Aquascutum suits

I'm not familiar with Aquascutum suits. Can anyone speak to the quality and whether or not this is a good deal? I can get is for around $310. Thanks! http://www.aquascutum.co.uk

Remove the link or someone might buy it themselves. Host the pictures yourself then post them.

It looks god awful on that model.

They are supposed to be decent quality, and I don't think you will better it at that price.

Wow, they make a 36L - I gotta point that out to my brother.

I've been eyeing a Aquascutum blazer and if it wasn't black would probably have already bought. Seems like a nice quality, if not super SF level, still above most entry level brands.

I should have added that it's a one button. Here are two photos.

Is this okay for a wedding?

Those lapels look messed up to me...

Aquascutum Ltd isn't the mainline stuff, more of a "fashion" line when compared to their traditional suits. Check out the lapels and angled besom pockets; not very conservative business dress-like is it?

Personally would not wear that for a wedding.

Aquascutum Ltd is designed by Nick Hart (of Spencer Hart). It is the fashion forward line with slim lapel, slimmer cut and shorter length. Believe to be half canvassed however I have no first hand experience thus not 100% certain.

The LTD line is pretty nice, I owned a few sports jackets myself, but they are ridiculously slim and short, much more so then say RLBL. The mainline stuff is even nice, but more traditionally cut. Its all made in Turkey or other parts of Europe, not Italy or England, but the quality is good and you can get them for very low prices. At retail its pretty **** though.
