That's good the hear!

Yes! Looking great, NCF. You know that was the original knit (olive and cream) pattern, the burgundy and grey was an after-thought. You will see how the plan comes together when these are realeased next week.

Are these separates, simon or part of a suit?

[SJC]

Separate, Tom, no jacket as yet, if the trousers go and there is a demand i will make a nice little 3 button peak for these. But let's shift the trousers first.

Not actually dressed up to go anywhere for obvious reasons but I wanted to show off the pilot's jumper (I believe a few are still available in the outlet). Turtle(mock to be exact) neck jumpers are growing on me lately for their ability to simplify an outfit (no shirt or neckwear) . I love this finer knit and slim fit as it it very streamlined and feels perfectly comfortable under a suit jacket or sports coat. I hope we see more plain, fine knitwear in the future! PS:It is more burgundy than tomato red-it's the camera flash.

[Sean Longden]

That a classic, elegant look.

Out sledging with my niece. Somewhere underneath the layers (mine, not hers...) is an SJC wool-cotton Tattersal shirt...

I wish i was going sledging today!

The 2020 King Cole suite premiered in the home office today! The trousers will have to be shortened, hence I'm wearing one that's not part of the suit (Filson whipcord). But coming to think of it, you don't need any trousers at all in a Zoom meeting... I guess it would make sense to just buy jackets and waistcoats... And as always, apologies for the sorry-looking slippers. I'll never be able to wear "real" shoes again...

In any case, the suit is really nice. Another step forward compared to earlier suits! The fabric feels great, soft but still sturdy, and the cut compares very favourably with older versions of the King Cole. I am kicking myself for not having bought another in a different colour. But then, the way SJC works, I'm sure something even better will come along next autumn!

[SJC]

Blimey, what a nice fit. Congrats Philipp!

[Philipp]

Thanks! The credit is all yours! I'd say this is your nicest woolen fabric so far. The shirt is the new ivory spearpoint, by the way. Also very nice.

The only thing that's strange is that I bough waistcoat and jacket in the same size (42). The jacket fits extremely well, the waistcoat is a rather on the tight side. I'll have to lose a bit of winter blubber....

[SJC]

Thanks!!

Today on my walk in winter wonderland I paired my custom-made tweed ensemble, trousers and short jacket that I picked up yesterday from my tailoress, with the SJC U-Boater. I really think it totally completes the look

[Philipp]

The King Cole suit, now complete with trousers, in the home office. Including my by now-trademark slippers.... One of these days I have to post an image of me wearing appropriate footwear........

The trousers have been inexpertly shortened and hemmed - by me!- until such times as tailors open again. I also have to move the suspender buttons a bit. Otherwise no complaints!
