Biggest suit I've ever purchased for resale. 54L US.
Gotta say, I love it when I get those big boy suits, as they flip fast and for top dollar. I list them for twice as much (or more) as the common sizes, and out they go. I guess it's supply and demand, where the big guys don't get as many options, so they jump on them. Always a good kop! One thing to watch out for, as I'm sure you know, is that the label size is rarely the actual size, as they've usually been tailored quite a bit, so be very precise with measurements and fit assessment when listing.

That is exactly my experience as well. Recently found an EZ Trofeo that measured out a full 2 sizes smaller than the tags. Anything over 46L and higher end labels seems to move quickly.

Yeah, tricky one that. The "Gable" is a classic Samuelsohn fit, and while they're based in Montreal, they acquired Hickey Freeman in 2013 or so, so I'm going to say this is a Samuelsohn, made in the USA at the former HF factory in Rochester, NY.
Amazing! I picked up two Samuelsohn Gable jackets at the bins as well and I was wondering if they were related. I'll have to compare fit between them. Thank you!

My local honey hole has a 2$ rack which means buy it now or its going to live on a farm in the country.
Susu linen drawstring trousers, J. Crew seersucker and a brand I was totally ignorant of but the construction and material were to good to leave, Ami Alexandre Mattiussi.

Not so much the 2$ and I'm probably not alone in this quandary, but where to put it if its not immediately flipped.
My backlog want stop growing. Luckily its 54 euro and fits me perfect. Always room for one more nice piece pour moi.
