Beautiful and rare double-breasted Workwear Jacket by Brown’s Beach of Japan, who brought the venerable and long since defunct Massachusetts company back to life and have been producing outstanding reproductions for the past few years. Their attention to detail is amazing, as you can see from the photo I just took of the cloth in this jacket laid against the cloth of an original Brown’s Beach jacket. It’s the last photo in this auction. The reproduction is on the left, by the way. Pretty amazing! I ordered this this double breasted version directly from Japan a few years back. Unfortunately for me, but not for you, it was too small and I have only ever tried it on. Never even wore it outside. It’s time to move it along to someone who will appreciate it. It is sold out and I think you would need either a magic wand or a time machine to find another, especially in this size, which corresponds to a US 42-44 Regular. (check measurements and allow for the fact that Brown’s Beach cloth is quite thick)

Comes complete with tag and even the plastic bag which is a faithful reproduction of the bags in which the original jackets were sold.

Comes with two sets of buttons - one nautical and the other just regular civilian type. I went with the regular buttons because this is more of a 1930’s Workwear Style than a nautical style of jacket.

Exact measurements as follows, in inches:

Shoulder seam to shoulder seam across the back- 19

Armpit to armpit across the back- 24

Shoulder seam to end of sleeve- 25

Base of collar to bottom of jacket- 29
