Suits really don't get more classically Ivy than these! Made in Philadelphia by H. Freeman (NOT Hickey-Freeman!) both are in absolutely superb condition, and appear to have been worn very sparingly, if at all. I also have a beautiful GRAIL tweed suit from H. Freeman in the same size range, listed separately.

At just $75 each shipped in CONUS, these are a steal--but, as always, offers are very welcome! International inquires are also very welcome, with shipping at cost.

1) CLASSIC H. Freeman "Naturalaire" high-roll 3/2 sack suit in navy.

Made for the now-defunct The English Shop of Princeton suits don't come more much classically Ivy than this. Fully canvassed and beautifully cut, this is a very high-roll 3/2 sack suit (i.e., one that presents as a three-button front, with the lapel roll starting just above the strictly non-functional top button). It's half-lined, and features the classic tradly two button cuff and very natural shoulders--it is, after all, the "Naturalaire" model, which is arguably THE most Ivy of all H. Freeman's cuts! It has a single center vent. The trousers are, of course, flat-front and cuffed.

Plus, this is in a very desirable size! :)

Asking just $75, OR OFFER, shipped in CONUS, for this beauty.

Tagged a 39L, but as always, please see Measurements:

Chest: 19 3/4
Sleeve: 26 (+2 1/4)
Length: 31 1/2
Shoulder: 17 1/2

Waist, laid flat: 16 1/4
Inseam: 31 (+1 1/2), with 1 3/4 cuff.

2) CLASSIC H. Freeman 3/2 sack suit in grey pinstripe.

The brother of the navy suit listed above, this was also made for the now-defunct The English Shop of Princeton--suits don't come more much classically Ivy than this! Fully canvassed and beautifully cut, this is also a very high-roll 3/2 sack suit (i.e., one that presents as a three-button front, with the lapel roll starting just above the strictly non-functional top button). It's half-lined, and features the classic tradly two button cuff and very natural shoulders. The trousers are, of course, flat-front and cuffed.

Plus, this is, of course, in the same very desirable size as its companion! :)

Asking just $75, OR OFFER, shipped in CONUS, for this beauty.

Measurements:

Chest: 20 1/2
Sleeve: 25 3/4 (+3)
Length: 30 3/4
Shoulders: 17 1/2

Waist, laid flat: 16 1/2
Inseam: 32 (+1), with 1 3/4 cuffs.
