J Press tweed coats at the Presstige level retail for $525, so these are a great value.

For international shipping on blazer and coats, add 15. For suits, add 17. Shipping to Canada is less; email for rates. Google checkout preferred, paypal accepted. USPS Money order accepted as well for US customers.

On offer here is the classic suit model made of imported wool with a blue, green and red plaid on a brown and tan ground. It has a three button front rolling to the second button and a single rear vent. The shaping is minimal; I have pinned it to the dress form but it is in fact a classic sack suit.

NEW $825 J. PRESS classic WOOL TWILL SUIT size 40 S

On offer here is a classic suit on Press' 3 button model. The waist suppression is minimal, and the pants have a flat front. The fabric is a brown and tan wool twill, which is exceptionally long wearing and is suitable in all but the warmest days of the year.

This particular suit was tailored for a client who then never picked it up. So although the sleeves and pant legs have been altered, they may easily be altered again to your own measurements.

Retail on this suit is $825. My starting bid is considerably less.

Measurements, in inches: Top to bottom in back including collar 31, shoulder 18.5, arm 23 with at least 2.5 to let out. Chest 44, coat waist 42. Three button front. Three button on each sleeve. All wool. Fully lined. Single rear vent. Pants waist 39, with 0 to let out; I believe the original waist was between 34 and 36 and may easily be restored to that size. Outseam 38, inseam 28. 1.75 inch cuff. If you let out the cuff you will gain 3.5 inches, and even a 'false cuff' that looks the same from the outside (ask your tailor) should net you two inches or more. Pant leg 19 at ankle. Suit made in USA. Excellent condition, new without tag.
