Gorgeous 3-piece single-breasted suit in Minnis air force blue flannel (0304) made by W.W. Chan. 2-button jacket with single-breasted waistcoat. Flat front pants with belt loops, side adjusters, and suspender buttons; 1.5" cuffs. Price is $600, which includes priority shipping in US with insurance; shipping elsewhere is at cost.
This is a spectacular suit that has been worn only once. I foolishly ordered it just before embarking on a strength training program that saw my weight increase about 25 lbs, and of course the suit no longer fits. Let that be a lesson to all of you.
Shoulders are natural, lightly-padded for Chan. Sleevehead has very slight definition in the seam where it meets the shoulder line (i.e., it is not a knocked-down shoulder). As you might expect from Chan, the style is a moderately structured British silhouette. Honestly, it is a gorgeous suit.
The suit fit me to a T when I was 160 lbs (@ 5'10") and wore a 38/39. Standard allowances are available for alterations to both the jacket and trousers. This is the first of several very nice pieces I am putting up for sale (including a W Bill linen suit and a DB in a greyish navy H Lesser 11 oz), so if this fits you, you could have a run of good deals.
Jacket:
2-button
side-vents
fully lined
Equivalent to a 38/39R
Chest (pit-to-pit): 20.5"
Waist (across at 2d button): 18.75"
Shoulder (seam-to-seam straight across): 18.5"
Back (base of collar to bottom): 30"
Sleeve (shoulder seam to sleeve): 24.25" [buttonholes are finished of course]
Vest fits someone of the same measurements as the jacket
Trousers:
Flat front with 1.5" cuffs
Tab enclosure with zip fly
side adjusters
belt loops
suspender buttons
Front rise: 10.5"
Waist: 33"
Inseam: 31.5"
Hips: 40"
Leg opening: 8.5"
