A Historical Emporium Exclusive!

Dressed for an honest day’s work at the printing press, our Bosworth Three-Piece Sack Suit offers the authority of a gentleman without sacrificing practicality. Even in the sweltering heat of a steam-operated shop, propriety demanded that a man remain properly attired — particularly when business or social callers might arrive unannounced.

The Bosworth Sack Coat fastens with four buttons — a common detail of the era — and maintains clean exterior lines with no outer pockets. Practicality remains intact with a convenient interior breast pocket and a discreet hidden “ticket” pocket for securing small valuables.

The soft wool-blend fabric keeps the Bosworth Trousers dressy and stylish with a thin vertical pinstripe. Cut true to the era, they feature a high waist, button-front fly, suspender buttons, two front slant pockets, one coin pocket, and one rear inset pocket. Trousers are unlined and hemmed with a 36-inch inseam.

Finally, the Bosworth Vest features a pointed-front hem and notch collar reminiscent of the vintage era. Buttons fasten up the front, and two inset front pockets offer storage for small, on-the-go items. It is self-backed and includes an adjuster buckle.

The Bosworth Sack Suit is crafted from a blend of 25% wool, 35% polyester, and 40% acrylic, and the jacket & vest both feature a full 100% acetate lining. Imported. Dry clean only. 

Fit Note: This Sack Coat is a Slim Fit. If you intend to wear it fully buttoned or prefer additional room through the midsection, we recommend sizing up.








Size Guide

Bosworth Sack Coat Sizing Chart
Our coats are made with typical American sizing, meaning your chest measurement (in inches) is the size you should choose.
To measure your chest: Raise your arms slightly and measure just under your arms. Be sure to cross over the shoulder blades and the fullest part of the chest. If your belly measures larger than your chest, use your belly measurement for coat size.
Longs: If indicated in the selection list (e.g. 46L,) long sizes may also be available. Longs are approximately 2" longer in the back and sleeves.

Bosworth Trousers Sizing Chart

As you can see from the photos, these old fashioned trousers sit higher on the body than modern pants do.

For best fit, measure your torso (in inches) just below your belly button, and select this size of trousers.

In many cases, this will be one or more size above your customary pants size.

Inseam

Our trousers come with a 36 inch inseam. If you need them shorter, you will need to have them tailored locally to your desired fit.
