SOLD! $650 $550 CONUS (retail was $2.1K). Firm, I'm already taking a hit on it.

I bought this earlier a season ago on final sale it hasn't made it into rotation. It deserves better than to hang in my closet forever.

This is a true 3-piece suit in a warm 95% wool + 5% cashmere that I would gauge as in-between light and mid weight flannel, leaning towards mid (and I'd say a true mid weight effect if you're wearing the vest with the jacket).

Part of Hickey Freeman's mainline Mahogany Collection, the "Colton" model is part of their C-Series, their trimmest fit and described as:

New Sartorialist. The C-Series is a new interpretation of a bespoke garment. The deceptively soft shoulders slope gently towards a slight rope effect at the sleeve head. The high gorge line coupled with higher armholes and trimmer sleeves signify the fit attributes found in bespoke tailoring.

The material was originally described as donegal but that looks incorrect; it's a tic-weave of medium gray but with subtle earth tones - bits of cream and faint tan - mixed in. Gives the mid-gray a great "warm" look. Reads as a subtle textured gray at distance and reveals the character at personal distance. Smart enough to span both country and city.

The jacket is fully canvassed with a slim peaked lapel, two button with a beautiful roll, smoked corozo (or maybe horn) buttons, dual flap pockets, dual vents, 3 internal pockets. Unfinished sleeves and comes with buttons. The vest is a 5 button model with 2 welted pockets at the waist and a satin back with belt fastener.

The trousers are single pleated, lined to the knee, with slanted on-seam side pockets and 2 button through back pockts. They are constructed with a full curtain waistband, and a French 3-point tab closure.


Jacket measurements:
  • Chest: 44in / 111.7cm
  • Waist: 42in / 106.6cm (measured below second button, straight across)
  • Length: 31.5in / 80cm measured from top of collar, 30.25in / 76.83cm from bottom of collar
  • Sleeves: 25in / 63.5cm
