Elvis 100% - Jumpsuits - Black Herringbone 2

Black Herringbone 2 is almost identical to the first one, but the lower part of the chest opening is sewn together and the herringbone pattern reaches four inches below the chest opening. This version of the Herringbone suit is without a doubt the most known.

The pants that were usually used with this top part of the outfit have red leg inserts from just under the knee.

The two inches wide black fabric belt was sometimes used for this suit. But usually a belt with red horizontal stripes was used. It had the same herringbone pattern, with approximately six inches long fringes at each end. The belt was tied around the top part of the outfit.

A black scarf with red and white stripes was usually used with Black Herringbone 2, also named Black Cossak or Black Karate Style suit. This suit was often used under this Las Vegas season. The top part of this outfit was also later used with pants without the red leg insert. It was also used in private flying from Las Vegas to Phoenix, September 9^th, 1970, and when he met President Nixon in the White House in December 21^st, 1970. Later it was used with the velvet jacket from 1968 TV Special. Black Herringbone 2 suit can be seen on display at Graceland.
