There's just more room in the skirt than I'd like. I'm going to wear it a bit to let things settle a bit before thouching it though. Probably my most comfortably fitting suit so far. Frank continually improves them. I have found when I try to intervene with something it doesn't come out how of like. Best to shut my mouth.

This was my commission this year...old school (1927) cloth, overcoat weight, made into a versatile winter sport jacket...needed it today, nasty out, multiple pics to show different button configurations. I like to have choices.

Forget cold, bullets can't pierce this thing. Its the second "Capone" Coat Frank has made me, and I love them both. First one is a super heavyweight overcoat, fabric from the 1930s. They just don't make cloth like that anymore...

I just picked up my first commission from Frank. Well not my first but the first that was ready. Just an odd pair of trousers. They look great!

Latest from Frank: Brown Harrison's Mirage with subtle triple blue windowpane. Wool/linen/silk, with neapolitan shoulder. Bonus points if you pick up on the clever bit about the tie.
