DESCRIPTION
This suit is very typical of its era, with its high fastening and covered buttons. It is of Swedish origin, made by Strands sometime during the 1960s. It is deadstock, meaning it has never been used, and still retains all its original labels. The fabric is also very typical of the time - a grey twill fabric in worsted wool. The jacket is double-breasted and fastens with three rows of buttons. It features horizontal front pockets with flaps and a breast pocket. The back is straight and has double vents. Inside, it is fully lined and has four inner pockets: one large on each side, plus two smaller ones on the left side.
The trousers are flat front and have slanted front pockets. They have a zip fly and turn-ups. The trousers also retain their original label.
The overall condition of the suit is perfect; it has probably never even been tried on. Please review the photos and form your own opinion on the condition.
SIZE
In size, the suit corresponds to a modern EU 48 (US/UK 38). The trousers are slightly narrower at the waist compared to the jacket, but there is plenty of material to let the waist out if needed. Please scroll down for the exact measurements.
