Black Cororoy jacket conversion

[MacMillan of Rathdown]

Looks nice, and I'm suprised more Americans don't wear corduroy. When I was living in Los Angeles I had a day wear jacket and waistcoat in a light golden brown corduray-- much more comfortable than tweed, especially in August! Presumably you've used black knotted leather buttons? Anyhow-- a sartorial "GOLD STAR".

I have a brown corduroy jacket and vest that I'm looking at for conversion that sounds a bit like that. Glad to hear that it works. I'm thinking it will go well with my Weathered Lamont 1/2 set. It has patch pockets too, so it might be an easy chop job for the lady with the needels.
