That's a great dogtooth pattern. Suit looks nice, lots of potential to dress it up/down in different ways

my sentiments exactly. Thank goodness I'm a 40R (well, more a 41R). But still very very tempted. Even though I have too many suits now, even though I have spent too much too

Sure! The jacket would work as a casual sportcoat, maybe with cords? Plus, naturally, omitting the waistcoat (althoughj I find it hard to do that

). How about the trousers alone?

I love it, Especially since you can use pants or jacket separately.

Is there a rear buckle adjuster on the trousers?
