IC: Gieves and Hawk DB Navy pinstripe Suit 44L

post #1 of 8
Thread Starter 
Ok,
I have had this in my closet for a while, thinking I would have it altered, but I dont have time, and I feel this is just too long for me.

It is a lovely heavier weight navy with a gray pinstripe.

6X2 button, with double vents. Full canvass construction with the most subtle pick stitching I have ever seen.
It has all sorts of handwork details
Hand attached collar
Basically a 44L, with high armholes and a relatively slim cut.
Pants are double pleat with uncuffed hem.
There are no condition issues here, it is clean and in top shape.

Please note this is the Gieves that is made in Italy, not Britain.
When I bought this, I noticed that it was made in Italy, not G.B.
Apparently, there are 3 levels:
1 or top level made in Britain
2 or mid-level made in Italy
3 or lower end, made in US.
Not sure what to charge for this, plus I know that DB suits are not all the rage here.

It is a very nice and well made suit that will be great for a tall size 44 that has a hankering for the banker or very dressy look.
I will take pics if there is interest and certainly measure for those interested.

THANKS!!

and yet more...

New Twist

I would also be willing to trade!

I am in need of a basic business suit:
Grey or Blue
Double Vents
44R
I prefer no pleats
Slim fit
I also like little to no padding
of similar quality of make as this
Prefer Italian make.
