Unexpected Discovery.

Sometimes you find the best things in the unlikeliest places.

Take this corduroy jacket.

As English as the Union Jack.

But I found it in Florence.

I was sitting in Fuor d’Acqua in the San Frediano neighborhood. Terrific seafood place.

(Better than Greens in London at half the price.)

In walks this couple. She’s beautiful. Tanned. Dripping in gold.

He’s equally handsome and tanned, but wearing this jacket, dripping with casual insouciance.

Most of the other diners were not-so-furtively glancing at her.

I, as usual, was looking out for your best interests.

English Corduroy Blazer (No. 2782). Made from 100% cotton corduroy in a very fine 11-wale cut. Enzyme washed. That means you’ll put it on and think you’ve had it for 20 years. Faux horn buttons. Notched collar, double-back vents, and lots of useful pockets.

Two flapped, billows pockets on the hip with a small hidden pocket under each flap.

Dress it up or down. Either way, you’ll be both comfortable and confident. Imported.

Men’s even sizes: 38 through 48.

Color: Tan Base with Charcoal Print.
