Hickey Freeman LTD Suit - How much should I pay for one?

[uluvbs]

I know they are fused, but other than that, how bad are HF LTD suits, and what do you think is a fair price to pay for one at a discount store?

I paid $340 for mine today but am wondering if that was such a good deal.

Thank you.

BB half canvassed suit is on sale for $598, so go figure.

It's half canvassed. Sounds like a good deal.

I have purchased numerous HF Collection (Madison, etc.) suits on sale at NM Last Call and Dillards for $250 - $500. Collection suits are a significant step above LTD and worth the extra cost to me. It all comes down to what you like and what fits.

I think HF LTD also makes Burberry suit....that might also be an alternative you can explore. Burberry sometime can have some fashion foward patterns.

Taxgenius: LTD is half-canvassed, or did I misread that post?

Twotone: Do you know if the fabric quality of the Collection line is better, too?

The Burberry were similarly priced to the HF Ltd. during the Nordstrom sale and I much preferred their cut to the boxier HF. In fact, I've picked up a couple of the Burberrys at recent sales (one at Franco's, one at Nordstrom)

I paid a similar amount for mine. However, it looks terrible, cut just isn't right for me.

Fabric quality is better on the Collection as well, they often use Loro Piana Tasmanian super 110s or 120s wools.
