Just something I found

Something I found while looking for "linen 3 piece suit".

Wow, do Jos. A Bank suits really look like this? Not bad! 118 dollars! Are they slim fit just like this picture suggests?

That is some PHENOMENAL pattern matching on the stripes near the pockets and shoulders especially.

I can't claim experience, but I'm still going to guess that it's pinned.

The banner on the JAB link says up to 50% off, and then this linen coat is 80% off! Regularly $598, now $118! It looks good too, and while I'm not a huge fan of JAB, How can you go wrong", especially at $118! BTW: To be clear, this ad is for a coat and not a suit! http://www.josbank.com/JAB_Partner.p...k_Id=2&afsrc=1

Don't get this! I ordered this during their last big sale a month or two back for about $75 but returned it right after I received it. The linen was very poor in quality (the worst I've ever come across), incredibly stiff, and did not drape well at all. The construction around the shoulders was also pretty awful and used to much padding.

The other items in the Joseph line that are on sale are very nice however. I have a couple of the suits as well as the plaid sportcoat which I've been very happy with. I recommend sizing down one jacket size if you get anything from it though, as the shoulders will run slightly larger than normal.

Of course it's pinned. It is possible to slim suits down to look like that with the help of any decent tailor though, assuming you have the figure for it.
