Description: 1969s vintage two-piece Sharkskin suit from House of Chen. As expected of the Chinese tailors, this garment is impeccably made. A curved lapel below the notch, just a stand out point. Sweat guards in the armpits. Extra panel in the arms for ease of movement. The pants are lined down the front of the legs. Blue sharkskin twill material. Sharkskin describes a specific woven or warp-knitted fabric with a distinctive sheen. Sharkskin is a twill weave fabric created using acetate, rayon, worsted wool, lycra, and other plastic fibers. The arrangement of darker and brighter threads in a twill weave creates a subtle pattern of lines that run across the fabric diagonally and a two-tone, lustrous appearance. Primarily a suiting material. Superb condition. No stains in the armpits. ISSUES: Stain in pant lining. Tiny snag on back shoulder. A small section of loose threads on ledt sleeve. Two small tears (one on the inside cuff of the left sleeve) being repaired in house. See photos for details of condition and style.
