Described by the 'blog Ivy Style as a "tropical Abercrombie & Fitch" Mark, Fore, & Strike focused on making classic clothing for (in their words!) "a select group of people who had a good deal of money and plenty of leisure time -- and the desire to dress nicely for it".
This jacket is a lovely example of their wares. no exception. A classic two-button sack this is cut from sturdy yet breathable cotton in a lovely shade of deep summer blue. This features contrasting cream buttons, a single center hook vent, a half-lining, and half-canvassing. It was, of course, Union Made in the USA.... and although its excellent condition indicates that it was made very recently it actually dates from the mid-1960s.
This is a wonderful opportunity to acquire a lovely original vintage summer sack jacket from an iconic company for just $35, boxed, shipped, and insured in the USA!
