Far from unusual at this time.
If you look very carefully you will see he switched to DB about twenty years ago probably with a mix of new suits and others from the Earl Mountbatten's wardrobe skilfully altered for him.
You will still see him wearing SB suits today - in hot places he sensibly wears lightweight SB suits. If you also study photographs of him you will see him in a heavy fawn top coat - dead ringer for Mountbatten's wardrobe.
His Royal Highness is very thrifty with clothes as was demonstrated a couple of years back when he was shown wearing an old Barbour jacket when hedge building on his estate. It comprised more packing tape that waxed cloth!

The contours of this hanger preserve the integrity of garments, keeping them wrinkle-free and away from unnecessary fabric wear (e.g. shoulder dimples, stretching). -
