I just bought a Harris tweed sportcoat and contrasting vest. I figure I will probably be asked to sit out doors for lunch meetings on non-rainy days this winter, and this will be a way to keep warm and still look good.

Just the thing to wear to Piggins.

I really like that tie with that jacket.

A substantial jacket, for sure. Handsome in a very hardy, masculine way. The angled and flapped left breast pocket is a design feature that I cannot recall seeing i the past. I'm going to have to get used to it, before being able to say I like it!

⇧ Feels very classic-Hollywood style to me. Immediately made me think of William Powell as he wore a similar jacket in "The Thin Man Goes Home" movie:

I'd like them more with a less-obvious label.

^ Judging by the stitching, I'm guessing the label is meant to be removed after purchase?

Good point, obvious now that you pointed it out.

Bought my first pair of tweed trousers off eBay. Nice Hertling-made green just in time for the cool down.

Consider this to be a 'go on the coat' and a resounding 'no on the bow'!

I kind of like bows but not that one. A tad twee for my taste.
