1970s | Byron Center Junior Band Blazer | Red - 10

Description:

Item: Original 1970s blazer in a vivid red finish with a sharp tailored shape, notched lapels, flap pockets and metal button front. Finished with a “Byron Center Junior Band” chest emblem in black, giving it that strong school and uniform crossover look. The cut is lightly fitted through the body with a neat structured feel, making it a very striking period piece.

Era: 1970s

Condition: Very good vintage condition. Presents well overall with strong colour and clean structure. There is a small mark to the arm, along with light, honest wear in keeping with age, but nothing that detracts from the overall look or wearability.

Provenance Note: Pieces like this always have extra charm because they carry their original identity with them. The bright red colour and band insignia give it real visual punch, while the clean 1970s blazer shape keeps it wearable. A very good piece for buyers drawn to graphic vintage with a bit of story behind it.

Condition Notes:

Please be aware. All our true vintage items come with a history, and minor signs of age, wear, or character should be expected. Any notable marks, damage, or repairs will always be clearly mentioned. This natural wear is part of what gives genuine vintage its individuality and authenticity. True vintage should not be confused with modern second-hand clothing

We photograph all garments using a professional, studio-grade imaging system designed to show colour, texture, and shape as accurately as possible. This setup was built specifically to give a true representation of each piece and avoid misleading presentation; however, we do not take photos of inside the garment. While we take great care in inspecting every piece, with true vintage it is always possible that a minor detail may be missed.

Sizing Notes:

Please compare these measurements to a similar item you already own, laid flat (rather than measuring your body). Start with the bust measurement, then check length. Vintage sizing runs small and cuts vary significantly from modern equivalents, so the measurements listed are the best guide to fit.

Our modern sizing estimates are based on bust measurements using the following sizing scale:

UK 6 (30–31")

UK 8 (32–33")

UK 10 (34–35")

UK 12 (36–37")

UK 14 (38–39")

UK 16 (40–41")

UK 18 (42–43")

UK 20 (44–45")

For jackets, knitwear, sweaters, and padded outerwear, we grade one size down to allow for structure, lining, bulk.or layering.
