    Hi

    Cardigan is all black see picture below you can barely notice the sleeve patches that's why most have left them on.

    Chest width (pit to pit) : 20inch

    Dude

    Maybe I missed something here it's advertised as black and I have confirmed its black all over so why would you think them brown? On the picture I took I turned the sleeves over so you could see how well the patches blend in.

    What other pictures do you require?

    If you seriously need another picture let me know and I will post here

    Cheers :007)

    They blend in so well that they are almost invisible :))

    I have the same black cardigan and can confirm that the black patches are very hard to spot, even close up!

    It's a great item and looks good with the QoS ensemble!

    Agreed. I've just sewn leather buttons on mine.i love it but am not convinced it is worth the £160 U.K. Price tag in terms of quality.

    Read my earlier posts on this. I ordered mine from the US and it was in the sale. Had it sent over and it ended up costing £70 (after a late sting for import and tax which I thought I'd escaped) :(

    I tend to agree maybe not worth the full £160 but as I got mine for £80 and thats what I am going to let it goe for - a bargain I thought for a damn good stand in for the TF original but seems there is a lack of interest (though I know Jan is a bad month for most that whay I am in no hury)

    Where did you get the leather buttons from ? Are they black? Did you have to adjust eth button hole at all for a fit?

    I can only find plastic black faux leather buttons here in eth UK

    If you can get to Marylebone go to the Button Queen. It's a button shop and I've got my black leather buttons from them

    Ouch :# that's quite a mark up for you guys. The original US price was only $160. 160 pounds is steep indeed.

    Just a small tip: bring the cardigan with you so you can get the right button size that fits through the button hole.
