Is this Gianluca Napoli a good buy at $265?

Did you link to it from the aaac banner? If not go back through aaac to get another 15% off.

Grab it! I've always thought Isaia is underrated compared to other more well known Italian makers in their price range.

And while this is the diffusion brand of Isaia, at this price, it's a deal!

This is SF after all so perhaps he should link through this site.

Thanks guys! Trigger pulled. I was already using an extra 15% off code via bradsdeals.com and they only let you use one at checkout. I still think I came out pretty well. It retailed for $999 STP had it for $389, with the 20% off clearance the priced dropped to $311, with my 15% off link it dropped to $265. I used Google Checkout which dropped an additional $10 off the price, so I ended up paying $255 total. By the way, this is my first suit purchase since reading these forums over the last couple of months. I've learned so much about good quality/stylish clothing. It feels good to be armed with so much info when shopping at walk-in retail stores and be able to tell the difference between crap and quality. I get complimented by knowledgable salespeople and given the deer in headlights look from salespeople who don't have a clue. Also, for anyone who cares, I live close to an Allen Edmonds factory outlet and this weekend I was able to pickup a pair of the black Fairfax on closeout at $167.

Congrats. Great purchase + you can return it if you don't like it or if it doesn't fit.

Keep in mind this is a Gianluca suit, not Isaia. Price still seems great and the return policy is good, so little risk.

The description for my Gianluca in transit says Fabric by Lanificio Cerruti. I'm guessing that's supposed to be a big deal? I think I read some posts on Cerutti fabric that said its pretty good.
