Up for sale is an incredible new-with-tags Corneliani mainline suit. It comes with a FREE new-with-tags staple tie. (See selection below)

The fabric is a wool / mohair blend with a matte finish. Mohair is beneficial in the warmer months. It helps to suits crisper and cooler. (See: http://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/style/...yle-news-personal-style-fashion-richard-james)

The pattern is similar to "nailhead," but it can only really be seen up close. (Hence, it is functionally solid, as seen in the pictures taken from a few feet away) It has a great textured hand, and will breathe well in warm weather. Clearly from one of the top mills in Italy or England.

The model is the sought-after "Leader," which is Corneliani's slimmest cut. Flat front pants. Recent season.

The gray fabric and full canvas construction makes this suit a true staple workhorse for SF newcomers and regulars alike. You will not be disappointed!

Suit Specs:

-Made in Italy by Corneliani
-Light weight fabric (85% virgin wool / 15% mohair) --- will also work in the colder months, but the mohair is of particular help in the summer
-Full canvas construction
-High armholes
-Low two-button stance
-Double vents (factory vent closure threads still attached)
-Jacket fully lined with bemberg
-Flat front pants
-Slim cut with great trim waist
-Will generally need little or no alterations off the rack (aside from pants hemming)

Brooks Brothers Fitzgerald half canvas suits go for $998. I am offering this full canvas Corneliani at $775. The fits are very similar, but obviously this is of much higher construction quality.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The MSRP on Corneliani mainline suits is about $2100, which turns into over $2200 when you factor in local sales tax. So consider this a deal. With a FREE new-with-tags staple tie added for good measure! (See selection below)

$775 shipped CONUS + FREE tie
$735 shipped CONUS + FREE tie
$699 shipped CONUS + FREE tie

Inquire for international shipping rates.

PayPal or Postal Money order. As is implied with all SF classified listings, the sale is final. Sold as is.

First one to pay gets the item. I reserve the right to issue refunds.

Looks a lot like the suit Cary Grant wore in North By Northwest. Badass.
