Description
Yes, the label says 40S but it has been tailored so it's closer to 38S.This is a classic black tuxedo: jacket is single button onthe front, silk buttons, and a notch lapel; pants have silk stripes on eachside and suspender buttons. Some stores are trying to pass off average blacksuits as tuxedos — multiple buttons, plastic buttons, no silk stripe — but thisone is a real, classic tuxedo.
This listing includes the jacket, vest, and pants shown inthe photo. It does NOT include the white shirt, bow tie, shoes, or anythingelse.
Measurements taken on garments lying flat. Measurementsapproximate; I am not a tailor.
See photos for example of fix. Model is 5’9” and 150 lbs andusually wears jacket size 36S and pants size 30x30.
Jacob Reed’s Sons was a classic Philadelphia menswear brand.
They closed in 1983 so this tuxedo is probably from the 1970s or early 1980s. Seegoogle for more info. "New York has Brooks Brothers, New Haven has J. Press, and Philadelphia had Jacob Reed’s Sons."
