“Excellent quality, practical and handsom”

“The comments above may be misleading, since I could only get this in a 2XL (46-48) instead of a L)!!! I wanted to inspect it and see if it fit close enough to my size (42-44) or could be altered by a tailor to get there. I decided the quality, style, and leather finish warranted keeping it and actually having it almost completely remade to cut it down to my size and make it look like it is my coat and not some giant relative's! I picked it up today at the tailor's. So, yes, now it does fit and seems right, the sleeves are just right, the body has been taken in, and even with the cost of the alterations, given the sale pricing at STP at this stage on this off the MSRP, I still have a very affordable and quality leather military blazer type coat from Balfour at a fraction of the normal price. The leather is a nu-buck, soft lambskin, supple and comfortable, with a light quilted lining for less bulk. With a sweater or a cardigan underneath, it's ready for hard, cold weather. Or it will be good for spring and cool evenings any time of year. A handsome, traditional blazer that's had some major surgery to slim it down! lol Only thing that could have been better would be to have been offered more sizes when I was shopping and avoid the major alterations. But I really am pleased, not complaining.”
