A small size, of course!

nice. weird.

and your size?

Jacket's a little long, and I know there's another FLounger who wants it, so I won't bid.

And, tbh, it doesn't look very well made. I'm really not a fan of the trousers rear waistband, either.


Interesting all the same, but not for me!

the finish is very 'workwear' crude. it could be uniform intended for some sort of institution or just a cheap worker's suit.

The button/belts on the back trousers are very rugged, robust, pieces of manly sewing …

...pieces of manly sewing …

this is a private joke which no one else will get.

the topstitching around the lower front cutaway is very wonky. it reminds me of the most slapdash military finish i've seen.

still an interesting suit though. i'd wear it if i were putting together a 'peasant' look.
