The brown herringbone tweed cloth is a well-established classic that is about 13-14 ounces in weight. The coat will be finished with a three-button front and patch pockets, which will give it both a classic and casual look.
I will soon undertake the pad-stitching of the lapel which will help create a very natural roll. These stitches will help retain the roll of the lapel for the life of the garment. I look forward to finishing this project.
