair of custom pants made to match the jacket. I live in San Diego, but it I'm willing to travel to Los Angeles area.

If you want a contrasting color, you can look a lot of places. If you're trying to get an exact match to the fabric of the jacket, to make a suit, I would recommend not even trying. It will be virtually, heck, literally, impossible to find an exact match, and there's nothing that looks worse than a jacket and trousers where the ower has tried to make a match but failed. Bad idea. Find some good gray slacks, or white flannels, and put gold buttons on the jacket.

Yeah just something close enough. Going to make another trip to AMVETs tomorrow. See if the pants got put in circulation.

Also, you could have the buttons replaced and turn it into a blazer...
