The tailcoat originates from the 19th century. Starting life as a riding jacket, its cut away front edges kept the coat out of the way of the rider's knees whilst the two buttons at the back enabled him to fasten the tails out of the way when on horseback.
The coat has a slope away front with a single button closure and high waistline and comes in traditional black herringbone, suitable for weddings, Ascot and other formal occasions.

Mr A. Seaborn - 15th June 2011
Received my leather blazer promptly on expected delivery day. Absolutely delighted with perfect fit and high quality of this jacket. I was unable to find this product in any shop in the Trafford centre or in any large high street clothing store, and would have expected to pay considerably more if I did. I thouroughly recommend suitsmen if you are looking for a well crafted leather jacket.
