I do volunteer work with an organization that assists survivors of political persecution, and I have donated significant time and resources to one such survivor in particular. He is from west Africa and was a pillar of his community before he was forced to flee. He now has official legal status in America and recently found a decently paying hourly wage job. However, he needs some help getting together initial funds for shelter and other essentials. I have offered to assist him with this, and so I am going to be putting all net proceeds from this thread toward that effort.
Items that are still available are: 44R Polo suit.
FIRST ITEM:
NWT Polo Ralph Lauren, made in Italy by Corneliani. Size is 44R. Model is Polo II -- very soft slightly narrower shoulder, side vents, three-roll-two button, double forward pleated pants. Fabric is a 85% worsted 15% mohair blend in a black and white pick-and-pick (sort of like a micro nailhead pattern). Overall effect is dark grey, and you could definitely wear brown shoes with it. The hand of the fabric is very nice -- very much like a 100% worsted, but the mohair gives it a little firmer of a hand. You could probably wear it year round if you'd like, but I think the weight and weave makes it ideal for spring, summer, and early fall. I really love this suit.
Measurements = 47" chest, 43" waist, 32.5" top of collar down, 19.25" shoulder, 26" sleeve, 37.5" pants waist, 9.25" pants at hem, unaltered inseam.
