Brooks outlet: Loro Piana cord suits for $80

[scruff]

I have an extra suit in a 39s if anyone is interested. I'll do a proper posting on Monday, but if you're hungry for it, I can ship it out tonight. It'll be $ 98 priority mail.

Kick-ass, I ordered one. They didn't have them in the outlet nearest me, but I called the number, Diane answered and helped me out with extreme graciousness.

I got mine. The corduroy is very soft. I do not know if I will keep it though.

Do they carry it in a 36s?

Why not?

I do not think that it's for me. The cut is a little generous and while the value is superb, I think I'm looking for a different cut.

Looking for a 38R or 38S. Can anyone help a brother to the north?

Mine arrived and the jacket is indeed a 40R and the pants might be a 40 to match, even though tag reads 34. Back to Brooks it goes. I will lose no sleep over it.

Looks like I found this a little too late. Does anyone know where I might be able to round up a 36s/37s?? The BB outlet near me doesn't have them and the number from earlier in this thread is sold out of that size.

Try Jeffersonville Ohio . They can aslo "search other stores". Shipping about 9 bucks ,return to any Brooks retail store for full refund. No time limit.

Mine came yesterday. My 46R was right on (in the jacket, pants were a little large). Since these are Italian made, maybe the conversion from EU to American sizing is what made some of the smaller sizes seem tent like. IIRC that conversion is 10 down from the EU at around size 40, but for me at least, it's more like 12 (EU 58 down to American 46). So, if these suits are running large, a EU 56 down to American 46 would fit, which seems to be the case. Confused??

Nice enough fabric, great style, good color, good fit (except more shoulder than I like, but I'm spoiled).

Since I had a $20 gift card it set me back $69 with shipping. Couldn't ask for a better deal. Knock around pants, jacket to dress up or down, and a casual suit to boot. Showed the wife identical looking suit in Ben Silver catalog and told her I just saved $700!

Thanks, again Doc!

Did you make that posting? I'd like to see some detailed photos.

I got mine, and I liked it so much, I wore it on TV the next day!

That's awfully cool.
