I like Sid Mashburn’s clothing. The problem with saying that is that I’ve never owned any of his clothing. I’ve never seen it in person; I’ve never even tried it on. I imagine it’d fit. I hope it’d fit. Ultimately, for me, it’s that Sid Mashburn’s clothes are an authentic articulation of what his brand represents, and what he, as a man, represents. Ever since I watched the video of him showing off how his jacket doubles as his briefcase I’ve been enamoured with owning one for myself. One day, I will. Is that cool with y’all?

I want a suit that doesn’t know a time period and doesn’t know geography, either

A briefcase, huh? Just the way all jackets should be, then..

Damn Sid - well done.

Made in Italy, this jacket is incredible. It has been created with a full canvas construction — the sine qua non of tailoring. The canvas has an easy feel and the shoulders are natural. Tailored for a slim fit with a slightly shorter body — if in doubt, size up. We think it’s pretty special.

Sid Says: “This jacket functions like a briefcase… I carry my wallet, my datebook, my phone, my keys, and various sundries, and it still looks great — it’s a workhorse.”

The only way to atone for being occasionally a little over-dressed is by being always absolutely over-educated.
