Esquire Magazine demands every man get a tweed jacket this Fall. Good luck finding a nice tweed jacket under $200 right now (the “affordable” option in the article was $348!). BUT there’s hope for you! I found a beautiful tweed jacket at Goodwill this weekend for $10! Great color, great lining, great fit, and elbow patches that probably did some old man real good. So, before you shell out a ton of cash in a retail store, stop by your local Goodwill or resale shop and make any necessary adjustments with your tailor. Tweed often gets better with age anyway…like a good brandy (but with elbow patches).
If you must buy new, here’s a unique option at the bottom of the tweed money chart:
