[COLOR=222222]Gentlemen,[/COLOR]
[COLOR=222222] [/COLOR]
[COLOR=222222]I own an insane amount of clothes, mainly suits and jackets from some very nice brands, but I lost a ton of weight in the past year, ugh... [/COLOR]
[COLOR=222222] [/COLOR]
[COLOR=222222]Rather then spend another fortune making alterations on everything, I'm willing to part with some suits or jackets, all size EU56R (US 44R or 46R), to recover some closet space and at least a small part of my investment. Heck, I'll even sell some shirts and shoes if there are takers. All very nice classic stuff, as you can see from my WIWT Tumblr blog:[/COLOR]
[COLOR=222222] [/COLOR]
[COLOR=222222][COLOR=1155CC]dirnelli.tumblr.com[/COLOR][/COLOR]
[COLOR=222222] [/COLOR]
[COLOR=222222] [/COLOR]Have a look at the post further down this thread, listing all prices and links to pictures of each individual item up for sale.
[COLOR=222222] [/COLOR]
[COLOR=222222]My height is 6 ft. 1 in. or 1m82. [/COLOR]I already took in some suits and jackets as I lost weight over the course of a year, so most of my suits and jackets still have extra material inside that can be let back out, if you happen to be closer to my previous weight -- I have slimmed down from 105 kg. at my max weight to 88 kg. today, and still dropping... At my max weight my trouser waistband was 40 in./100 cm.
 
Here are my basic measurements:
 
BOC length: 31.5 in/79.5 cm, give or take 1-2 cm, depending on the jacket. 
Shoulder to cuff: 25.5 in/65 cm, but this is easy to alter. 
Shoulder to shoulder: 19,75 in/50.5 cm, give or take 1 cm, depending on the jacket. 
Trouser inseam: 31 in/76.5 cm, but this is easy to alter. 
 
My shirts were 17.5 in/44cm collar, standard sleeve length, if interested. Shoes are UK 8.5/9 or EU 42/43.
 
Lastly, if you've got nice suits & jackets but have put on weight (let's hear it for marriage & kids, been there), drop me a line about trading clothes, I'm open to discussion.

i too have weight but from a higher starting point than you. i am now down to 228 pounds from 286 and nithing fits. i would love a blue blazer, a nice grey suit, some shirts etc. i am a 46 in jacket and 40 inch waist. i am still losing weight so something a little tighter would probably be wise. i have around 2k to spend. what would you recommend from your unbelievable collection. my inseam is a 3, i'm about 5'11".

i should have proofed my submission before hitting the button. 30 inch inseam. sorry about the multiple typos. i would love 2 or 3 blazers (one must be navy mabye two if they are vastly different), a grey suit and perhaps a nice navy pinstripe suit. an overcoat would be wonderful and maybe you can throw in some shirts. i have lost a lot of weight, have 3 kids and not a boatload of money. what can you do for 2k? i would absolutely put them to good use. appreciate your time.

I have other blazers in different colors, what kind are you looking for?

Do you wear DB?

What neck size on shirts these days?

For blazers, something that would go nicely with jeans, so informal, yet formal. I've never worn DB. My neck is a 17 to 17 1/2, with a length generally of 34". The neck is not usually the issue. The issue is sometimes in the stomach area where it can be too tight(something I am working on!!)

I'd be interested in the Kiton, Huntsman, Oxford, Maurice, & Chester. I'd love a blazer or two if possible. Shirts would be great and would really help. Do you think we could do all of that for 2k? Also, are all of those items 46R? I am concerned if I lose much more weight I might experience the same issue as you have. A mix of smaller and larger might work.

Hi,

If were going to get serious now, I suggest we move this conversation to private message, so that the price negotiations are not public.

Also, regarding shirts, I have shirts of various different qualities and prices, from budget to super expensive , so you would have to tell me your estimated budget per shirt that you're looking for. Regarding size, all of my shirts are basically 17 1/2 inch collars , so you'll be fine there. As far as waist area, I'm pretty sure it will work as well. I also have various collar shapes, most of them are standard splayed car, but I do have some tab collar, white collar, and pin collar shirts as well, if interested.
