Tweed Body Armor




This elderly Brooks Bros. tweed suit is one tough garment. It could be worn skiing, it's that thick.

The fabric repels water, snow, ice, mud — and snotty remarks.

I think the shoes are a little too sleek for this suit. Should have worn gunboats.

Looks good Patrick. It is bone chilling out there today.

That is one heck of a great looking suit. Absolutely brilliant.

I love it, I have always wanted a suit like that. I do have one that is similar from Brooks, but it is a featherweight tweed.

I have two other tweed suits but neither is as hairy as this one.

Nothing wrong with slim shoes worn all the time. Better than chuncky shoes worn all the time. Women mix-and-match to their outfits; men should just wear good shoes at all times.
