Okay, closet cull 2 of 3 full steam ahead:
Eidos Gray Fresco summer suit in 42L (52L EU). Decided the Eidos fit, at least in their tailored items, is just not for me. Wears very cool in hot weather obviously. Replaced this with a Canali Gray Glen Check summer suit.
Richard James very British-cut sport coat in Navy Glen Check (or is it Glen Plaid?) Anyway, smashing jacket but it's a 42R and I'm a 42L. I'd keep it if I weren't a Styleforum-dude. It's a hair too short and therefore mocks me. Very soft fabric and cool hacking pockets. Am considering a Steed commission in similar Fox Bros. Flannel to replace this.
Was totally on the fence about sending this one in (always sounds disingenuous but there it is...). Fabulous Oxxford in lightweight and very bold fabric. I went two seasons without wearing it so maybe someone else will get more use out of it! Labeled a 40 but will fit 40-42.
My only vintage suit. Very nice fabric and construction with cool lapels. Replaced by my first commission from Steed. Plenty of material to go back out larger in this one if needed.
