Thanks @UrbanComposition. I assume its the 10-11oz one. I was thinking of a 12-13oz from Dugdale (for autumn/winter), so its good to hear that you are wearing it currently in SF.

Yesterday, had the pleasure of having my dear friend @Jussi Hakkinen & his better half Anu visiting in Stockholm. Naturally I had to try my best to dress decently.

N.B. These trousers are a LOT more roomy than they appear in this picture. I do have stick legs though.

Nope--this one's Ring Jacket, though I did put a couple of pics of my new Fresco suit jacket in the KW thread.

Well it looks great, either way.
Sleeves could a be a tad shorter, but it looks fantastic. Love the triple patch pockets and the fabric. Flannel? The lapels are a great width. Not ignorantly wide, but still plenty beefy.

Thanks, AAS. Fabric's "creamy waffle" which for all intents and purposes is hopsack. I agree about the sleeves and wouldn't mind if they were about 1cm shorter. Some of my jackets (especially my MTM commissions) do indulge in lapels that flirt with "ignorantly wide", but for a versatile navy blazer I agree that these are well balanced.

You're in no way wrong, but I actually think these sleeves are nearly perfect. Thinking about it mainly from a movement perspective, but I could certainly envision the short sleeve visibility being amazing when in movement.

Really like the look too.
