thank God I didn't pay the retail on this Brioni, but I really really like it-- there is one more avail, I in a 40L from the same source, if anyone is interested. Â Altho it is a cashmere (20%) and wool (80%) mix, it is a medium weight cloth that feels like you're not wearing a jacket at all-- wonderful, light as a whisper: Double vented, buttons already on sleeves (I can live without functional sleeve buttons on this one-- the three false buttonholes are done very well)

Nice pattern matching on the suit and sounds like a wonderful fabric. I'm a 40L and waiting for a spectacular suit at a bargain price to fall into my lap (could use another suit, but need shoes, odd jackets, and overcoat more urgently). Can you provide a link for the suit, so I can check it out? BTW, Renault78law is actively looking for a 40L suit.

Found your 40L suit on ebay. Very nice, but 34 waist too large for me (also looking for blue, as I already have a dark gray suit). I'll have to pass, but you might alert Renault78law.
