Closet cleaning: J. Press, Mabitex, Boss

post #1 of 7
Thread Starter 
Details: Paypal (or money order, I guess) only. Prices include shipping in the CONUS; anywhere else, just ask for a shipping quote. BNWT J. Press Presstige sportcoat, sz. 40R (chest 42.5", shoulders 18", sleeve 24.5", BOC length 31.5"). Beautiful coat, bought from the J. Press warehouse sale last week. Unfortunately it's not quite my size. J. Press is a fantastic maker of classic American trad-wear, and this is no exception — US-made, Irish wool, perfect pattern-matching. It's a classic Ivy-style jacket (3-roll-2 button, single vent) with a slightly updated profile (a bit more waste suppression than you'd see on a sack from 1960). Original price was $555. Yours for $198. Hugo Boss tie (width 3.25") Bought new in summer 2009, worn a few times. Great staple, just assertive enough. Yours for $16. Vintage tie (width 2.75"). Bought from SF, but it's too skinny for me. Mabitex trousers, sz. 52 (waist 37", inseam 32" (hemmed, no cuff), leg opening 8.25") Great pants, but this is pair has their newer, slimmer cut. Apparently. When I pulled them on for the first time after getting them back from the tailor that hemmed them, I noticed a piece of lint on the floor. I bent down to pick it up, and the bottom split right then and there. So, if you're a 32" inseam and don't mind a $10 repair, get a brand new pair of Mabitexes for cheap. Yours for $28.

well I don't suggest you pick it up, whatever it was... especially if you're wearing pants.

Same thing happened to me on the new batch of Mabi's, you are not alone! Definitely an easy fix and a good deal.
