I'm sure many of you remember when I picked this up last year....it's a GREAT suit, very well made and well fitting. But I've only worn it once and it's just sitting in the closet, and realistically, I probably won't wear it again since I've been wearing my own Thick as Thieves suits, for obvious reasons. I'd rather see someone else get some good use out of it rather than potentially become moth food.
So I've decided to unload it and give an SFer first crack before it goes on ebay next week if there are no takers.
It's a 3 button roll 2 Thom Browne size 2 suit. Size 2 equates to a normal fitting 38 or a tight fitting 40, if you want to wear it "shrunken" a la Mr Browne. The fabric is a nice grey wool herringbone. It has a nice heft and hand to it. I would GUESS it's weight at about 11-12 oz
Jacket specs:
-across front shoulder 17"
-chest 40"
-stomach 37"
-base of collar to bottom 29"
-sleeve 25" (note: this has FUNCTIONAL BUTTONS at cuff so shortening it won't be an easy task)
-fully canvassed
-double vented
Trouser specs:
33" waist
no beltloops, has 2 button buckleback
fully lined to bottom hem
28.5" inseam (hemmed to my "no break" point so it's shorter than a normal length, which is probably how you should wear it too. about 1.5" to let down)
Here's a pic of me wearing it from the first and only time I've worn it:
and pics of the suit. Despite how much we like to make fun of Mr Browne, his garments are made with an extremely high level of craftsmanship.
Price: $350 shipped within USA. Intl add an extra $15
payment by PAYPAL only.
