Anyone with experiences with them? I have been offered a vintage morning suit (cutaways and striped trousers) but unable to examine the articles of clothing. Comments, views appreciated.

I ordered a coat in Ireland and was not very pleased. That coat, and all the others from Magee I have seen, have very high, flat shoulders, and sleeves that pitch sharply down. I suspect what you have been offered is an old product, so my experience may not be reflective of what the firm produced some time ago.

thanks Doug...yes, this suit that I am being offered is vintage.

The pictures look ok, but I am not sure...and I am not about to bespeak a morning suit anytime soon...considering that I will probably never get to wear it...maybe at my son's wedding...he is only 15 this year, so that may be some time away..
