For your consideration is this vintage Pendleton 100% virgin wool blazer and waistcoat. For more than 150 years, Pendleton has set the standard for American style. With six generations of family ownership, the company remains dedicated to its American heritage, authenticity and fabric craftsmanship. Wool shirts for men were largely utility items in the early 20th century. Drab in design and color, they were worn for warmth and protection from the elements by those who worked outdoors. Clarence Morton (C.M.) Bishop had a vision for wool shirts in vivid colors and intricate patterns. The production of woolen shirting material was a natural extension of the mill's capabilities. In 1924, the legendary Pendleton virgin wool men's shirt was born. By 1929, Pendleton was making a full line of men's virgin wool sportswear. The blazer and waistcoat both feature a nice plaid design with beige, brown, and light brown colors. The inside is lined with a nice light burgundy nylon liner. The blazer and waistcoat feature multicolored buttons all in good condition. The front of the blazer features two lined pockets. Overall the blazer and waistcoat are in good condition for their vintage age and show no signs of obvious damage.
