    3x great ~40R jackets: Cucinelli, Suit Supply, Emile Laufaurie

    Three great jackets that I no longer wear after losing some weight: 1) Cucinelli sport coat — $359 Tagged size 50R. This is the iconic Cucinelli look in 100% virgin wool. Light, soft gray jacket with the signature suede elbow patches and gorgeous handwork throughout. Chest: 20" Shoulder: 18"...

    Thick as Thieves rich blue sportcoat ~40R

    Up for auction is a Thick as Thieves sportcoat that Jason made up in summer of 2010. It fit me great, but it doesn't get the wear it deserves. It's very soft and unstructured, and is in a rich medium blue birdseye wool tweed with mother of pearl buttons. Dual vents and all the handwork TaT is...

    hickey sport coat 42R brown/gray Made in USA

    Great jacket, but it never fit me — something made me think I should size up... Anyway, it's like new, probably worn half a dozen times at most, and I bought it in Spring 2011. At any rate, it's a great item in supersoft wool with a gray-brown herringbone pattern. It's single-vented with patch...

     Sorry, just saw your question. It has a classic center vent.

    Do you recommend buying my own suit fabric directly or from my tailor?

     Probably not more cost effective, as your tailor can buy at wholesale prices. Also, most tailors won't do this for you until you've gotten a suit or two made up already. Providing your own fabric is called "CMT," search the forum for more info.

    Looks like about 1 1/8".

     I've found that sport jackets tend to be shorter than suit jackets. This is just based on trying things on in the showroom, though, so I don't know that I'm comparing Washington to Washington.

     +1, this is my understanding as well. I've never seen a Sevilla cut in the wild, though.

     I don't own it, but I tried one on in the store. Great item — it's got a little more substance than you'd expect from a pure cotton jacket.

    Bicolor knit tie!

    I know how you guys love your bicolor knits. This is a beautiful one at an unheard-of price. I've never worn it out of the house, so consider it like new. Width: 2 7/8" Length: 58 1/2" 100% silk, handmade.

    J. Press tie, handmade in the USA! Classic pattern!

    Good call — I had one from Chipp for sale on this thread earlier, but I removed it when it sold. I'll change the title to avoid confusion.

    J. Press tie, handmade in the USA! Classic pattern!

    I have a nice J. Press tie up for sale. This is almost unworn — I put it on once after picking it up earlier this year, but I don't care for the trad-style tie construction that uses very light interlining. It's a great look, though, and versatile. Width: 3.5", length 57".

    Bump and a price drop.

    BNWT J. Press sportcoat 40R — ivy style!

     I agree, that seemed weird when I was measuring it. I'm never sure how to get this measurement with any precision, so I tried again and got 21.0": For what it's worth, while this is my only J. Press jacket, I also wear a 40R in Brooks Brothers's slimmer lines, and it fits me perfectly.
