Originally posted by JBarwick View PostYea, MTM is expensive. My tailor charges $1K+ and doesn't allow much variability in terms of style. This one has held up pretty well over the past year so I doubt I would need to upgrade for another 2-3 years depending on the job environment.

Bruce Field is somehow able to source great fabrics and sell sport coats at a reasonable price though with some Euro fashion forward flair (thinner lapels, slightly cropped jackets). Once this wears out, I will figure out how to replace it with the same fabric but better construction.
Originally posted by hornsup84 View PostI'll have to take a picture of my recent MTM sportcoat, which is Loro Piana as well and looks very similar to that -- safe/sad to say I paid a lot more for mine, but it's something I've been looking to get for a while.

Is this the brown S&M jacket? I am going back and forth between the brown and the blue, especially now that the price is even lower. Thoughts?
These are my current sportscoats: navy SuSu Hanava, a navy/gray/olive plaid(ish) jacket from Ader Milan, a light brown hounds-tooth with rush/olive overcheck Southwich, a green/gray LBM 1911 and a darker brown with burgundy windopane (Brooks Brother's Own/Southwick). I also have a light brown HB from S&M which is linen/wool and a warmer weather item.

Please do. Interested to see which direction you went with styling and how it turns out.
Tried to get another pic up but got the error message again... ugh.

[MENTION=2622]hornsup84[/MENTION] - Looks great! My jacket has stripes of blue, green, red, and orange in it. Yours looks similar but I love the button color and patch pockets.
[MENTION=14682]Leanderthal[/MENTION] - I am wearing my Chipp rust grenadine today as well though not with that beautiful of a knot. I get a fat stubby knot since it is so thick but the dimple comes through.
