FS: StyleForum exclusive, two awesome Hickey Freeman coats to fit a 48/50.

[Bergdorf Goodwill]

Hey guys. I've had these for a while, but haven't had much time to put them up here. I am still dealing with car repair issues, so money is increasingly tight, hence a need to sell some more things.

I have these two awesome Hickey Freeman coats. The first is an overcoat, the second is the most British looking thing in the entire world.

This first overcoat is stunning, and the underlying color really pops up close. From farther away, it reads much more conservatively. I cannot find a fabric tag within the coat, but I believe it is either cashmere or a cashmere blend, as it is exceptionally soft and has a fantastic weight. Do note the nearly imperceptible holes in the fabric, which I have taken great care to document.

Measurements are as follows: underarm to underarm 22.5", underarm to cuff 17", total length 42".

The other coat is absurdly British and I love it. Bold lapels, breast pocket, leather-wrapped buttons, etc. It measures as follows: underarm to underarm 22.5", underarm to cuff 16", shoulder to shoulder 18.5", total length 39.5". It is in flawless condition.

These are both pretty heavy items, so please take that into account as far as pricing goes. I would like $100 shipped for the first overcoat, $75 shipped for the second, or $160 for both. Hope this is to someone's liking!

Sounds like you are referring to 38/40 (US size) as opposed to 48/50 (Euro size)...

In US sizing, this would correspond to a 42 or 44, I would think? I am not the best at ascertaining sizes, obviously. Definitely strikes me as larger than most US 38/40 stuff I have experience with. This is why I make sure to post measurements.

with ~45 chest, that's probably a 41-42R if you were talking about a suit jacket, but these are overcoats, so you need to leave room for them to go over a suit coat, unless you want to wear them over a t-shirt and have them be fitted. That's why I suggested 38-40R although I agree that they might fit a bit loosely for someone who is a true 38R.

Makes sense. Hopefully I can edit the title for proper US sizing. It was embarrassing enough accidentally posting this in the "Fine Living" section when I wasn't paying attention to my browsing.

Thanks.
