Interest Check: Saint Andrews & D'Avenza 39-40R

I may have access to a bunch of NWOT Saint Andrews or D'Avenza suits. Some have been altered but never worn. And this is not the ebay NWOT suits that when they arrive it has clear signs of wear, stains ect. These I personally guarantee (full money back) when they are listed NWOT they are just that. All suits are from very recent collections, last 1-3 years at most. A good portion of the suits is from Davide Cenci http://www.davidecenci.com/


Note: All suit have working buttonholes with approx 30" sleeve lengths. I am sure you could adjust the slightly but not much. So if there is interest please let me know and I can get some measurements and photos. Approx price depending on fabric and maker would be 400+. Possible discount for group buy.

Retail is 2200+ on all of the suits as I am sure most of you are aware. RLPL suits by St Andrews are in the 4K range now.

pfrOg, is that sleeve measure from the shoulder to the the sleeve hem? Or is it from the middle of the back to the sleeve hem?

The latter would be a very short sleeve. And the former would be a very long sleeve.

Middle of the back, some may also be 31" these are approximate measurements based on his normal measurements on most of his tailored items. It is akin to the the gentlemens shirt length. It is short but I am sure there are others with his measurements. It is a killer deal if the fit is right for someone. The suits are stunning.

Hello, I am new to the forum, introduced by pfr0g, and grateful for the intro. I have a large number of suits, slacks and sportcoats, some outer coats and jackets, and want to sell many of them. The suits are mostly from Davide Cenci, with an occasional one from Bergdorf Goodman or Hugo Boss, Balzarinni. The clothing is either 39 short or 40 short, depending on when purchased. I am 5'6", wear a 29.5 to 30" shirt sleeve length... I live in Manhattan and would be best purchased if the buyer could arrange to try them on. All clothing has been altered, the jackets have working button holes which limits the amount that sleeve length may be altered. I am looking to sell for about $400 per suit. Any interest or suggestions how to sell would be appreciated. All clothing is in pristine condition, many never worn. Thanks for reading the post.

Damn, those are some short sleeves.

St. Andrews suits are excellent made.
D'Avenza are relatively unknown, but worksmanship is right up there with the Brionis/Belvest.

I too have short arms, so these sleeve lengths would be about right for me. I'd definitely be interested.

I have received a few PM's. The gentlemen selling the suits is away from his computer right now. I will work with him to get some measurements taken and some pictures posted.

Hello again, It's the newcomer to the forum. From the messages that I have received, it's now apparent to me that I have to post some pictures of the suits and take some more precise measurements beyond size... so I will do that and post the pictures as soon as I can... tonight and tomorrow. Sorry for learning this step by step.
