Deal context
A British outerwear house that outfitted Churchill and the 1953 Everest expedition, here at a price that doesn't reflect its archive pedigree.
Why it scored
Aquascutum's gabardine and military tailoring built its archive reputation -- pieces from this era rarely appear secondhand with any documentation intact. The brand's resale following is smaller than its history warrants, so well-made vintage sits longer and lower than equivalent Burberry. Listed today, this one arrives before the small circle of buyers who search by name has had time to notice.
