SOLD!!!I am selling this Kiton charcoal gray suit. I bought this suit used and got a good deal on it, but never got to wear it. I was planning on altering it, but after getting advice from a tailor, it would be too much trouble and expense, while not guaranteeing a great fit. Anyway, on to the details:

Asking $650 USD $600. This suit fits like a 44R (I wear a 42R). I cannot find any tags that say the size either in US or EU. It is a 3 roll 2. Great craftsmanship and finish. A note about fabric: I don’t know what kind of wool it is, but it is very lightweight and breathable. Again, the main tag has washed away only some sort of serial # remains (see pix). Side vents. Surgeon’s cuffs (all 4 buttons on both arms are workable). Pants are double pleated and pants are uncuffed. There is a mini hidden pocket on top the right pleats. Condition of suit is very good to excellent.

Chest: 22.5” (armpit to armpit on back)
Shoulder: 20” (seam to seam on back)
Arm: 25” (shoulder seam to end of arm)
Overall Length: 31” (bottom of collar to hem)
Pants waist: 36” (you can probably let out 1” to 1.5” more)
Inseam: 29” (you can probably let out another 2”)

Be glad to answer any questions about this suit. Thanks for visiting.

I have a Kiton suit in the exact same fabric. Mine says Diamante Blue so its Super 150. Russo Capri is a famous little boutique store on the Island of Capri, a 30 - 60 minute boat ride from Napoli. A 19 inch shoulder on a 44R Kiton seems rather small, then again, Kiton is just as inconsistent as other famour Italian suitmakers. Good luck on the sale.

Thanks, Wicky. I rechecked my measurements and the shoulder is, in fact, 20". Must have gotten my notes mixed up. Edited my original post.

Maybe Kitons run large. I own 4 Belvests in 44R and three Isaias also in 44R, all with more or less natural
shoulders. They all measure 19". I have a Battistoni in the same size but with a slightly extended shoulder
and it measures around 20"

BTW, what is the trouser rise?
