Wardrobe clearance! Hardly worn, bargain prices - RLPL, Austin Reed, Hackett!

Want some great bargains? Grab 'em quick!

Discounts for multiple purchases - and grab the whole lot for just $325!

Please be aware, apart from multiple purchase discount, these prices are fixed - the clothes still more or less fit me despite being a trifle big, so if they don't sell at these prices, I'm keeping them.



1) RLPL pink oxford button-down shirt - $29 (retails would be hundreds) SOLD



Tagged small, but I would say this would fit a 15-15.5. I've worn it a maximum of 5 times and it's still in pristine condition with many years service ahead of it. The sleeves are too long for me, and I don't feel like altering them, so it can be yours instead.

Collar (internal) 15.25"
Sleeve (from centre-back) 34.5"



3) Austin Reed ropestripe black worsted wool suit - $99 (retail would be over $1000) SOLD



MTM, but around 38S-40S

Bought several years ago and a little too large for me these days. Not going to lie to you, I've worn this a fair bit, esp in the first year I owned it. Probably about 40 times I'd guess. Nonetheless, I take very good care of my clothes and don't have a physically demanding job so it's still in virtually pristine condition. No tears, stains, nicks, etc, etc. It has many years of wear ahead of it.

Jacket - 3 button, notch lapels, 2 vents, 2 flap pockets, usual array of inside pockets, burgundy lining.

shoulder-shoulder 19"
chest 42.5"
length from base of collar 30"
crown-cuff 23.25" (+1")

Trousers - single reverse pleat, plain cuffs.

waist 31"
inside leg 28"
cuff diameter 9.125" (circumference 18.25")



3) Austin Reed ropestripe navy worsted flannel suit - $99 (retail would be over $1000) SOLD



MTM, but around 38S-40S.

Bought at the same time as the previous one, identical details/style design and being sold for the same reason. Also still in virtually pristine condition. No tears, stains, nicks, etc, etc. Many years of faithful wear ahead of it.

Jacket - 3 button, notch lapels, 2 vents, 2 flap pockets, usual array of inside pockets, pale blue lining with star design.
Trousers - single reverse pleat, plain cuffs.

Measurements - same as other Austin Reed above (ordered at same time).



4) Hackett russet moleskin jacket - $79 (retail would be over $600) SOLD



Tagged 38S, but I think might be better for a 40S... check measurements to be sure though!

Again, just too big for me. Impulse purchase last year and worn just 3 times at most. Still in absolutely perfect condition. If I was a shyster, I'd sell it as BNWOT!

hacking pockets, centre vent, very modern (still being sold in Hackett outlets)

shoulder-shoulder 18.5"
chest circumference 43.75
length from base collar 29.5"
crown-cuff 24.5


5) Marks & Spencer's grey melange wool jacket - $39 (retail would be around $200) SOLD



Tagged 38S, again a 40S might also fit into it. Check the measurements!

From M&S higher Italian Collezione range and a couple of years old. Not going to lie to you, it's no RLPL, but it's a very serviceable department store quality jacket that I've worn about 5 times (probably less).

shoulder-shoulder 18.5"
chest circumference 43"
length from base collar 29.5"
crown-cuff 24.25"

I wear suits sized 38R. Would the Austin reeds fit me ?

Are the Austin Reeds canvassed?

The sleeves would need letting down, but there's some material there to do that. The suit's overall length would be acceptable I think.

The trousers do not have much extra material to let them down - 0.75" only available. That 0.75" is currently being used as a hem, but can be used to length the leg if a tailor attached a black strip of cloth to create a new hem. Easily done.

Shoulders/chest/waist should be fine for you.

Best advice is to check the measurements vs. a suit/jacket of your own to be certain they will fit.

I knew someone was going to ask that. The honest answer is that I don't believe so, but I'm pretty awful at the "pinch test" so can't say for certain. At most, they would be partially canvassed. I think they're probably fused though.

I would say that the main problem with fused suits is bubbling in the dry cleaners. That tends to happen because of BAD fusing which comes away with the first dry cleaning. These suits have both been dry-cleaned 3 or so times with absolutely no ill-effects so can I say for certain that however they've been made, they've been made well. They are both very durable suits.

To address some of the questions I've been getting in one swoop:

- everything is in very good, near mint condition, as described.
- the RLPL oxford has single button cuffs and a chest pocket.
- the Austin Reed suits were MTM, not RTW, which is why I can't give a tagged size. The provided measurements should be useful in comparing to a jacket/suit of your own though. I'm not particularly weirdly shaped so there are no oddities in the pattern. They should fit similarly to an equivalent RTW suit with those measurements.
- they are true 3 button suits, but as you can see in the photos the roll is to literally just above the top button so function very nicely with just the middle button done up and I personally wear them that way. If you wanted to button both the top and middle button though, you could.

Hope that helps people decide which items are for them!
