Update June 27: Now taking a huge loss on these. My loss is your gain


Up for sale is an uber staple Brooks Brothers Fitzgerald suit in charcoal pinstripe wool. New with tags. Recent model (2011-ish)

The Fitzgerald is Brooks Brothers' slimmest cut. The Fitz is one of the most recommended suits on Styleforum. Great half canvas construction. Made in USA.

The worsted wool fabric on these suits is awesome. It has an incredible soft hand and drapes very well. Four season weight. Would make an excellent addition to any closet. You will not be disappointed!

The fabric is charcoal pinstripe. (The other Fitz suit in navy is in these pictures. For fabric comparison only)

Tagged a 40S, but it fits like a 40R

I have excellent feedback here

In store, Brooks Brothers Fitzgerald suits go on sale for about $750. So consider this a deal on an uber staple suit in a rare size.

$349 shipped to the United States or Canada
$325 shipped to the United States or Canada
$315 shipped to the United States or Canada
$310 shipped to the United States or Canada
$299 shipped to the United States or Canada
$275 shipped to the United States or Canada

Incredibly good deal. Won't find a NWT suit in this model and size at this price anywhere else on the net. If you can find one, I will beat it! Any site, including the Bay.

I will ship to the rest of the world at cost. Please add $12 for shipping to the rest of the world (countries that are not the US or Canada).

PayPal or Postal Money order only. I cannot accept personal payments in PayPal. As is implied with all SF classified listings, the sale is final. Sold as is.

First one to pay gets the item.

I will only grant "holds" for those who pay via PayPal eCheck.​
