For sale I have three Southwick suits I came across today, but aren't in my size. I am selling them at my cost - $34.99 each - plus $11 for shipping. You can throw in a couple dollars for paypal fees if you want, but I don't expect it - several people have given me hookups over the years on SF. I'm also down for trades instead of money.

Please don't buy these if you already have a ton of suits or a lot of money to spend - I'm trying to help out recent grads, or students trying to get internships.

These are fantastic starter suits. Good quality, canvassed, nice fabrics, and classic and conservative styling. All are in excellent condition with no real flaws.

They are all basically identical, save for the fabrics. Two-button single breasted, flap pockets, double-pleated pants with cuffs. Pants have two rear pockets, besom front pockets, and inside buttons for braces.

First up is a charcoal gray herringbone flannel. Half-lined jacket. Measures 45" chest, 25" sleeve, 19" shoulder, 31" length, 36" waist (3" to let out), and 30.5" inseam with about .5" to let out.

Next is a really sharp navy blue nailhead. 45.5" chest, 25" sleeve, 19.25" shoulders, 31" length, 35" waist with about 2" to let out, 31" inseam with .5" to let out. The pants have a line pressed into them on the right leg, but this can be steamed out.

Last is a medium gray nailhead. This is more of a 43-44R. 47" chest, 25" sleeve, 20" shoulder, 30.5" length, 36" waist with 2" to let out, 30" inseam with about 1/2" to let out. I didn't get a decent shot of the jacket, so look at the fabric and use your imagination. It's just like the other two above.
