Top quality fabric. Very soft, yet substantial. Wonderful stitching and buttons. Cut is a bit more tailored than the chore coats, in a very good way. I’m hoping for more colors: browns, greens.
I've turned into a TS mannequin. Recent acquisitions include four linen and two seersucker shirts. I live in Florida, and because of TS I have discovered that these are the fabrics for the tropics. Trash the polyester t-shirts.
I face two problems with TS clothes. Maybe you face them. The first is how to fit these very special clothes into my humble life. I wrote about this in another TS review. As I said there, "Sprezzatura's the key." That's right! Sprezzatura. Don't know what that means? Google it. You need this word. Don't miss the Baldassare Castiglione part.
The second is that I'm the kind of guy who has many nice clothes but always wears the same thing. I'm working on rotating. Send the tried and true to the back of the closet. Get out of the comfort zone.
The garment in question is the professor jacket. Beautiful, well made, essential, downright inspiring. Versatile. Hit the dive bar in it with my low life friends. It worked. But sometimes my life is elegant. Next stop for the jacket is the Sarasota Opera. Don Giovanni. Calls for extra Sprezzatura. I'm ready.
I returned it. Didn’t look right on me. That said, the construction and materials are unassailable. Heirloom quality. I just couldn’t pull it off.
Loved the look and it is thin enough to wear it most times of the year. I normally go between a large and medium. I went with medium and it fits perfect. I weigh 198 lbs and 5’ 11” and average build.
Ive gotten quite a few compliments on the jacket. It fits well, true to size. Love it.
