Calvin Klein Italian Light Wool Suit, Sz 38 R -- Only $180!!!

post #1 of 12
Thread Starter 
Here we have a $1,300 purchased (from Saks Bal Harbour) beautifully understated Calvin Klein men's suit in black lightweight wool, with very faint burgundy/rust colored pinstripes, worn only once for a wedding and hung in a closet since. I'm happy to answer any questions. Sizing is posted below and the suit will inevitably need to be altered, for an ideal fit. Asking only $180 + s/h - a mere fraction of the original Saks Fifth Ave. price tag, and as always with my forum sales, an absolute steal of a deal! Please look past the lint that blew into a few of the photos below. I had the air con blasting at the time and it was picking up every particle that blew past. The suit is in RETAIL RACK CONDITION and could pass as Brand New by any discerning eye! I've tried my best to detail the colors and pinstripe pattern of the fabric on both the jacket and trousers in several shots below. I'd be glad to offer more specific photos upon request. Thanks again, Style Forum! JACKET MEASUREMENTS: Chest, taken from underarms - 21" Shoulders, taken along contour - 19" Shoulders, taken straight across - 18.2" Inside Sleeve Length, taken from underarm to cuff - 17" Outside Sleeve Length, taken from shoulder to cuff - 25" Outside Sleeve Length, taken along side seam - 23" Overall Length, taken from top of inside lining to hem - 30.5" TROUSER MEASUREMENTS: Label Size - 48 / 38 (Ital) Actual Length of Waist, measured flat - 16.5" Rise - 10" Leg Opening - 8.5" Inseam - 30.5" Pleated and Hemmed

It was purchased around 2002, worn only once in that entire time and has been hanging in a bag taking up closet space since! It's in the exact same new/retail condition as purchased. The price certainly can't be beat... this one's almost a free giveaway!

What are the trouser measurements? Waist/rise (front top of pants to seam of crotch)/outseam/leg opening and are they pleated/flat and cuffed/hemmed? I don't think I'm seriously interested, but other prospective buyers will want these so it won't be wasted effort.

Final Drop down to $130 to bump... and to Dave Brown, orig. post edited with all missing info. Thanks, and this can't get any lower -- it's an absolute steal! ADDED OFFER/BARTER: I will gladly trade this suit for (one) Simonnot Godard pocket square from the Alma Collection. If there are any forum members in Brussels, and want to help me purchase the fuchsia colored linen/cotton pocket square from SG, I will even ship this suit to you for free! The same offer goes for the watch in my signature. I really need to get my hands on this one and have mined every other resource! Anyone who can help will get this suit or watch (or other offerings) for free!

thanks, that's what I thought! (they switched the tags in around 2004) Free bump for a nice suit! Hope it sells. Part of me wants to snag it just because it's a phenomenal deal... but I really don't wear 3B too much, and doubly I don't really wear black suits, and triply it appears slightly too big. Somebody buy it!
