Today’s a blue and white kinda day (technically indigo and off-white). N1, Merz, 634S-A

129 + 735 was inevitable!

Back on the (this time with Merz and 634-WT). This jacket certainly gets a lot of love even in the real world - a friend accused me of looking stylish earlier

Can’t seem to get a decent picture today but here’s the best I could manage - 292 and 634D

On the plus side, the sun has revealed the start of something interesting.

Not quite sure what I was thinking when I got dressed but I decided to go with it.
129 , Merz, 3sixteen, RW

debut!

So much warmth coming off this thread I’ve had to turn my heating off

Old favourites for the New Year - 269 and 720 - and not a covetable jacket in sight

Best wishes for 2025!

Indigo N1, 298 (too long since its last outing), 666S-21

Another day, another CPO! Nowhere near as good as @Graham’s but at least I’ve taken it out of the wardrobe!

362, 720

First official wear for the 129

@Tago-Mago thanks! I think you made the right choice - duck would maybe be a step too far with the 144 as well

X-post from WAYWD. Feels great, looks great and sleeve length is not a problem. Completely agree with @jimcord about versatility.

First outing for the 414. As expected it works perfectly with my 634D!

@scooter it’s just one of those things (assuming you don’t have access to my diary) so nothing to apologise for. I’ll try to find a quiet corner so I can catch up with everyone before the next phase of my evening.

@Giles thanks. Those were from before my time but I’ll keep half an eye out. I’m not in desperate need at the moment but we all know what happens when we see something good.

I’ve no idea why I didn’t think of this before, but a 720 using the same brown whipcord as the N1 from fw24 would be great

@T4920 thanks. If I ever get burgled I’ll know where to look

@T4920 thanks! The green is an anomaly. It’s dark wood (maybe hongmu) with a rouge marble inset top.

Fun fact, the tea set was previously owned by Harry Worth, then my mum, then me!

@T4920 here you go! Chinese c19th, probably made for the European market.

@DeeDee85 yes, it arrived direct from Gosport this evening but pics will have to wait till I’m home at the weekend - I’ve got no suitable bottoms with me.

In terms of fit, there’s more excess fabric in the lower body than some of my work shirts (true to the published measurements) but it doesn’t show like it would with a heavier shirt as the fabric is really soft and drapes nicely. No problem with arm length (@JamesB managed to find me an extra half inch, which definitely helps, but it would probably have been tolerable without).

Completely agree with everyone else about the level of interest in the fabric and the red stitching.

Overall it’s fair to say I’m really happy.

Edit: just noticed it has the internal print which I love in this tonal iteration! Apologies for the poor lighting.
