The Andover Shop is a traditional American clothier that has been offering the finest menswear to New England elites — scholars, artists and statesmen alike — since its establishment in 1948 in Andover, and then in Cambridge. It is today among only a handful of independent clothiers that stand by a style, “the Ivy Style”, that embodies the traditional American elegance.

This beautiful great coat was most likely made by Invertere for the Andover shop. Invertere in its heyday was known as one of the best makers of classic English country-style clothing.
