Just picked up a Vintage (mid 1990s I think) Grey Herringbone Tweed Sport Coat from the Tailor. She shortened the sleeves a bit. Now, I will repair the lining and replace the worn brown buttons with black leather buttons, myself. I originally picked this Sport Coat up for $11.
You don't need to be wealthy to dress with dignity. You can bring back from the dead beautiful pieces like this that have been cast aside. You just need to put in a little time, patience and effort. There is deeper meaning, satisfaction and ownership in this than many know.
