Tobacco brown tweed three-piece suit

A Savile Row-quality three-piece in a heavy herringbone tweed, the colour of dried tobacco leaf with flecks of forest green and slate. The jacket is structured through the shoulder with a suppressed waist, double-vented, and worn buttoned. The waistcoat fits close to the chest with six buttons and a low cut that reveals a crisp shirt below. Trousers are full but tapered, breaking cleanly over the shoe.
