from your keyboard to god's ears. The Madison is consistently the best thing at your average good-stuff-impaired Filene's Basement, and I have on more than one occasion entertained the notion of having a tailor try to depleat the pants.

Everyone seems to have missed Yoox crazy low pricing on Chester Barrie suits, there's one left in size euro 52 / us 42 - if this is your size pick it up asap- you'll thank me later =)

I took a chance on a classic navy CB on yoox, they had buttoned all three buttons and put the wrong size on the model wearing it so it looked like crap. When it arrived it turns out to a superb slimfit suit, the lapels roll nicely so it looks exactly like a slim lapel 2-button suit. full canvas + LOTS of handwork - all for Euro 400

That's a solid deal on the Chester Barrie. CB stuff is very nicely made.
