SWEDISH 1940S DARK GREY PINSTRIPE DOUBLE BREASTED JACKET BY STEENS. SIZE CA EU 50 (US/UK 40)

DESCRIPTION

This jacket is of Swedish origin and was made sometime during the 1940s in Stockholm by Steens, a menswear shop that actually occupied the very premises where our own shop is located today (!). It is made from a dark grey pinstripe cloth. It was most likely originally part of a complete suit, but works equally well as an odd jacket, for example worn with a pair of cream-coloured trousers.

The jacket is double-breasted and has three rows of buttons, two of which are used for fastening. It has horizontal front pockets with welt openings and a breast pocket. There is a buttonhole in the left lapel. At the back, it is straight-cut and has a single vent. Internally, it is fully lined and has three internal pockets, two on the left-hand side and one on the right.

The condition is excellent, with no defects to speak of. Please study the photos and form your own impression of the condition.
