TRAD HASPEL PINCORD Wash-and-Wear Suit
Size c. 36, 38
Size c. 36, 38
Joseph Haspel founded Haspel in New Orleans in 1909 with the express aim of creating clothing that could be worn comfortably in the sub-tropical humidity of the Deep South. Owing to the connections between New Orleans and Princeton, Haspel's seersuckers--and then pincords, and wash-and-wear--worked their way into being a staple of summer Ivy Style.
This is a lovely example of a vintage Haspel Wash-and-Wear pincord suit. Cut with a contemporary two-button front and darting, this is half-lined in traditional cream and has a single center vent. It features four button cuffs, and was Union Made in the USA. The trousers are flat-front and cuffed.
This does have one very small flaw--a small mark on one shoulder, as shown--and so this is in Very Good/Excellent condition.
Asking just $39, or offer, boxed and shipped in the USA.
