Retails new for over $2,000 - yours for much much less. I bought this for my upcoming wedding, but on taking it to the tailor, I realized that my shoulders are 19", whereas the shoulders on this jacket are only 18". I'm literally brokenhearted about not being able to wear this, but my loss, your gain.

This tux has all the right trimmings: grosgrain peak lapels, ventless jacket, and single-pleated pants with no belt loops, and a grosgrain stripe down the outseam. I would rate the jacket as very slim fit, as it is a drop 7. If you have any questions, let me know.

Jacket:

S2S: 18"
P2P: 21.5"
Waist: 18.5"
Length (BOC): 32.5"

Pants:

Waist: 33.5"
Length: unhemmed.

Dropped price to $475.

Love those lapels.

What's the sleeve measurement?

Sleeves are basted, sort of unfinished, with buttons included. Somewhere between 26 and 27 inches, would be my guess.

Not having any RLBL suits, its tough for me to say. I can say that its more of a slim fit than the Zegna sport coat I have, and certainly more slim fitting than an ordinary 40L. From what i've heard of RLBL, they have some pretty heavy shoulders. There's very little shoulder padding on this tux, and only slight roping at the sleevehead.
