Brodericks Men's Wool Blazer - Size 44R

This item is a men's wool blazer manufactured by Brodericks of Fergus, Ontario, as indicated by the woven label. The blazer appears to be made from a rich, deep burgundy wool fabric, visible in the upper left corner of the image, contrasting with the dark, possibly olive or charcoal, patterned lining. The lining exhibits a subtle, diagonal twill-like weave, typical for suit or blazer linings, and shows good condition with no apparent tears or major stains from the visible portion. A prominent white fabric label is stitched onto the lining, providing manufacturing details. This label contains several alphanumeric codes: 'L-', '1236A', '8152', 'JKR: 1015', 'BUN: 42627', and 'BUN SEQ: 367', which likely correspond to internal production or style numbers. Crucially, the size is indicated as '44 R', suggesting a men's size 44 Regular. The label also states 'MA: 92/L', which could be a material or production date code (possibly 1992 or 2092, or a specific lot number beginning with 92), and definitively states 'MADE IN CANADA' at the bottom. The green Brodericks brand label features 'Brodericks' in an elegant cursive script with 'Fergus' in a smaller, complementary font below it, indicating a custom or higher-quality garment. The stitching on both labels appears neat and secure. No significant wear, damage, or repairs are visible in the captured details, suggesting the blazer is in good or very good used condition. The quality of the stitching and the presence of a specific manufacturer from a known region imply a garment of good craftsmanship, likely from the late 20th or early 21st century given the '92' potentially referring to a production year.
